From the transcript
But I feel like knowing that it has that strong community support for the 5-ship limit, And then by putting it in ordinance, really formalizing that local control, um, is what this is about for me. And we did get this from staff a year ago, but we all know things take time. So it feels like a good time now to assert that local control with something that we know is working, that we got to collaboratively. So, That's my only thoughts. Thank you, Ms. Scandies.
