NO COMMENTS. OTHER THAN TO NOTE THAT OUR CHAIRMAN IS OUT THIS EVENING.
WE'LL WELCOME HIM BACK AT THE NEXT MEETING. AND ALSO, WE HAVE A PRETTY SHORT AGENDA, SO I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE TOO COMPLICATED HERE, BUT IF YOU'RE THE APPLICANT OR YOU WISH TO COME IN TO THE PUBLIC HEARING, YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME UP AND MAKE ANY COMMENTS.
WE HAVE A TIME LIMIT HERE, BUT LIKE I SAID, I DON'T THINK IT'LL BE AN ISSUE TONIGHT.
WITH THAT SAID, WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER 5 ON THE AGENDA.
[5. Consider: Approving the minutes for the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting held on August 7, 2025. ]
CONSIDERATION OF THE APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FOR THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 7TH, 2025.EVERYONE'S BEEN PROVIDED A COPY OF THOSE. AND IF THERE'S NO COMMENTS.
BE WILLING TO ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THE MEETING MINUTES FROM AUGUST THE 7TH OF 2025 AS PRESENTED. WE HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND.
SECOND. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE.
THAT ITEM CARRIES 5 TO 0. THAT'S KIND OF A WEIRD LOOK.
OKAY. THAT ITEM CARRIES 5-0. NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 6X.
[6. Consider: ZA25-0053, Plat Showing for Lots 19 and 20, H. Decker No. 438 Addition, on property legally described as Tract 1B04K1 and 1B04K2A, H. Decker Survey Abstract No. 438 and located at 1207 and 1209 Woodsey Ct., City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas. Current Zoning: “MH” Manufactured Housing District. SPIN Neighborhood #8. ]
ZA25-0053. AND THIS A PLAT SHOWING FOR LOTS 19 AND 20, H.DECKER NO. 438 ADDITION GOOD EVENING, VICE CHAIRMAN AND COMMISSION. I'LL BE PRESENTING PLAT SHOWING FOR 1207 AND 1209 WOODSEY COURT.
THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING FOR PLAT SHOWING FOR LOT 19 AND LOT 20.
THIS IS AERIAL VIEW FROM WOODSEY COURT. THE FUTURE LAND USE IS MIXED USE.
THE CURRENT ZONING IS MANUFACTURED HOUSING. THIS IS THE EXHIBIT OF THE PLOT SHOWING THIS IS IN A LARGE EXHIBIT OF THE PLAT SHOWING. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR THE MINIMUM OF 5 FOOT SIDEWALK REQUIRED BY THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE NUMBER 483. THE VARIANCE IS TO ALLOW FOR NO SIDEWALKS.
THEY'RE REQUESTING THIS VARIANCE BASED ON THE ABSENCE OF SIDEWALKS, ALONG WOODSEY COURT ISSUES WITH THE STORMWATER RUNOFF AND BAR DITCHES THAT ARE LOCATED BETWEEN THE ROAD AND THE PROPERTY FENCE. THIS IS A STREET VIEW FROM 1207 WOODSEY COURT.
AND I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND, DENNIS, JUST TO CLARIFY WE DON'T NEED A PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS BECAUSE IT'S A PLAT.
YOU DO NOT. IF THERE'S ANYONE HERE WISHES TO SPEAK.
YOU CAN CERTAINLY ENTERTAIN THAT, BUT THERE IS NOT A REQUIRED PUBLIC HEARING.
OKAY. IS THE APPLICANT HERE ON ITEM NUMBER 6? ALL RIGHT. DOES NOT LOOK LIKE WE HAVE AN APPLICANT.
WE'LL NOTE THAT FOR THE RECORD. ANY COMMENTS? QUESTIONS? I MEAN, IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. THERE'S NO OTHER SIDEWALK. SO OTHER THAN THE APPLICANT NOT BEING HERE.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS? WELL, WHAT ABOUT IN THE PAST? I KNOW WE'VE DONE THIS WHERE WE JUST HAD THE FUNDS ESCROW WHENEVER.
WHEN IT WAS REQUIRED TO HAVE SIDEWALKS, AND THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT AT THE TIME.
DENNIS, IS THAT SOMETHING THAT MAYBE THAT WE COULD MAYBE ENCOURAGE THEM OR MAYBE NOTE IT FOR COUNCIL'S CONSIDERATION AS OPPOSED T. YEAH, CERTAINLY. IF IT'S THE COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION THAT THE COUNCIL LOOK AT ESCROWING THE, THE COST OF THAT YOU KNOW, PRIOR TO FINAL COMPLETION OF THE BUILDING, THEN YOU CAN CERTAINLY MAKE THAT RECOMMENDATION.
