From the transcript
Mr. Norris. Yeah, I just want to real quickly call back to, uh, item F, case 20260076. Just, uh, put it out there, I did send an email, a follow-up email to staff asking them to take a look at the dimensional standards, because if we're going to look at what is reasonable for a minor modification, I felt it was reasonable for us to look at the dimensional standards themselves and see if they were still applicable and still serving us well. Leave it up to the Planning Department what to do that— do with that, but I'm happy to support them and answer any questions they have, uh, off the record or in future meetings. Thanks.
