AT THE AGENDA[CALL TO ORDER & ROLL CALL]
FOR TODAY OF THE, UM, ZONING BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS, AND OUR, I'LL OPEN THAT UP AND I BELIEVE IT IS 6 46 41.AND, UH, WE'RE GONNA OPEN UP, UH, THAT PORTION OF THE MEETING.
UH, THE FIRST THING I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS KIND OF REVIEW SOME THE PROCESS SO THAT, UH, UH, I KNOW, UH, THE BOARD MEMBERS SOMETIMES GET VERY FRUSTRATED WITH ME BECAUSE, UH, THEY'VE HEARD IT ABOUT FIVE TIMES OR SIX TIMES OR 10 TIMES, BUT I KNOW PEOPLE FROM THE PUBLIC ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH IT.
UH, THIS BOARD IS ACTUALLY WHAT'S KNOWN AS A QUASI-JUDICIAL, UH, BODY, WHICH MEANS, UH, IT IS, UH, ANYTHING SAID HERE IS CONSIDERED TESTIMONY AND ANYTHING PROVIDED IS EVIDENCE.
AND FOR A RECORD WITH THAT MEANS A COUPLE THINGS.
ONE IS, UH, ANYBODY WHO WISHES TO SPEAK NEEDS TO SIGN IN, UH, WHICH INCLUDES, AND WHEN YOU COME AND TALK, YOU NEED TO STATE YOUR NAME, UH, HOW YOU'RE ASSOCIATED WITH THE, UH, ITEM ON THE AGENDA.
YOU DON'T, YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T NEED A STREET NUMBER OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, BUT IT'S BASICALLY TO PROVIDE SOME LEVEL OF TRACEABILITY.
OKAY? THE OTHER THING IS, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT WHEN YOU TALK THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS TALKING TO THE, TO THE BOARD, NOT TO INDIVIDUALS.
UH, AGAIN, IT IS, THIS IS A FORMAL COURT HEARING, UH, AND WE JUST NEED TO BE MINDFUL OF THAT, OKAY? AND ANY ISSUES ARE REALLY, ANY COMMUNICATION IS TO THE BOARD MEMBERS TO MAKE A DECISION, NOT TO OTHER MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY.
UH, THE OTHER THING IS, UH, I'M GONNA OPEN THIS MEETING BEFORE WE REALLY START TALKING TO HIM ON THE AGENDA, IS, UH, WHEN WE GO INTO THE PUBLIC IS, UH, EVERYBODY WHO NEEDS TO SWEAR IN, WHO'S PLANNING TO TALK TONIGHT.
SO, I WOULD LIKE EVERYBODY WHO'S PLANNING TO TALK JUST TO STAND AND RAISE THEIR RIGHT HAND.
AND WE'RE GONNA, I'M GONNA, AND REPEAT AFTER ME.
UH, I SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.
UH, I SWEAR, I SWEAR TO TELL THE TRUTH, NOTHING THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.
AND, UH, WHEN YOU COME UP AND TALK, JUST SAY, ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU'VE ALREADY, YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN SWORN IN.
UH, ARE, ARE THERE ANY MORE, UH, AGENDA ITEMS? OH, UH, I WILL TELL YOU THAT I'VE BEEN ON THIS BOARD 45 YEARS, UH, AND EVERYBODY'S ALWAYS HAD A CHANCE TO TALK, SO EVERYBODY'S GOING TO HAVE A CHANCE TO TALK, BUT WE DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT PEOPLE.
BUT, YOU KNOW, SOME, SOME, SOME PEOPLE CAN LAST A LONG TIME.
I MEAN, SO WE NEED TO KIND OF HAVE A BALANCE IN BETWEEN EVERYBODY BEING ABLE TO STATE THEIR FACTS OR OPINIONS, AND IN FACT, UH, UH, HAVE A TIMELY PROCESS.
THE OTHER THING IS, WHAT WE'LL DO IS WE'RE GONNA HAVE SOMEBODY FROM THIS, WE'LL HAVE SOMEBODY FROM THE CITY STAFF PRESENT, UH, THEIR EVALUATION OF THE, UH, REQUEST FOR, UH, VARIANCE.
AND, UH, THEN WE'LL HAVE THE PERSON WHO IS GOING, WHO IS REPRESENTING OR ASKING FOR THE EXEMPTION, UH, AND THEN WE'LL OPEN IT UP TO THE PUBLIC.
AND THEN IF, UH, AGAIN, SO WE AREN'T TALKING TO INDIVIDUALS AND BACK AND FORTH ALL THE TIME.
AND THEN AT THE END, IF THE, UH, APPLICANT WISHES TO COME, UH, REBUT OR COMMENT ON WHAT THE PUBLIC SAYS, THEY CAN DO IT AT THE END.
DID I, DID I PRETTY MUCH GET EVERYTHING ON THAT? OKAY.
WITH THAT, WE'RE, UH, WE HAVE BEEN OPEN, BUT, UH, WHAT WE'VE GOT ON OUR AGENDA HERE IS THE FIRST THING IS TO APPROVE THE MINUTES FROM THE LAST MEETING, UH, WHICH HAVE BEEN ATTACHED TO THE, CAN YOU DO A, SORRY, CHAIR.
[00:05:01]
THANK YOU.UH, SO THE FIRST THING TO DO IS TO, IN FACT, HAVE A ROLL CALL, UH, TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A QUORUM.
CAN WE JUST GO DOWN TOM STEPHANIE YARBOROUGH.
JESSE OWENS, JOHN BILLINGSLEY.
AND ARE WE, ARE WE DOING THE, ARE WE DOING A PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE? OKAY.
IT'S, IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I'VE BEEN, UH, BEEN IN SCHOOL PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.
I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO, TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS ON A NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE, JUSTICE FOR ALL
THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA, THE,
[APPROVAL OF MINUTES ]
THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM THE LAST MEETING IN OCTOBER.UH, WE HAVE BEEN SENT THOSE MINUTES, AND, UH, DOES ANYBODY WISH TO COMMENT OR, UH, CORRECT THE MINUTES I MOTION TO APPROVE.
