rain tree development. i support the continuance although we're requesting it be pushed out further first there's a tree removal appraisal scheduled and board of appeals that's regarding the removal of two significant trees at the site if we prevail at that appeal there would be significant design challenges to move forward. it seems good soon may first to come before the commission again and that appeal hadn't happened. the second is the proposed height of this project we believe a new shadow study needs to be done and that's not been
8:05 pm
done the third reason would be there are some 60 legal codes depraved south facing windows on the building that are not shown in the plan the information before you so we need time to address how those windows will be treated. again some more time and ultimately time to meet with the dealerships as homeowners and come up with a responsible development that allows 80 us to co- exist and we're requesting a turns out in may for the issues that be resolved >> thank you. >> >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi, i'm laurie i live on illinois street. i have something i want to show can you use the overhead >> as long as it's about the

8:12 pm
there is currently another appeal pevent at the board of appeals for may 7 so it doesn't make or make sense to hold a hearing before that date. in my opinion if you saw my brief and e-mails this 0 needs to be renoticed under section 312 the staff has deferred it so we good thing whether it will be renoticed the elevation for the public in general i don't know how that can be skipped over. that's the kind of information the simple elevation that should have been not rushed through a final hearing for approval so we're waiting for the determination from staff this goes for the vial.
8:13 pm
