And this is a case where i would want to see that happen, and we can talk to the City Attorney about how phase approvals work. I dont want it to just be an excavation project and they put a backhoe on it and thats it. I would want there to be the hearing is scheduled, unless there is a Serious Movement towards phase completion for the project. Commissioner johnson supervisor do i hear a second .
