The board holds two public hearings to consider requests; first a variance request for a new drive-thru coffee shop, Seven Brew, which seeks to develop a site without the required landscaping green strip. The second hearing brought a request from the Taco Jefe food trailer for an extension to operate while pursuing a permanent site plan. The board also discussed amendments to its rules of procedure, particularly focusing on the reconsideration process and the composition of the board. Interviews for a new alternate board member position are conducted, and former City Commissioner, Jack Urban is selected. The meeting highlights ongoing efforts to balance development with community standards and procedural integrity.
