 That's meadows, that's only two we're missing. We're correct. Chad's here. You know, if they say that the traffic was terrible, we can know that they were lying. Oh, there's Chris. Tisha. Now. All right. Good morning. Welcome to the meeting of the Durham Board of Adjustment will now come to order. Welcome to the May 26th meeting of the City of Durham City County Durham Board of Adjustment. My name is Jacob Rogers. I'm the chair of the board. I'd like to start by acknowledging that we are conducting this meeting using a remote electronic platform. This is the first remote meeting of the Durham Board of Adjustment is permitted by newly enacted session law 2020-3. I would ask for your patience today as we proceed there may be slight delays as we transition between speakers. The Board of Adjustment is a quasi-judicial body that is governed by the North Carolina General Statutes in the City's Unified Development Ordinance. The board typically conducts evidentiary hearings on request for variances, special use permits, among other requests. Today's meeting will not include any quasi-judicial evidentiary hearings, however. At today's meeting, the board is only approving minutes and orders from the prior meeting. Accordingly, the public is allowed to remotely attend today's Board of Adjustment meeting, but there will not be any participation by members of the public or applicants. Notice of today's meeting was provided by publishing notice in the newspaper and providing notice on the city's website. The notices for today's meeting contain information on how the public can access the remote meeting as the meeting occurs. Today's meeting is being broadcast live on the city's YouTube site and the link to this broadcast is on the website for the Board of Adjustment. All decisions of this board are subject to appeal to the Durham Superior Court. Anyone in the audience other than the applicant who wishes to receive a copy of the formal order issued by this board on a particular case must submit a written request for a copy of that order. So would the clerk like to call the roll? Probably got ahead of myself. Mr. Rogers. Here. Mr. Meadows. Ms. Burnham. Here. Mr. Davis. Present. Mr. Lacey. Present. Mr. Kip. Here. Mr. Regulus. Here. Ms. Jeter. Major. Ms. Waimour. So the people that just waived, you have to unmute yourself and verbally acknowledge that you are there. Meadows here. All right. I want to ask everybody to also please mute your cell phones if you don't mind. Put them on vibrate on the side just in case we don't have any disruptions. So let's see. Well, I'd like is there a motion to approve the minutes from the February 25th meeting that we're in included in our packet? Lacey. Got a motion to approve. Is there a second? Yep, second. All in favor say aye. Aye. Thank you. The next thing on the list, we've got a case. This is going to be an approval of orders for the first case. It's B-1700052. Following people are able to vote to approve this order. Burnham, Davis, Delacey, Kip, Meadows, Rogers, and Wreckless. So is there a motion to approve case B-170052? Delacey, so moved. Second. Is there a second? Wreckless second. All in favor say aye. Aye. Any opposed? OK. The next is case B-1900050. This is the folks eligible to vote on this one, is Burnham, Davis, Delacey, Kip, and Meadows. So is there a motion to approve? Burnham. Meadows, go ahead. Delacey, second. All in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Thank you. Any opposed? All right. So any old business? Any new business staff? Do you guys have any? That does not have any new business to bring up at this time. Eliza, when they're speaking from the planning department. So we do know that we'll have a meeting on June 23, right? And that could be we're not going to hear any contentious cases. Do you want to give a rundown on the June meetings, Eliza, or do you want me to? I can give a brief rundown on those June meetings. For Eliza, when you're speaking for the planning department, sorry about that. For those June meetings, we do have quite a bit of a backlog, as I mentioned in my emails. So we are going to hold two June meetings. We will have one on June 23 at 8.30 and one on June 30 at 8.30 in the morning. Both of those have about seven cases at this time. And we will be advertising for those starting this week. So there is a chance that the case number might decrease, depending upon any input we get from the public going forward. But at this time, there are seven cases per agenda. And they're a mix of single family and commercial. Once we finish those two, we should be caught up pretty well and be back on schedule from our original agenda calendar, and we'll be hearing cases in the order that they've been received during this time. I think we've got confirmations from most of the board members that they will be able