So, mayor and council, the legislature just passed um legislation letting cities determine whether they can have early voting at the 46 day mark when we do the absentee with the envelopes and all those great things or choose to do an 18-day early voting when they're coming in and they're voting um with a ballot and putting it into the tabulator.

Yes. we wouldn't have to bring in any absentee um um any election judges to help with absentee voting, you know, and having them maybe sitting here for periods of time when no voters are coming in.

Is it okay is it necessary for us to accept the work when we already have defects in the work.

your remedy isn't compromised by taking this action. You're simply putting it into the warranty period, and then staff will evaluate, you know, what it looks like during that period, whether any fixes are necessary, and have security to access to correct.

I would say actually that that sort of influences probably more in the city's direction because it's not an installation defect. You know, that they put it over an area the wrong way in a way that it settled or something along those lines. It's something that the condition was unknown to all parties involved and and arose as a sort of a a long-term maintenance issue.

Staff recommended that it follow the contours of the wetland that's consistent with uh the 2040 parks plan. Um but after hearing testimony from the applicant, the parks and trails commission uh recommended approval of the developers preferred route along uh the eastern side of the property.

one of the things that would make me just really disappointed would be to remove what I think are probably the most dense forested property. I mean, there's I love it. I've been here my whole life. But one thing is there's just not a lot of those mature trees. And um I know that you blaze a trail through there. You are talking about not not 100 trees, hundreds, hundreds of trees.

So, with the way the resolution is drafted now, would it allow for some wiggling of that western alignment to minimize tree impact or do you need modification?

I guess what I would want to see is a measure of financial hardship. We drafted this ordinance. We wanted to give people an opportunity to get an exemption if there'd been a major market downturn and they couldn't sell the home, they couldn't afford the home and it was threaten threatening their financial well-being to be able to not rent it. What I would see is missing in this case is there wasn't an effort to sell and evidence that was not able to be sold at a reasonable price.

I couldn't able to pay the EMI and hya it's costing me around $3,600 per month

Well, I'll I'll amend my motion then. Uh I would like to see it aggressively marketed for no less than six months before he can come back.

I would steer you away from from too much definition on on this point because I think it's going to it's going to provide a rigidity that you don't want.