THE, THE MINUTES ARE APPROVED.
[2. Public hearing and consider action on a Special Exception request from Section 5.16.B of the City of Bedford Zoning Ordinance to allow a short-term rental property to be located within 1,000 feet of another short-term rental property. The subject property is located at 1305 Schumac Lane. in Bedford, Texas, legally described as Kelmont Park Addition Block 8 Lot 55R, generally located north of Schumac Lane and east of Circle Lane. The property is zoned R-9,000 Single-Family Residential Detached District. (EXPT-26-1) ]
THE ITEM THAT EVERYBODY IS HERE FOR.TONIGHT IS THE PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AN ACT, UH, A SPECIAL EXEMPTION REQUEST, UH, TO THE CITY OF BEDFORD ZONING ORDINANCE TO ALLOW A SHORT TERM RENTAL PROPERTY TO BE LOCATED AT ONE WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET OF ANOTHER SHORT-TERM RENTAL PROPERTY.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 1 3 0 5 HUMACK LANE, BEDFORD, TEXAS, UH, LEGALLY DESCRIBED AS, UH, KALMAR PARK.
ADDITION BLOCK EIGHT LOT 55 R GENERALLY LOCATED NORTH OF HUMACK LANE AND EAST OF CIRCLE LANE.
THE PROPERTY IS OWNED R 9,000 SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DETACHED.
WITH THAT, IS THERE SOMEBODY FROM THE CITY TO, UH, SPEAK TO THIS ITEM? YES, SIR.
MY NAME IS WES MORRISON, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT FOR THE CITY OF BEDFORD.
I'LL PRESENT THE FACTS OF THE CASE.
UM, A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ON THE, UH, ON WHY YOU'RE HERE TONIGHT.
CITY COUNCIL ADOPTED A, UH, ANNUAL REGISTRATION INSPECTION PROGRAM FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS IN 2021.
UM, AND THEN FOLLOWING THAT IN 2025, COUNSEL AMENDED THAT ORDINANCE TO PLACE DENSITY REQUIREMENTS ON SHORTTERM RENTALS, ESSENTIALLY PROHIBITING SHORT TERM RENTALS FROM LOCATING WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET OF ANOTHER ONE, UH, WITH THAT AMENDMENT, IT ALSO ESTABLISHED A PROCESS FOR A PROPERTY OWNER COULD REQUEST A SPECIAL EXEC EXEMPTION FROM THE, UH, DISTANCE REQUIREMENT.
AND THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE TONIGHT.
AND APPLICANT AT 1305 HAS REQUESTED THAT APPLICATION.
UM, A LITTLE BIT BACKGROUND ON THE PROPERTY HISTORY.
PROPERTY WAS, ACCORDING TO TAD, DOCUMENTS WAS ORIGINALLY, UM, CONSTRUCTED IN 1978.
UM, IT IS LOCATED IN THE R 9,000 ZONING DISTRICT, WHICH DOES MEAN A MINIMUM LOT SIZE OF 9,000 SQUARE FEET.
THIS PROPERTY, IN PARTICULAR, IS A LITTLE OVER 24,000 SQUARE FEET IN SIZE IN 2025.
THE PROPERTY UNDERWENT A SIGNIFICANT REMODEL ACCORDING TO OUR BUILDING PERMIT RECORDS.
UM, THEY, UH, ADDED SWIMMING POOLS.
THEY ADDED A SMALL ADDITION AND THEN A SWIMMING POOL AND AN ACCESSORY BUILDING WITH RESTROOM FACILITIES.
THE, UM, PROPERTY IS ABOUT 2300 SQUARE FEET IN SIZE WITH FIVE BEDROOMS AND FOUR AND A HALF BATHS ACCORDING TO RECORDS FROM THE PERMITTING DEPARTMENT.
AND THE ACCESSORY STRUCTURE IN THE BACK IS, UM, 800 SQUARE FEET WITH, AGAIN, A RESTROOM FACILITY.
THIS ARROW JUST SHOWS YOU THE, UM, AN ARROW VIEW OF THE SITE SURROUNDING AREA IS PREDOMINANTLY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL.
UM, AGAIN, ALL WITH A MINIMUM LOT SIZE OF 9,000 SQUARE FEET.
HOWEVER, LOT SIZES DO RANGE SINCE, UH, THROUGHOUT THE, UH, BLOCK LENGTH THERE.
PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE SITE, JUST TO GIVE YOU CONTEXT OF SURROUNDING AREA, AGAIN, TYPICAL STANDARD CITY OF BEDFORD NEIGHBORHOOD THROUGHOUT THE, THE SITE.
THIS MAP IS KIND OF A ZOOMED OUT VERSION.
I'VE GOT ANOTHER ONE THAT ZOOMS IN, BUT I WANTED TO SHOW
[00:10:01]
THIS SO THAT YOU COULD GET A PICTURE OF ACTIVE SHORT TERM RENTALS IN THE AREA.UM, EACH OF THE, THE RED STAR REPRESENTS 1305, THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION TONIGHT.
THE, UM, GREEN BOXES THERE THAT YOU SEE, THERE'S ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE ON THE SCREEN.
THEY REPRESENT EACH AN APPROVED SHORT TERM RENTAL.
UM, THE APPLICATION IS FOUR IS AGAIN, TO, UM, GO CLOSER THAN THOU A THOUSAND FEET TO ONE OF THESE.
ALL OF THESE ARE WITH, UH, EXCEPT FOR ONE IS OUTSIDE THAT A THOUSAND FOOT RANGE.
ONE PROPERTY IS WITHIN 790, UH, FEET OF THE, UM, OF ANOTHER SHORT TERM RENTAL.
THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE TONIGHT.
ZOOMING IN, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE A LITTLE BIT CLOSER AS TO WHERE 1305 IS.
UM, AND THE SHORT TERM RENTAL THAT IS IN QUESTION IS, OR THAT IT'S TOO CLOSE TO 790 FEET IS, UM, 1208.
