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.
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.
Is there a flag that displays on the screen, Ron?
There is not.
Okay, so imagine a flag in your head. Okay.
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.
I honor the Texas flag. I pledge allegiance to the Texas one state, under God, one indivisible.
Thank you.
The second item on the agenda is considering the approval of the December 14th, 2020 minutes. I have a motion to approve the minutes.
You will have to unmute yourself if you would like to make that motion.
I have a question.
Yeah, go ahead.
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.
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.
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.
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.
So I just wanted to make sure that it didn't refer to this special exemption. Okay.
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.
Okay.
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.
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.
Thank you. And admin, can you, can you change your name so we can see your name on the screen?
You're muted, sir.
How do I do that?
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.
Yeah, I know. I don't know how to do that.
I was watching my name up there before. I don't know.
Need help. Can't do it.
The host can do it.
Whoever is the host of the meeting can rename.
All right. David Higgins. Yes.
So that's Mr. Higgins.
Okay. All right. So people at home. Okay. So, so Emily, how do you vote?

And Prince?
Prince is connecting to audio.
I'm not sure what to do about that.
If we don't hear him, I think we have.
There he is.
And I will also vote yes.
Okay.
But we don't know how Prince is voting, but it is a majority who have
passed it. So is that okay? And we can get with Prince later and figure out.
How he voted.
Yes. I think we're okay.
One, two, three, four.
Five, six. Yes, we have six.
Okay. Thanks everyone.
Thank you for your time.

the meeting.
