The parties for item number 11, this is appeal number 19016 have come to an agreement and they would like to address the board on this agreement.

So the subject permit that is before you for 157 marview way is the result of an enforcement action for work on the facade that was done without benefit of the permit and the permit is attempting to correct that. I wont go into full consideration of the boards calendar, but we have reached a compromise agreement on a project that may move forward. I have