UH, SHIRLEY WAY THE ZONING ORDINANCE SETS OUT.
THERE ARE FIVE FACTORS THAT YOU MUST CONSIDER WHEN GRANTING THESE SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS.
UM, THE, UH, FIRST ONE IS WHETHER THE OPERATION OF A SHORT TERM RENTALS IS IN EXCESS OF THE DENSITY LIMITATION WILL NOT ADVERSELY IMPACT THE RESIDENTIAL QUALITY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN WHICH THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED.
SECOND FACTOR IS WHETHER THE SUCH OPERATION IS LIKELY TO DISRUPT ADJACENT PROPERTY IN HIS RIGHT FOR QUIET ENJOYMENT OF THEIR PROPERTY.
THIRD FACTOR IS WHETHER THE SUCH OPERATION WILL SUSTAINABLY SUBSTANTIALLY IMPACT NEARBY STREETS, INCLUDING WHETHER THE PROPERTY PROVIDES OFF STREET PARKING.
AND THE FOURTH FACTOR IS WHETHER THE APPLICANT SEEKS TO OPERATE AN ENTIRE RESIDENCE AS A SHORT-TERM RENTAL, OR WHETHER THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL USE IS LIMITED TO A PORTION OF THE RESIDENCE.
AND THEN WHETHER THE, UM, SHORT, OTHER SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN EXCESS DENSITY LIMITATI, UH, LIMITATION ARE ALREADY OPERATING ON THAT BLOCK.
WITH THAT, I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE.
ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR WES? UH, I THINK THIS WAS IN IMPLIED IN YOUR EXCELLENT PRESENTATION.
UH, BUT IS THERE ANYTHING UNIQUE ABOUT THE PROPERTY THAT WOULD MITIGATE ITS IMPACT? IN OTHER WORDS, VERY LARGE SETBACKS FROM THE STREET, OR SETBACKS ARE, I MEAN, SETBACKS ARE THE SAME FOR THE ENTIRE ZONING DISTRICT, SO, WELL, WHAT I MEAN IS A VERY LARGE PIECE OF PROPERTY.
IT'S LIKE A, IT IS A LARGER PIECE OF PROPERTY, LIKE A TWO ACRE LOT, AND YOU'VE GOT, YOU KNOW, A HUNDRED FEET ON EACH SIDE AND BEHIND THINGS LIKE THAT.
IT, IT IS A, IT IS A LARGER PIECE OF PROPERTY THAN WHAT IS IN THIS BLOCK LENGTH.
THAT BEING SAID, THEY'VE ALSO MAXIMIZED THE AMOUNT OF BUILDING SQUARE FOOTAGE THEY CAN BUILD ON THIS PROPERTY.
SO THEY'RE TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE FULL SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE LOT.
ANYTHING ELSE WITH THAT? UH, UH, IS THERE ANYBODY HERE TO SPEAK FOR THE APPLICANT? OKAY.
HAVE YOU, HAVE YOU SIGNED IN? UH, ACTUALLY I HAVE NOT.
UH, YOU NEED TO STATE YOUR NAME, YOUR ASSOCIATION WITH THE APPLICATION, AND, UM, UH, YOUR CITY OF RESIDENCE.
UM, AND THIS IS BROOKE ALDEN, WHO WILL INTRODUCE HERSELF HERE.
WE WERE JUST HIRED ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO FOR THIS PROPERTY, UH, 1305 HUMACK LANE.
WE, UH, MY FAMILY LIVES IN BEDFORD.
THEY'VE LIVED HERE FOR 16 YEARS.
UM, I, I'M IN CHARGE OF THE, UH, CARDIAC IMAGING CENTER.
MY CLINIC HAS THAT CENTER, UM, JUST ACROSS THE STREET.
UM, AND WE'RE OTHERWISE PROFESSIONALS IN OTHER FIELDS, BUT WE, UH, TOOK ON THIS PROJECT, UM, AS THE ONLY RESIDENTS THAT WE MANAGE.
UM, AND SO FOR, JUST TO GET TO IT FOR YOUR, FOR THE RESPECTIVE OF YOUR TIME, I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A FEW OF THE FACTORS THAT WE BELIEVE MEET, UH, THE EXEMPTION REQUIREMENT AND YOUR THOUGHTFUL CONSIDERATION, UH, FOR THIS EXEMPTION REQUEST.
UM, FIRST AND FOREMOST, OUR MAIN GOAL TO RENT THIS PROPERTY OUT AS A SHORT TERM RENTAL IS, UM, FOR A HIGH END SORT OF LUXURY PROPERTY.
UH, THAT BY ITSELF, UH, DOESN'T REALLY MEAN MUCH.
ANYONE CAN CALL THEMSELVES A LUXURY PROPERTY, BUT, UM, WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, FACTORS THAT, I WILL GO INTO THAT, BACK THAT UP.
OUR MAIN, UH, MARKET THAT WE ACTUALLY WENT INTO THIS FOR ARE TRAVELING PROFESSIONALS THAT WANT TO
[00:15:01]
TRAVEL WITH THEIR FAMILIES.UM, THE FEW FACTORS THAT SPEAK TO THIS IS THE FACT THAT THE, THE HIGHLY CUSTOM HOUSE THAT WE'RE MANAGING, UM, SPECIFICALLY HAS A CHILD'S ROOM.
YOU CAN'T LIKE PUT A KING BED IN THERE, FOR EXAMPLE.
UM, IT'S, UH, TOTALLY TODDLER PROOFED AROUND THE HOUSE.
UM, THE SECOND POINT IS THAT ADDITIONAL LOT, THAT ADDITIONAL BUILDING THAT'S THERE IS ACTUALLY A LIBRARY AND A CONFERENCE ROOM SPACE.
SO THERE'S A LARGE CONFERENCE TABLE IN THERE, AND THE REST OF IT IS ALL SHELVES, AS YOU'LL SEE IN THE, IN THE PLANS AS WELL, UH, JUST FOR BOOKS.
