And for the Assembly ordinance, staff will draft that the rezoning will take effect upon submittal of all 4 final plats. So with that particular statement, it's very similar to what we've done for the subdivisions that were related to rezones in Uzinkee and Old Harbor, that the subdivisions have to have their final plat submitted before the rezoning takes effect.