to attend both of those, haven't we? From what I've gotten via email, and everyone, thank you for responding. It looks like we'll have most of the board will be at both of those meetings. And I am asking if you're able to come to those meetings for the entire duration, just because, as I mentioned, we've got some people that have been waiting for quite a bit of time to come in before you all. So if you could stay the entire time, that will be great. I do see that Chad has his hand raised. So I'm going to turn the floor over to him. I think he might have a question. Thanks, Eliza. I had two questions. The first one, three questions. The first question is, I assume that the packets will be out, will be coming out, and will be solely in digital format. Is that right? That is correct. So we are not in, none of us are in the city hall at this time. So the ability to go in and print in mail, we have very little amount of time that we're approved to be in city hall. So that would be too much of that time, in which we're allowed to be there. There are other things that we have to do. So they will be solely digital packets for those two meetings, and any meetings going forward until we can get back into a normal schedule being in city hall. Understood. Next question. I think I recall from a prior discussion that we, the board, if we had questions for staff regarding application matters that those needed to be in your hands 24 hours before the next meeting, is that correct? Questions regarding application matters in terms of the information. Yes, so if you have any questions about anything that you've received in your packet, we need to know that before the meeting, just so that we can make sure everyone has the same amount of information. It's not like before we could pass it out, and we're all at the table. So if you have any questions or if there's anything that's not matching up, definitely reach out to myself, Jessica, Cole, or Susan 24 hours beforehand. During those meetings, we each have our own roles, so it'll be really hard to go and grab something for you. Even though it's all digital, it'll be a little bit tougher. So if you have any questions, 24 hours beforehand, please reach out to one of the four of us. And those questions go to you there. We don't copy the rest of the board members. Those are just to the four of you guys. That's correct. One more. Does everybody know how to use the raise hand feature in Zoom, or could you talk about that so that folks know what to do for the 23rd? Yeah, so thank you. No problem at all. So I'm going to lower chat. In order for us to, as you might have noticed earlier, when we're all speaking within this service, sometimes it can be kind of hard to hear. So in order to kind of keep things running and very fluid so we can hear everyone, we're asking that you all raise your hand, and then one of the staff members will acknowledge your hand and also let Jacob know that, hey, someone has raised their hand. You'll also notice the chat function is not being used during this time. That is something we're asking you all not to use at all unless you, by chance, have a tech issue. And then that would be the only thing we would like for you all to have there. So in order to raise your hand, if you ever go into where there's the participants, is everyone on a web, a computer, I should say, or phone? But essentially, you would click Participants, and then beside your name, you're able to raise your hand if you press the More button. I see someone just raised their hand. Hi, Susan. So you can raise your hand and lower your hand in that function. So the way that I just saw Susan's, I can see everyone's. And I'm able to acknowledge as they come in. We're just asking for that because we are having to record these meetings for records for minutes. And once again, it makes it easier if each of us is speaking one at a time as opposed to all at once. And that's all the new business that I have in regards to those two June meetings. So please make sure those are on your calendars for 8.30 on the 23rd and the 30th. Thank you, Eliza. Does anybody have anything else? Questions? I have something to say, but I'm still not figuring out the raised hand part. So I just can't make the 30th meeting. I can make the 23rd. So I just wanted to let you know. I tried to reschedule something, and I couldn't do it. Thank you. All right. Well, thank you all for joining us this morning. And thank you for taking the time and getting this out of the way. I'm sure the folks, the applicants, are glad that we could get this out. Mr. Chairman? Yes, sir. Yes, ma'am. Would the chair entertain a motion to adjourn? I would. I so move. There's a second. Burn on second. All in favor, say aye. Aye. All right, we're adjourned until June 23rd at 8.30 AM. Thank you. Stay safe. Have a good day.