AND THAT'S FOR SPEAKING TO THE PROFESSIONAL, UH, MARKET THAT WE'RE GOING AFTER.
SO IF SOMEONE WANTS TO HOP ON A ZOOM CALL OR SORT OF GO AWAY FROM THE
IN FACT, THE WHOLE WALL IS GLASS.
SO IT, IT WOULD BE UNBEARABLY HOT
UM, THE, UH, LET ME JUST LOOK AT MY NOTES HERE TO MAKE SURE I'M ON TRACK.
UM, IN THE SAME VEIN OF THE LUXURY PROPERTY, HIGH-END PROPERTY, THE AVERAGE NIGHTLY RATE, ACCORDING TO OUR MARKET RESEARCH IS AT LEAST IN A CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE, 800 TO A THOUSAND PER NIGHT.
THAT ALREADY, UM, SORT OF FILTERS OUT ANY OF THE RIFFRAFF ANYONE'S LOOKING FOR.
AND IF ANYONE'S LOOKING FOR THE RIFFRAFF, I CAN TELL YOU THEY'RE NOT LOOKING FOR THIS PROPERTY JUST BASED ON THE HOUSE RULES ALONE.
UM, SPEAKING OF THE HOUSE RULES, THESE ARE A SET OF RULES THAT EACH GUEST HAS TO AGREE TO AND SIGN TO BEFORE THEY STEP ON THE PROPERTY.
AND A FEW HIGH, I WON'T LIST THEM ALL HERE, I HAVE THEM, UH, IN FRONT OF ME, BUT I WILL JUST LIST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS.
ONE IS THE STRICT NOISE POLICY THAT WE HAVE.
IN FACT, WE HAVE, UH, EQUIPMENT IN THE HOUSE THAT DETECTS ANY NOISE ABOVE A CERTAIN THRESHOLD.
UH, GUESTS ONLY GET ONE CHANCE AFTER ONE VIOLATION.
WE HAVE GROUNDS TO CANCEL THE, THE RESERVATION.
UM, THE SECOND, UH, IS THE, UH, ACTUAL PARKING.
THERE'S, UH, A LARGE SIDE DRIVEWAY AND A SEMI-CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY, WHICH IS OFF THE STREET.
SO NO STREET PARKING IS ACTUALLY EVEN NEEDED.
IT CAN CONSERVATIVELY FIT UP TO SEVEN TO NINE CARS.
I DON'T ANTICIPATE WE WOULD NEED THAT.
OUR MAX OCCUPANT OCCUPANCY, I JUST WANNA AMEND THE APPLICATION.
IT'S ACTUALLY 10 PER ALL RENTAL, LIKE AIRBNB VRBO RULES.
UM, SO I DON'T ANTICIPATE EVERYONE'S PULLING UP WITH THEIR OWN CAR, BUT IF SOMEONE WANTS TO HAVE, LET'S SAY A STUDY GROUP IN THE BACK LIBRARY, THAT WOULD BE, IT WOULDN'T, IT WOULD BE COMPLETELY INSULATED FROM THE STREET.
UM, THE OTHER ASPECT, BROOKE, DO YOU WANNA, DO YOU HAVE ANY? SURE.
UM, YEAH, JUST WANTED TO, I'M SORRY.
PLEASE, PLEASE, YOU HAVE TO LIST STATE YOUR NAME.
YOU ALSO NEED TO STATE WHETHER YOU'VE, UH, TAKEN THE OATH.
I AM A BUSINESS ASSOCIATE WITH DR.
AND, UM, I HAVE SWORN IN EARLIER TODAY.
UM, AND SO JUST I, I JUST WANT TO FOCUS IN ON THESE FACTORS THAT ARE BEING CONSIDERED, THAT ARE LISTED HERE FOR US.
UM, AS SHE MENTIONED, WHY WE ARE DOING A FAMILY ORIENTED, UH, FACILITY IS BECAUSE OF THE HOMEOWNER IS, UH, HE DOES TRAVEL FOR WORK.
AND THAT IS WHY WE EVEN HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSIDER THIS FOR A SHORT TERM RENTAL.
UM, AND HE HAS SMALL CHILDREN.
AND SO OBVIOUSLY THAT'S WHY WE SPOKE TO, UM, WHAT THE HOUSE LOOKS LIKE IN TERMS OF, UH, FACILITATING FAMILY CARE.
UM, AS WE MENTIONED, FOR, FOR SAFETY REASONS, FOR NOISE REASONS, FOR, UM, STREET PRIVACY REASONS, UM, WE DO HAVE STRICT, UH, THE STRICT OCCUPANCY LIMITS, THE STRICT NO PARTY POLICY.
UM, AND THESE ARE PART OF OUR HOUSE RULES THAT WE HAVE BROUGHT.
UM, AND OBSERVING BEDFORD'S CITY QUIET HOURS, UH, YOU KNOW, SHE MENTIONED THERE ARE THESE NOISE DEVICES THAT WE CAN USE.
WE ARE LOCAL AND WE ARE THE ONLY OPERATORS THAT WOULD EVEN BE ATTENDING TO THIS, AND THIS WOULD BE THE ONLY PROPERTY WE WOULD BE TENDING TO.
UM, AND SO THAT JUST GIVES TWO MORE RESPECT FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD, UM, AND RESPECT TO THE TYPES OF GUESTS WE'RE LOOKING TO EVEN, UM, UH, HOST.
UM, AND THEN, UH, YOU KNOW, YES, WE ARE SEEKING TO USE THAT ENTIRE RENTAL SPACE FOR THE TIMES THAT THE MAIN HOMEOWNER IS NOT THERE.
UM, BUT YOU KNOW, YES, YOU MIGHT SEE EXTRA SPACE IS LISTED, BUT NOT EVERYTHING YOU SEE IS GONNA BE A, A LIVING SPACE.
WE'RE NOT TRYING TO PILE 20 PEOPLE INTO THE PLACE.