OKAY. PART OF THE VARIANCE. SO I MEAN, I WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF NOTING THAT FOR THE THE MOTION, I DON'T KNOW THAT NECESSARILY IT MAKES SENSE TO REQUIRE IT AT THIS POINT, BECAUSE I'M JUST THINKING ALL THE OTHER PROPERTY OWNERS ALONG THERE HAVEN'T HAD TO DO THAT. BUT THAT'S JUST MY THOUGHT. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY COMMENTS? ALL RIGHT.
[00:05:03]
DOESN'T NECESSARILY SEEM LIKE THE SIDEWALKS WILL EVER GO IN THERE, RIGHT? YEAH. I THINK WE JUST MAYBE SUGGEST THAT COUNCIL CONSIDER IT AND KIND OF LEAVE IT AT THAT.BECAUSE I'M WITH YOU. I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. WELL AND I HAVE A COMMENT ON THE ESCROW BECAUSE I THINK THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TYPICAL SIDEWALK COST IS, BUT WITH THIS SETUP, IT LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT BE IF IT WAS REALLY TO BE BUILT, WOULD HAVE DIRT WORK AND ALL THAT TOO.
SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE GOING TO GET INTO ALL THAT, WHETHER IT'S JUST A PLACEHOLDER OR NOTHING, BUT I DON'T. I HAVE AN AGREEMENT THAT A SIDEWALK IS AN ESSENTIAL.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE CASE ZA25-0053, REFERENCING THE STAFF REPORT DATED AUGUST 21ST OF 2025, AND ALSO REFERENCING THE PLAT REVIEW SUMMARY OF NUMBER 1 DATED 8-21-25 WITH THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE MONEY FOR THE SIDEWALK FUTURE INSTALLATION BE ESCROWED AND FOR FUTURE EXPANSION. ALL RIGHT. ARE YOU RECOMMENDING THAT WE VOTE ON REQUIRING THE ESCROW FUNDS, OR THAT WE ASK THEM TO DISCUSS THAT WITH COUNCIL? DISCUSS IT WITH COUNCIL. OKAY. IS THAT GOOD? FOR THE RECORD, DENNIS? YES, SIR. OKAY. HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE.
ALL RIGHT. THAT ITEM CARRIES 5-O. NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 7.
[7. Consider: ZA25-0035, Zoning Change and Development Plan for 1965 and 1975 N. White Chapel Blvd., on property described as Lot 2, Block A, and Lot 1, Block A, Thrasher Addition, City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas. Current Zoning: “AG” Agricultural District. Requested Zoning: “RPUD” Residential Planned Unit Development. SPIN Neighborhood #3. PUBLIC HEARING]
: ZA25-0035.THIS IS AN AERIAL VIEW OFF OF NORTH WHITE CHAPEL BOULEVARD AND EAST KIRKWOOD BOULEVARD.
THE FUTURE LAND USE IS MIXED USE. THE CURRENT ZONING IS AGRICULTURE.
HERE IS A STREET VIEW FROM NORTH WHITE CHAPEL LOOKING EAST.
THIS IS ANOTHER STREET VIEW LOOKING NORTHEAST.
THIS IS THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PLAN. THESE ARE THE REGULATIONS COMPARED TO THE ZONING DISTRICT.
SF 20 A, PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN WITH THE 10% COMMON OPEN SPACE.
TREE PRESERVATION PLAN WITH THE EXISTING COVERAGE OF 22% AND TREE CANOPY PROPOSED TO REMAIN 46%.
THIS EXHIBIT IS THE PROPOSED DRAINAGE, EXHIBIT OF THE PRELIMINARY UTILITY PLAN.
AS OF NOW, THERE'S NO SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNER RESPONSES, AND THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED A VIDEO.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT.
ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? THIS CASE WAS ESSENTIALLY BEFORE US A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO.
SLIGHT DIFFERENCES. DIFFERENT ZONING CATEGORY AND WHATNOT.
IT WASN'T APPROVED. AND THE PRIMARY REASON WHY IT WASN'T APPROVED BECAUSE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE HOMEOWNER THAT WAS TO THE NORTH OF THIS PROPERTY, THAT THESE 2 LOTS DIDN'T MEET THE 30 ZERO ZERO ZERO SQUARE FOOT MINIMUM FOR ABUTTING THAT LOT.
