From the transcript

And that's pretty much what I want to say about that, except for the setbacks, sensitive areas. I believe that hospitals where patients are hard to move and also living, assisted living facilities, the fire hall, places like that, uh, very important infrastructure should be protected even more than just the average, uh, structure, building, or whatever. So anyway, thank you very much. Thank you for testimony. Is there anybody else that would like to talk to this, this ordinance?