WE'RE LOOKING AT ACTUAL, UH, LEGAL OCCUPANCY LIMITS BASED ON THE SAFETY OF THE BEDROOMS, ET CETERA.
UM, SO, YOU KNOW, WE ARE, WE'RE NOT TRYING TO BE NAIVE OR, OR UNSAFE OR, UM, YOU KNOW, TAKE AWAY FROM,
[00:20:01]
FROM THE SAFETY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD EITHER.UM, I DO APPRECIATE THE MAP SHOWING, UM, YOU KNOW, THE DENSITY, THE LOCAL, THE OTHER PIECES, UM, THAT ARE PROHIBITING OUR APPLICATION.
UM, YOU MIGHT NOTICE THAT THERE'S NO, NO OTHER RENTAL ON SHOE SCHUMACK.
UM, AND IF THERE ARE, THEY ARE NOT PERMITTED.
SO YES, WE, WE MIGHT HAVE SEEN ON AIRBNB THAT THERE ARE SOME, THERE.
HOPEFULLY, UH, YOU'LL LOOK AT US AND SAY, HEY, AT LEAST THEY'RE, I MEAN, FOLLOWING THE CITY OF BEDFORD LAW SHOULD BE, SHOULD BE BARE MINIMUM TO DO.
SO, UM, ESSENTIALLY I DO THINK WE HAVE, WE HAVE STIPULATIONS THAT WE HAVE LOOKED AT THAT WE HAVE TRIED TO IMPLEMENT TO ADDRESS, YOU KNOW, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE FACTORS.
UM, AND TRY TO DO IT IN SUCH A RESPECTFUL WAY, SUCH A RESPECTFUL WAY THAT, UM, DOESN'T, YOU KNOW, TAKE AWAY FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE WE DID COME INTO THIS MORE RECENTLY, SO I CAN UNDERSTAND SOME OF OUR NEIGHBOR'S, UM, FRUSTRATIONS WITH SOME OF THE RENOVATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE.
WE WERE NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY AT THAT TIME.
AND SO THIS OPPORTUNITY HAS SORT OF COME UP MORE RECENTLY.
UM, SO I, I CAN UNDERSTAND THE FRUSTRATIONS, UM, FROM PREVIOUS THINGS, BUT WE'RE TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH, LIKE I SAID, RESEARCH ORIENTED AND TRYING TO STAY IN LINE WITH ALL POSSIBLE, UM, RESTRICTIONS AND IN TERMS OF THE CITY OR IN TERMS OF RENTAL WEBSITES.
UM, AND I JUST WANNA ADD TO THAT, WE ARE STAKEHOLDERS IN THE CITY OF BEDFORD.
AS I SAID, I LITERALLY WORK JUST ON THIS ROAD ON FOREST RIDGE, UM, AND MY FAMILY'S LIVED HERE FOR 16 YEARS OFF OF CENTRAL DRIVE.
WE'RE, WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR ANY RAMBUNCTIOUS TYPES.
WE'RE SPECIFICALLY NOT LOOKING FOR THAT.
WE DON'T WANT TO UPSET OUR NEIGHBORS BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT JUST NEIGHBORS OF HUMACK, THEY'RE ARE NEIGHBORS TOO.
UM, SO I, I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU LETTING US SPEAK HERE.
UM, BROOKE, IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE, I THINK I WANTED TO MAKE THAT POINT THAT AFTER ALL OF THIS, I STILL GOTTA HAVE TO, YOU KNOW, LIVE WITH EVERYBODY ON THE STREET.
SO I, I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S PERSPECTIVES AND, AND YOUR CONSIDERATION.
UM, YEAH, I DID WANNA JUST MAKE NOTE THAT, UM, SOME OF THE PICTURES ON EXHIBIT B, THEY JUST, THEY DON'T ACTIVELY SHOW SOME OF THOSE PARKING SPACES.
UM, AND I DO THINK THAT'S JUST IMPORTANT TO NOTATE.
AGAIN, NOT 'CAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO FILL UP THE PARKING SPACES, BUT TO HIGHLIGHT THIS WOULD NEVER DETRACT FROM THE STREET VIEW.
IF YOU'RE COMING UP THE STREET, WE ARE NOT GONNA BE CROWDING IT WITH CARS.
AND THEN THE PROPERTY ITSELF IS A LITTLE BIT PUSHED BACK AND THAT CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY IS BLOCKED BY SOME LANDSCAPING, WHICH JUST ADDS A LITTLE BIT MORE OF THAT, UH, INSULATION.
YEAH, INSULATION FROM THE STREET ITSELF.
JUST TO COMMENT, I BELIEVE IF YOU LOOK AT EXHIBIT C, IT DOES SHOW A LAYOUT OF THE PROPERTY.
WHAT IS WHAT YOU'RE DESCRIBING? YES.
THAT'S JUST THE, I WAS JUST POINTING OUT ON THE PICTURES, YOU CAN'T REALLY APPRECIATE THE SIZE.
BUT YES, EXHIBIT C, THE DARK GRAY DRIVEWAY IS WHAT, UM, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
UM, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND, UM, THANK YOU FOR EVERYBODY'S PARTICIPATION AND CONSIDERATION.
UH, ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD? I, I DON'T HAVE ANY WITH THAT.
UH, I, I BELIEVE, DO YOU AGAIN, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO SHARE WITH US? THAT WAS ALL OKAY WITH THAT.
UH, I THINK WE CAN MOVE ON TO PUBLIC COMMENT AND PLEASE, UH, WHEN YOU, YOU KNOW, ONE TIME, ONE PERSON AT A TIME, COME UP, UH, STATE YOUR NAME, WHETHER YOU'VE BEEN SIGNED IN, SWORN IN CHAIR, THINGS LIKE THAT.
CAN YOU IDENTIFY THE TIME THAT YOU'RE OPENING THE PUBLIC HEARING? I'M SORRY.
UH, IT IS NOW SEVEN, UH, SEVEN, UH OH 3 7 0 4.
AND WE'RE OPENING FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.
I'M A RESIDENT OF THE CITY OF BEDFORD.