[00:10:04]
HAVE THERE BEEN CHANGES IN THE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THAT OWNER AND THIS PARTICULAR OWNER? I'LL LEAVE THAT FOR THE APPLICANT TO RESPOND. BUT AS OF NOW, THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMENTS FROM THE NEIGHBOR ON THE NORTH.AND AS FOR THE ABUTTING PROPERTY, THEY HAVE INCLUDED IT IN THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. IS THE APPLICANT HERE ON ITEM NUMBER 8? YOU PROBABLY REMEMBER, BUT DO US A FAVOR. STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
AND. MY NAME IS ASHRAF ALI KHAN AT 1203 SPRING LANE, SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS, 76092.
I'M THE PROPERTY OF 1965 97 OWNER. OKAY. DO ME A FAVOR.
AND SPEAKING OF THE MIC, IF YOU COULD A LITTLE BIT MORE. CAN YOU HEAR ME? JUST HAVING A HARD TIME HEARING YOU ON THE. MY NAME IS ASTROPOLI KHAN.
I'M THE PROPERTY OWNER OF 1965 1975 NORTH WHITE CHAPEL ROAD, SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.
AND I HAVE ANDREW, MY BUILDER UP HERE, WHO CAN REPRESENT ME UP HERE.
OKAY. ALL RIGHT. AND YOU HEARD THE QUESTION FROM THE COMMISSIONER.
I MEAN, WE'VE SEEN THIS BEFORE. SO KIND OF WALK US THROUGH WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS APPLICATION FROM THE LAST ONE? THE LAST APPLICATION WAS THE SF 28 THAT YOU GUYS ARE PROPOSING FOR 30,000.
AND WE TRIED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN, BUT, YOU KNOW, THE ISSUE UP HERE FOR THE UTILITY LINES AND ALL THE STUFF IS COMING UP THERE, IT'S NOT FEASIBLE. SO LIKE LAST TIME YOU GUYS PROPOSED TO LIKE MAKE IT 3 LOTS, IT WAS NOT FEASIBLE.
AND IT'S NOT, YOU KNOW, THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE LOOK.
YOU KNOW, IT'S ALL, YOU KNOW, TRIANGLE WAYS AND EVERYTHING. SO NOBODY WANT TO HAVE THAT LOTS.
IT'S SIMPLE. NOT SQUARE LOTS. ALL RIGHT. ANY COMMENTS FROM YOUR BUILDER? NOT THAT YOU HAVE TO. I'M JUST. OH, NO. I MEAN, DO ME A FAVOR BEFORE YOU TALK.
GIVE ME YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.
MY NAME IS ANDREW HADDOCK. I LIVE IN. I LIVE IN HAZEL, 305 GLADE VALLEY ROAD IN HAZEL.
I MEAN, WE'RE WE'RE GETTING RID OF 2 HOUSES THAT WERE BUILT IN 84 AND 86, RESPECTIVELY.
YOU GOT ALL NEW ON THE LEFT WHEN YOU PASS IT.
I THINK IT HELPS OUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS A WHOLE.
ALL RIGHT. SO I HAVEN'T YOU KNOW, THE PROPERTY HAS BEEN VACANT FROM ALMOST 8 MONTHS.
I HAVEN'T PROPOSED ANY RENT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO BASICALLY I WAS ABOUT TO DEMOLISH IT AND KEEP IT OPEN A LOT.
SO THAT'S WHY JUST LETTING YOU KNOW, LIKE MY PROPOSAL IS TO JUST BUILD IT, YOU KNOW, FOR FEASIBLE FOR ALL THE COMMUNITY WISE AND EVERYTHING AND SPEAK TO, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF COMMUNITY WISE TILL THEY'RE WILLING TO ACCEPT THAT, YOU KNOW, SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE CONSIDERING FROM YOU GUYS.
ALL RIGHT. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? SO BEFORE YOU WERE PLANNING ON THIS BEING LIKE A FAMILY COMPOUND, IS THAT SORT OF THE SITUATION YOU GOT NOW OR ARE YOU JUST GOING TO PUT THESE LOTS UP FOR GENERAL SALE TO ANYBODY THAT WANTS TO BUY THEM? SO YOU'RE TALKING WITH THE SALES OF THE LOT. IT'S GOING TO BE OPEN FOR PUBLIC OKAY.
