at 1:05:56Those expenditures were due to the fact that there was an interim executive director for the better part of a year after the departure of my predecessor.
at 1:07:36If you have not, it spells out everything that we do from business attraction, business retention, and how we support the business community.
at 1:36:15But I think Hilton, and I know they're independently operated, a lot of them, with the brand, but the brand requires the independent operators to really maintain the exterior and the interior and the services provided at a very high level.
at 1:36:44The final thing I would say is that other than this alternative compliance for some, I didn't even really, I read it two times, some, what is it, windows or lack of windows, too many windows?
at 2:32:21I think that the village of Indiantown is the best entity to decide the future of this parcel.
at 2:32:31This is a piece of land that used to be in the Indiantown CRA, and then incorporation happened.
at 1:08:12This proposed Sixth Amendment to the PUD agreement adds residential storage facility as a permitted use for Out Parcel A.

at 1:39:16In light of that, I would make a motion to approve the designation, but can you phrase that for me one more time about the additional information that we could ask for on the fifth, number five?
at 2:58:51and I would like to bring our attention back to that, a quasi-judicial decision has a different legal standard.
at 2:59:34But this is one of those judicial decisions, and we've had testimony that the proposal before us meets the comp plan amendment provisions
at 1:53:39You know, I've found that, you know, in renting things in the past, if you have a lot of conditions, like, oh, you have to be an aeronautical-type enterprise,
at 2:28:30And then when I think of Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Rural and Family Lands Protection Program, I think of conservation easements.