UM, I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN THE, UM, I LIVE ON OVER HILL WITH A DIRECT LINE OF SIGHT TO THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED.
I'VE LIVED IN BED FOR, FOR THE BETTER PART OF THE LAST 56 YEARS.
UM, I OBJECT TO THE CITY, I, SORRY, I OBJECT TO THE CITY GRANTING AN EXCEPTION ON THIS.
THERE ARE SEVERAL ITEMS I'D LIKE TO ADDRESS.
THE FIRST ONE IS ACTUALLY AN ISSUE WITH THE ILLEGAL PROPERTY DESCRIPTION.
I WENT BY TODAY TO GO CHECK AND SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON.
AND THEY CONFIRMED THE CITY IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE WITH THE PROPERTY DESCRIPTION.
THE TERRAN APPRAISAL DISTRICT HAS THIS LISTED AS A QUARTER ACRE, 24,000 SQUARE FEET.
[00:25:01]
THEY DID NOT BUILD THE PROPERTIES ON THE, ON THE PLATS AS THEY WERE DONE.THE EFFECTIVE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THIS ONE IS ONLY 16,000 SQUARE FEET.
THE PROPERTY SIZE IS 109 BY 148.
SO I'LL GIVE THIS TO YOU, PASS DOWN.
THEN YOU CAN SEE WHAT I HAVE MARKED ON THERE FOR THE ADDRESS IN QUESTION.
AND YOU CAN SEE HOW IT EXTENDS OVER TO THE WEST ACTUALLY TAKING OVER HALF OF 1301.
SO THE PROPERTY LINE FOR THIS PROPERTY IS ACTUALLY HALFWAY THROUGH THE HOUSE IN PROPERTY ON 1301.
UM, WHICH DIRECTLY AFFECTS AS HE PRESENTED THE SIZE OF THE HOUSE IS FOR THE PROPERTY SIZE IS CONSIDERABLY SMALLER.
UM, AND THEY'RE AWARE, AS WE WERE DISCUSSING EARLIER TODAY, I CAME UP TO DO MY HOMEWORK FOR THIS ONE.
AND THE CITY MAPS ACTUALLY SHOW THIS ALIGNMENT.
WHEN THIS HOUSE WAS PURCHASED FROM THEM IN 2021, IT WAS A 3,800 SQUARE FOOT, FOUR BEDROOM, THREE AND A HALF BATH, THREE CAR GARAGE, LARGE BACKYARD, 15 LARGE FULLY GROWN TREES.
AND IT WAS VERY TYPICAL FOR THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND THIS IS WHAT WE STARTED WITH IN 2021.
ARE THE SAME, THEY'RE BOTH THE SAME SETS.
AND SIR, CAN YOU CONFIRM, ARE THESE BEING ENTERED AS EXHIBITS OF THE CITY? YES, THESE ARE EXHIBITS.
THEY'RE EACH LABELED INDEPENDENTLY.
THIS IS 2021, EXHIBITS ONE THROUGH FIVE.
2021 DASH ONE, WE'LL SHOW YOU THE ORIGINAL FRONT.
20 21, 20 22, 3 AND FOUR, SHOW YOU AND FIVE SHOW YOU THE TREES IN THE BACKYARD AS IT ORIGINALLY EXISTED WHEN THE HOUSE WAS PURCHASED IN 2021 BEFORE THE CURRENT REMODELS.
AND THIS WAS VERY TYPICAL FOR THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND IT WOULD STILL MEET THE TYPICAL DEFINITIONS OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AS THE HOUSE EXISTS TODAY.
THEY'VE ALREADY SHOWN YOU SOME OF THE PICTURES AS IT WAS REMODELED.
THE FRONT WAS EXPANDED TOWARDS THE STREET.
THE THREE CAR GARAGE WAS ENCLOSED AND AIR CONDITIONED.
AND ACCORDING TO THE TAD NUMBERS, THE ORIGINAL SQUARE FOOTAGE WAS 3,800 SQUARE FEET, WHICH DISAGREES WITH WHAT HIS 2,600 WAS, BUT THAT'S WHAT TAD HAD LISTED IN 2021.
AND THAT'S WHAT REALTOR.COM SHOWS.
WHEN IT WAS SOLD AS 3,800 SQUARE FEET, IT WAS CURRENTLY LISTED BY TAD AS 4,600 SQUARE FEET.
AGAIN, 4,600 SQUARE FEET SITTING ON A 16,000 SQUARE FOOT LOT, WHICH IS NOT TYPICAL FOR THESE NEIGHBORHOODS.
UM, SUBSEQUENTLY THE 15 TREES IN THE BACKYARD WERE ALSO REMOVED.
THE BUILDING THAT IS LISTED AS I BELIEVE 800 SQUARE FEET IS 40 BY 25.
MY MASS SAYS IT'S A THOUSAND SQUARE FEET.
IT'S ALSO A TWO STORY BUILDING.
IT HAS A THREE AND A HALF OR FOUR TON AIR CONDITIONING UNIT ATTACHED TO IT.
SO IN THEORY, THAT ADDS ANYWHERE FROM A THOUSAND TO POTENTIALLY 2000 SQUARE FEET TO THE 4,600 SQUARE FEET WE'RE ALREADY TALKING ABOUT.
THEY ALSO ADDED A SWIMMING POOL, A COVERED DECK PERGOLA, AND DECKED OUT EVERYTHING IN THE BACKYARD TO MAKE IT NICE WHILE SHE IS BEING GENEROUS ON THE SEVEN CARS.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURES 2026 DASH ONE AND 2026 DASH THREE, THIS IS A DOUBLE WIDE GR DRIVEWAY NOW, INCLUDING THE FRONT CURVATURE, POTENTIALLY PARKS ANYWHERE FROM 11 TO 1213 CARS.
THE UM, AND AS I SAID TAD SHOWS THIS HOUSE IS 4,600, IT'S NOW 30, IT HAS 4,600 PLUS THE ADDITIONAL PIECES, UM, MAKING IT EFFECTIVELY 6,000 SQUARE FEET OF SPACE THAT IS AIR CONDITIONED AT THAT HOUSE RIGHT NOW.