IT'S NOT FOR, YOU KNOW, ANY FAMILY OR ANYBODY LIKE THAT.
IT'S NOT FOR FAMILY OR FRIENDS OR ANYBODY. OKAY.
ALL RIGHT. THANKS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? THAT ADJOINED THE MORE THAN 1 ACRE LOT TO THE NORTH ARE NOT AT LEAST 30,000FT².
AND BECAUSE OF THAT, WE WEREN'T ABLE TO APPROVE YOUR REQUEST.
YOU HAVE THE SAME SITUATION NOW. WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT.
AND HAVE YOU APPROACHED THE LANDOWNER TO THE NORTH TO FIND OUT IF HE WILL SUPPORT THIS REQUEST? SO THE LAST MEETING WE HAD AND EVERYTHING, I TALKED TO HIM PERSONALLY, YOU KNOW, HE WAS HERE AND I TOLD HIM TO COME BY HIS OPPOSING AND HE WAS OKAY WITH THAT.
[00:15:01]
THEN HE SAID, IF HE'S GOING TO GIVE ME THE DEVELOPMENT, THEN I SAID, OKAY.AND, YOU KNOW, I SAY, WHY DO I HAVE TO GIVE A DEVELOPMENT TO YOU TO MAKE IT OKAY, SO HE WANTS ME TO BRIBE HIM, BASICALLY SAY, HEY, OKAY, GIVE ME THIS PROJECT TO ME, THEN I CAN DO IT.
SO HE'S IN A SOME KIND OF FAMILY BUSINESS AND EVERYTHING.
YOU KNOW, I OWN IT AND I WANT TO BUILD SOMETHING.
SO THAT'S WHAT HE WANTED FROM ME. AND ACCORDING TO SF 28 THAT, YOU KNOW, WE REQUESTED LAST TIME IT WAS A 30,000 MEDIUM. THAT WAS IT. BUT AGAIN, I THINK THE ARCHITECT CAN ANSWER BETTER ON THAT.
YOU KNOW WHY WE HAVE PICKED MY NAME IS AHMED HELAL ZAMAN.
545 COVENTRY DRIVE, GRAPEVINE, TEXAS. 76051. IN FACT IT IS A BIG DIFFERENCE.
WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN ON THE PREVIOUS SUBMITTAL VERSUS THIS ONE.
YOU CAN SEE THERE IS A OPEN SPACE. WE HAVE PROVIDED.
WE HAVE SHIFTED THE MAIN ENTRANCE TOWARDS DOWN THERE SO THAT THESE LOT TWO LOTS ARE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER. AND YOU CAN SEE THERE IS A SPACE ON THE NORTH BOUNDARY.
IT IS MORE THAN IT IS 20 FOOT BUILDING LINE FROM THERE.
SO PREVIOUSLY WE HAD IT SOMETHING LIKE 15 FOOT.
SO WE INCREASED THAT BUFFER. FURTHERMORE. OKAY.
RIGHT NOW THIS LOT YOU CAN SEE IT IS 30,000 NEEDED, BUT WE HAVE GOT 26,000 ON THE LOT NUMBER 1.
LOT NUMBER 2 IS 25,000. PREVIOUSLY WE HAD IT SOMEWHERE AROUND 22,000 AND 23,000.
SO IT'S A BIG DIFFERENCE THAN WHAT IT IS TO HONOR THAT PARTICULAR PERSON ON THE NORTH SIDE.
ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? WHERE ARE YOU GUYS ENVISIONING THE DRIVEWAYS BEING THROUGH ESPECIALLY FOR LOTS 2 AND 3.
AND IT IS IT DEPENDS ON WHERE EXACTLY A THE GARAGE IS GOING TO BE LOCATED.
IT COULD BE EITHER ON THE NORTH SIDE FOR LOT NUMBER 3.
IT COULD BE ON THE NORTH SIDE MOST LIKELY. OKAY.
AND FOR LOT NUMBER 2. MAYBE IT WILL BE ON THE NORTH SIDE AS WELL.
NORTH WEST CORNER THERE. ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU ALL. OKAY. ITEM NUMBER 7 ON OUR AGENDA DOES REQUIRE PUBLIC HEARING.
