Seeing none, will the staff please present the case? Yes, thank you, Chair. Uh, so this— we are looking to amend Title 21 to make a text amendment. This is the, the draft AO we have currently, and we wanted to get feedback from this board while we're still crafting this AO. So sorry for some confusion on the logistics of how this would work, but Our thought was you could make a recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission since this would be a future public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission, and the Planning and Zoning Commission would make a recommendation to the Assembly as to the adoption of the AO.