UM, IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THAT IS FOR A SINGLE FAMILY TRAVELING PROFESSIONAL, YOU DON'T NEED THAT MUCH PARKING SPACE.
YOU DON'T NEED THAT MUCH SPACE AVAILABLE.
UM, IF THE HOUSE WAS TRUE TO ITS ORIGINAL DESIGN, I WOULD HAVE NO OBJECTION WITH THIS ONE.
HOWEVER, AS IT'S BEEN REMODELED, IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE IT IS FOR THE
[00:30:01]
PURPOSE STATED AT THIS MOMENT.THE SHEER SIZE, THE SWIMMING POOL, THE ADDITIONAL SIZE OUTBACK, UM, REGARDING WHAT IT VIOLATES.
SO POTENTIALLY IT VIOLATE DIRECTLY VIOLATES FACTORS ONE AND TWO BECAUSE THIS IS DESIGNED TO HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE AT IT.
UM, AND IT VIOLATES NUMBER FIVE.
THE DENSITY LIMITATION THAT THEY MENTIONED ALREADY IS THE ONE WE'RE ALSO AWARE OF.
ADVERTISED ACTIVELY IS 1213 SHOE MAC, WHICH IS 250 FEET FROM THIS PROPERTY ON VRBO AND 1200 DONNA LANE, WHICH IS AT DONNA AND CIRCLE, WHICH IS 570 FEET.
SO THAT IMMEDIATELY PUTS THREE PROPERTIES WITHIN THE A THOUSAND FOOT NUMBER THAT WE'RE AWARE OF.
SO I ASK THAT YOU DO NOT GRANT THE EXCEPTION ON THIS ONE.
AND I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME TONIGHT.
IS THERE ANYBODY ELSE TO SPEAK? YES.
UH, UH, I'LL SIGN IN, IN I HAVE BEEN SWORN IN.
UM, THANK YOU FOR THE TIME, UH, TO DISCUSS THIS VERY IMPORTANT MATTER.
ONE THING I DO WANT TO, UH, START OFF WITH IS MY DISCUSS ABOUT THE TYPO ON OUR LETTER.
I HAVE THREE OTHER, UM, FAMILIES RIGHT AROUND ME THAT WILL BE HERE TOMORROW BECAUSE IT DOES DISTINCTIVELY SAY THURSDAY, JUNE 17TH.
SO I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HERE HAD I NOT STOPPED OFF AND TALKED TO MY OTHER NEIGHBOR ON MY WAY INTO MY HOME JUST A WHILE AGO.
SO I HADN'T HAD NO LUNCH, HADN'T NO, YOU KNOW, NOT EVEN TIME TO GET HOME YET FROM WORK.
SO BEAR WITH ME 'CAUSE I'M A LITTLE UPSET ABOUT THAT.
SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH THE THREE FAMILIES THAT ARE GONNA SHOW UP TOMORROW FOR THIS MEETING? AND, AND I'M GONNA SPEAK IN THEIR BEHALF BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL TALKED.
UM, SO I LIVE ON, UH, DONNA LANE 1305.
THE, UH, HOUSE IN QUESTION, UH, IS FACING THE BACKSIDE IS FACING MY FRONT DOOR.
SO THEY ARE 90 FOOT AWAY FROM MY FRONT DOOR AND THEY HAVE A HUGE WINDOW UP ON THE SECOND STORY THAT LOOKS DIRECTLY INTO MY HOUSE IN BETWEEN THE TWO HOUSES DIRECTLY BEHIND IT.
SHE WORKS OUT IN THE YARD ALMOST EVERY DAY BY HERSELF.
I LIVE, I WORK IN, UH, LEWISVILLE.
IT'S A SECURITY HAZARD FOR ME.
I DON'T WANT MY WIFE BEING SEEN BY PEOPLE THAT ARE COMING FROM WHOEVER KNOWS WHERE AND VISITING THAT HOUSE AND BEING ABLE TO DO WHATEVER THEY WANT WHILE MY WIFE'S OUT THERE DOING HER THING.
IT'S A SECURITY HAZARD FOR ME.
NOT ONLY THAT, THE LADY NEXT DOOR RIGHT BESIDE RIGHT BEHIND 1305, WHICH IS 1304, IS ANOTHER DEAR FRIEND OF MINE AND SHE'S WIDOWED, UH, HER HUSBAND PASSED AWAY A COUPLE YEARS AGO.
MY WIFE AND I HELP HER TAKE CARE OF HER HOUSE.
SHE IS A FLIGHT ATTENDANT, SO SHE'S LEAVING A LOT.
SHE'LL LEAVE AND SHE'LL, SHE'LL FLY OVER TO EUROPE, STAY A COUPLE DAYS AND COME BACK LEAVING HER HOUSE UNATTENDED WHILE SOME PEOPLE MIGHT BE IN THE OTHER HOUSE NOTICING THAT THERE'S NOBODY THERE OR NOTICING THAT MY WIFE AND I ARE WALKING OVER THERE TO TAKE CARE OF HER CAT OR CLEANING HER YARD.
UH, AND THEN RIGHT BESIDE IT IS ANOTHER 1308.
HE WAS GONNA COME WITH ME TOMORROW.
OH, AND BY THE WAY, I'VE LIVED THERE 39 YEARS AND WE OWN OUR OWN HOME.
THE NEIGHBOR I'M TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW, HE OWNS HIS OWN HOME.
THE YOUNG LADY THAT IS WIDOWED HAS BEEN THERE ALSO 40 YEARS.
WE ALL GREW UP IN THAT AREA, TAKING CARE OF OUR HOUSES, LIVING A PEACEFUL LIFE.
UM, THE GENTLEMAN THAT LIVES DIRECTLY BEHIND HIM HAS FOUR YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEY PLAY IN THE BACKYARD ALL THE TIME.