ALL RIGHT. SEEING NO ONE, I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
THEN IT'S JUST TO CLARIFY. SO THE REASON WE'VE GONE TO AN OR THAT THEY'VE GONE TO AN RPD HERE IS SIMPLY TO WRITE IN THE SIZE OF THE LOTS AS A RESTRICTION AND AVOID THE SF 28 ISSUE THAT THEY RAN INTO BEFORE.
IS THAT FAIR? SUMMARY. IT IS A FAIR SUMMARY. AND AS THEY'VE EVOLVED IN THIS WE STARTED REWORKING WITH THEM AFTER THE DENIAL OF THE SF 20.
AND THERE'S ALSO AND THEY'VE NOW SURPASSED THAT, BUT THERE'S A 6 MONTH TIME FRAME IN WHICH THEY CAN'T RESUBMIT THE SAME APPLICATION FOR THE SAME ACTION. AND THAT MAY BE ONE OF THE OTHER FACTORS THAT THEY DECIDED TO GO RPD ALSO TO, TO PUT IN THE OPEN SPACE LANDSCAPE ELEMENT OF THIS AND MAKE THAT PART OF THE ZONING, AND THEN ALSO TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE SETBACKS THAT THEY'RE USING.
THEY'RE PROPOSING A GREATER THAN MINIMUM 15 FOOT SETBACK ON THE NORTH AT A 20 FOOT.
AND ON THE WEST BUILDING LINES THAT ARE REAR YARDS BACK TOWARDS WHITE CHAPEL.
THEY'RE ADDING A LARGER 45 FOOT. SO PROBABLY A FEW OF THOSE FACTORS, THE LOT SIZE BEING ONE OF THEM I'M SURE. SURE. YEAH. AND THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO STATE THAT THE ONLY REGULATION WAS THE SIZE OF THE LOTS OF.
[00:20:03]
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. ANY THOUGHTS COMMENTS BEFORE WE TAKE A VOTE? DIFFERENT TO ME THAN THE WAY IT DID BEFORE. SO, YEAH, THERE'S A FEW THOUSAND SQUARE FEET IN THERE.AND I DO, YOU KNOW, APPRECIATE THE GREEN SPACE IN THE FRONT.
SO, YEAH, I MEAN, I THINK IT'S ACCEPTABLE. IT'S MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE, I'LL SAY THAT.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE'VE ALREADY DENIED AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHAT COUNCILS ALREADY DENIED. AND SO IN MY MIND, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IF COUNCIL IS IN FAVOR OF IT, THEY CAN DO THAT. BUT IT'S SO SIMILAR THAT I JUST COULDN'T BE IN FAVOR OF IT AT THIS POINT.
ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY COMMENTS OR ARE WE READY TO TAKE A VOTE? I AGREE, BUT I ALSO AM NOT UNCERTAIN ABOUT THE WHY YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE A TRIANGULAR LOT.
YOU COULD JUST MOVE THESE BACK, THESE LINES BACK, AND THEN YOU HAVE 3 SQUARED OFF LOTS, RIGHT? YES. AND I THINK THAT WAS ONE OF THE INITIAL APPLICATIONS.
RIGHT. JUST HAVING THREE KIND OF SQUARED LOTS.
PREVIOUSLY WITHOUT THE KIND OF CIRCLE AROUND ABOUT I.
I CAN'T SAY THAT'S INCORRECT. I DON'T I DON'T RECALL THEM HAVING A VERSION OF THAT.
I THINK ONE OF THE 30,000 SQUARE FOOT LOT ISSUE CAME UP.
I JUST DON'T RECALL. UNDERSTOOD. YEAH. I MEAN, I, I THINK THAT WAS DISCUSSED AT THE LAST APPLICATION, BUT I COULD BE WRONG.
HAPPENS. MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DO NOT APPROVE.
CASE ZA25-0035, REFERENCING STAFF REPORT DATED AUGUST 15TH OF 2025 AND FURTHER REFERENCING THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW SUMMARY 3 DATED 8-15-25.
ALL RIGHT, AND JUST TO CLARIFY FOR THE RECORD, THIS IS A DENIAL OF ITEM NUMBER 7.
WE HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND.
SECOND. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE.
THANK YOU GUYS FOR COMING OUT. OBVIOUSLY, CITY COUNCIL IS GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS ONE.
BUT WE APPRECIATE THE EFFORTS YOU DID PUT IN ON TRYING TO PUT IN THE OPEN SPACE AND MAKE THE CHANGES, AND CITY COUNCIL WILL BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF IT.
SO THANK Y'ALL. ALL RIGHT. NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 8 ZA25-0051.
