a consent public hearing item seeing no members of the public does any commissioner or staff wish to remove a consent public hearing item I yes I would uh just like to comment on item 5c there was a memorandum prepared adding some context to that memorandum is that upon initial review it appeared that there would be insufficient parking with the expansion of the school upon further review it was identified there is sufficient parking on site so initially there was going to be a requirement that at the current get bus stop that they install a bench in overhead protection and that would allow for a 10% Transit credit uh but since there's efficient parking that bench in that um overhead is not required so condition B2 is being requested for deletion it does not prevent them from still installing that at some point in time to assist with the students but it's just not a requirement thank you for the clarification with that um are there any Commissioners wishing to remove an item for separate uh discussion seeing no um Commissioners removing this time the consent public hearing items uh 5 a through 5c are now closed may get a motion to adopt staff's recommendation on consent item
