There's a large audio delay between Zoom and the live recording on City TV and publicinput.com. We will be pausing at certain times to allow that audio to catch up and give citizens time to submit comments. Moving on to the roll call. Mr. Dinkins. Here. Mr. Gregory is absent. Mr. Primus. Here.

This time should include but is not limited to an overview of the project, case history, and any pertinent meetings held regarding the request. This time also includes all persons presenting information on behalf of the applicants such as attorneys, engineers, and architects. This time limit does not include any questions asked by the Board of Zoning Appeals or staff regarding the request. Any member of the general public may address the Board in intervals of three minutes or five minutes if by a spokesperson for an established body or for a group of three or more. The applicant will then have five minutes for a buttle. The Board reserves the right to amend these procedures on a case-by-case basis. Those of you who plan to speak must be sworn. If you are here as an applicant or here to speak on any case, please stand at this time and raise your right hand. Okay, do you affirm or attest that the testimony that you will give today is the truth and nothing but the truth? Thank you. Before we move to the consent agenda items this afternoon, I do want to make an announcement that case number six, which is 631, 635, 639 Elmwood Avenue, special exception to establish an elementary, middle, or high school, was withdrawn by the applicant. Moving to the consent agenda, the Board uses the consent agenda to approve non-controversial or routine matters by a single motion and vote. If a member of the Board or the general public wishes to discuss an item on the consent agenda, that item is removed and placed on the regular agenda. The Board then approves the remaining consent agenda items. The first item on the consent agenda is the approval of the November 4th, 2021 meeting minutes. The next item is 1734 Main Street, a special exception to permit a type two eating and drinking establishment. The next item is 2021-0100-B446 Clemson Road. It's a variance request to the existing tree canopy retention standards. Give it just a minute. The next item is 2021-0101 3030 Divine Street, a variance to the minimum landscaping requirements for a medical office use. And finally, 2021-0102 1517 1513 or 1509 Dervais Street and 1212 Bull Street, a variance request to the minimum landscaping standard for a transitional buffer yard. Does anyone wish to speak on a case which would remove the case from the consent agenda prior to the board, excuse me, the board vote? If this time will pause to give time for audio to catch up and citizens to submit comments. We have no public comments at this time. Okay, well, at this time, then like to ask for a motion for the consent agenda. Move that we approve the consent agenda subject staff comments. Okay, we have a motion and second all those in favor please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? All right, motion passes. There are no items on the regular agenda this afternoon. We do have one more thing to cover. And that's the approval of the 2022 meeting calendar. And it is shown on your screen for reference there. So back in council chamber starting. Yes, with the next meeting in January, we'll start back at city hall and the meeting day and time stays the same. Do we need a motion to approve this or is this just for one? I believe we need a motion to go to approve. You do want to motion? Okay, can we get a motion to approve please? Second. Okay, we have a motion to second all those in favor please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? All right. Thank you very much. Get a motion to adjourn. So moved. Second. All right, all those in favor please say aye. Aye. All right, thank you.