A LOT OF TIMES THEY'RE RUNNING AROUND HALF CLOTHED, BUT THEY'RE YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEY LIVE RIGHT BEHIND THEM.
UM, HE HAS HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE OWNER ALREADY.
[00:35:01]
UH, THE OWNER OBVIOUSLY IS MUSLIM AND HE CAME OVER AND HAD A BIG ARGUMENT WITH MY NEIGHBOR AND ME ABOUT OUR CHRISTIAN MUSIC.SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING ON DOING TO THIS THING, BUT I KIND OF THINK IT'S, IT'S A FAR FOR A MUSLIM AREA TO COME IN THERE.
UM, HE THROWED THE WEIGHT AROUND, TOLD US, YOU KNOW, HE HAD PLENTY OF MONEY TO SUE US OR WHATEVER.
SO THE OWNER IS UP TO SOMETHING.
UM, PROBLEM WITH THESE SHORT TERM RENTALS IS WE ARE HAVING A TON OF PEOPLE THAT WE DON'T KNOW.
WE DON'T SEE WALKING UP AND DOWN OUR STREETS, LOOKING THROUGH OUR TRASHES, UM, VLY HANGING OUT WHILE WE'RE ALL WORKING OR WE'RE RETIRED AND TRYING TO WORK ON OUR HOUSES AND KEEP OUR HOUSES NICE.
OUR BEAUTIFUL LITTLE AREA OVER THERE IS GETTING INUNDATED.
AND YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW AS MANY AS WE HAVE JUST SET IN HERE AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A LOT OF VBO AND OUR AIRBNBS THAT ARE NOT REGISTERED IN OUR CITY.
AND THEY ARE WITHIN A THOUSAND FOOT OF THIS HOUSE HERE, MULTIPLES.
AND YOU KNOW, I'D LIKE TO KNOW THAT THE BOARD MIGHT TRY TO CONSIDER SOMEBODY TO GO OUT AND INVESTIGATE WHO ALL IS OUT THERE RENTING THEM.
WE HAVE TWO BRAND NEW HOUSES ON DONNA LANE THAT HAVE OVER 20 PEOPLE LIVING IN THEM.
THEY'RE ALL IN THE PARKING SPACES.
AND EVERY ONE OF 'EM GOT STUDENT DRIVER STICKERS ON 'EM BECAUSE THEY'RE MUSLIM.
WE CANNOT ALLOW THIS AND WE CAN'T ALLOW THIS EXCEPTION TO HAPPEN.
I BEG YOU, DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN.
IF IT DOESN'T GO OUR WAY, I WILL BE APPEALING IT DUE TO THE TYPO ON THE LETTER.
'CAUSE WE HAVE OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE VERY INTERESTED IN TALKING ABOUT THIS AND STATING THEIR, THEIR GRIEVANCES AND THEY CAN'T BE HERE BECAUSE THEY'LL BE HERE TOMORROW.
SO WITH ALL THAT BEING SAID, PLEASE TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE FOLKS THAT HAVE LIVED THERE OVER 30 YEARS, THAT WE'RE GONNA STAY HERE AND RETIRE HERE.
WE BUILT BEDFORD AND WE WANT TO CONTINUE BUILDING BEDFORD.
I, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO, BUT UM, GIVEN THE INFORMATION REGARDING THE TYPO ON THE PUBLIC NOTICE, WE ARE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO ACT ON THIS ITEM TONIGHT.
SO WE WILL HAVE TO RE NOTIFY AND SCHEDULE ANOTHER PUBLIC HEARING.
AND THAT PUBLIC HEARING WILL HAVE TO MEET THE SAME STANDARDS RIGHT.
FOR, FOR NOTIFICATION, WHICH MEANS THAT THE MEETING WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE PLACE TOMORROW EITHER.
SO ARE WE GONNA CONTINUE TONIGHT? I I DON'T, I THINK THE ANSWER IS NO.
JENNIFER, WOULD YOU AGREE? YEAH.
I THINK WE NEED TO END TONIGHT BECAUSE OF THE NOTICE ISSUE.
WE'LL BE BACK US TO NOT GET NOTIFICATIONS.
HOW CAN WE ENSURE THAT WE GET NOTIFICATIONS ON THIS RANCH? SURE.
SO THE WAY THE NOTIFICATION WORKS IS BY LAW WE HAVE TO NOTIFY EVERYONE WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE PROPERTY.
OKAY? SO IF YOU DO NOT OWN PROPERTY WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE PROPERTY, YOU WOULD NOT GET NOTICE.
WHEN IS IT GONNA BE, WHEN IS IT GONNA BE RESCHEDULED? I'LL HAVE TO, WE'LL HAVE TO SEND OUT NEW NOTICE AND I, I DON'T KNOW THAT DATE.
THE NEXT, IF WE DO IT AT THEIR NEXT REGULAR MEETING IN JULY, THAT WOULD BE JULY 15TH.
UM, BUT I HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS BOARD IS AVAILABLE JULY 15TH.
SO, UM, BUT THAT IS THEIR NEXT REGULAR SCHEDULED MEETING.
AND WILL THE, EXCUSE ME, WILL THE NOTIFICATION BE BY MAIL AGAIN? THAT IS CORRECT.
I WILL SAY THAT THE NOTIFICATION DIDN'T REACH EVERYBODY.
WE HAD TO SHARE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY THE FLYERS.
'CAUSE NOT EVERYBODY GOT THEIRS IN THEIR NAME.
IT'S ONLY GOING TO GO TO PEOPLE THAT OWN PROPERTY WITHIN 200 FEET OF THEY'RE NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR ACROSS THE STREET.
I THEN I WOULD MAKE SURE THAT YOUR ADDRESS AND YOUR PROPERTY INFORMATION IS UPDATED WITH TAD.
'CAUSE THAT'S HOW WE HAVE TO NOTIFY.
UH, WITH THAT INFORMATION, I THINK WE NEED TO ADJOURN THE MEETING.
[00:40:01]
DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN? I MOTION TO ADJOURN.DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN? DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF ADJOURNING SAY AYE.
