00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,000
 Good afternoon and thank you for joining us. Today is January 25th, 2021. The time is 3.05 and this is a meeting for the Zoning Board of Adjustments.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:21,000
 We do have a quorum, so I'd like to call this meeting to order. And the first item on our agenda is a Pledge of Allegiance to both the United States and the Texas flag.

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,000
 Is there a flag that displays on the screen, Ron?

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,000
 There is not.

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:31,000
 Okay, so imagine a flag in your head. Okay.

6
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:45,000
 I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

7
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:55,000
 I honor the Texas flag. I pledge allegiance to the Texas one state, under God, one indivisible.

8
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,000
 Thank you.

9
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:10,000
 The second item on the agenda is considering the approval of the December 14th, 2020 minutes. I have a motion to approve the minutes.

10
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
 You will have to unmute yourself if you would like to make that motion.

11
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000
 I have a question.

12
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,000
 Yeah, go ahead.

13
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:43,000
 So, on the very last section, when I had made a motion, I thought it was to include the special exemption, but maybe it doesn't have to be worded that way or maybe the fact that it was discussed and actually phrased that way in the video, maybe that's all it needs.

14
00:01:43,000 --> 00:02:08,000
 So I just wanted to note that that was the special exemption request that that's why it was approved. That's why I motion to approve it. So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't need to refer to this special exemption and that portion.

15
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:20,000
 Okay. So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay. So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption and that portion.

16
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:28,000
 Okay. So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay. So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

17
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,000
 So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

18
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,000
 So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

19
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,000
 So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

20
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000
 So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

21
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,000

22
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,000

23
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,000
 So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.

24
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:49,000
 Thank you. Okay. So we have a motion to approve with the second from Kate. Is there any discussion about the minutes before we vote? Okay.

25
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,000
 Okay.

26
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,000
 Okay.

27
00:02:51,000 --> 00:03:02,000
 Seeing no other further discussion. Do we have to raise our hands wrong? Are you saying one by one? Yes, you would have to recognize each member and ask how they vote on the item.

28
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:12,000
 Okay. And you'll have to, so is CG, are you a, are you a board member or are you a staffer? Staffer, ma'am. Deputy city attorney.

29
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:23,000
 Thank you. And admin, can you, can you change your name so we can see your name on the screen?

30
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000
 You're muted, sir.

31
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000
 How do I do that?

32
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,000
 I'm not sure. I'll put the three little buttons up at the top there. Just be nice. I think everyone can see who is speaking.

33
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000
 Yeah, I know. I don't know how to do that.

34
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,000
 I was watching my name up there before. I don't know.

35
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:45,000
 Need help. Can't do it.

36
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,000
 The host can do it.

37
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,000
 Whoever is the host of the meeting can rename.

38
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,000
 All right. David Higgins. Yes.

39
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,000
 So that's Mr. Higgins.

40
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:04,000
 Okay. All right. So people at home. Okay. So, so Emily, how do you vote?

41
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,000
 Yes.

42
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000
 Kate?

43
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
 I vote yes.

44
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000
 Michael?

45
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
 Oh, yes.

46
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,000
 Richard?

47
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:22,000
 Richard is staff.

48
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,000
 Thank you, Jennifer.

49
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000
 Jennifer, you're muted. Try that again.

50
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,000
 I vote yes.

51
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,000
 Thank you. David?

52
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,000
 Yes.

53
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,000
 And Prince?

54
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000
 Prince is connecting to audio.

55
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:46,000
 I'm not sure what to do about that.

56
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:53,000
 If we don't hear him, I think we have.

57
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000
 There he is.

58
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,000
 And I will also vote yes.

59
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:10,000
 Okay.

60
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,000
 But we don't know how Prince is voting, but it is a majority who have

61
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000
 passed it. So is that okay? And we can get with Prince later and figure out.

62
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,000
 How he voted.

63
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
 Yes. I think we're okay.

64
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,000
 One, two, three, four.

65
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,000
 Five, six. Yes, we have six.

66
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:28,000
 Okay. Thanks everyone.

67
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000
 Thank you for your time.

68
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
 We're going to move on to the next item.

69
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000
 So are there any concluding items?

70
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
 Anything that needs to be mentioned before we close this regular part of

71
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,000
 the meeting.

72
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,000
 And open to the closed session.

73
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,000
 We cool.

74
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,000
 Great.

75
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,000
 Okay.

76
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,000
 So the time is now three 10.

77
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000
 I will close this meeting of the zoning board of adjustments.

78
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000
 Thank you all for your time.
