my name's quinton platte. thank you for taking the time to hear everyone speak today. this has been an issue that has clearly a lot of time has been spent on. this is public comment, but to me it's a very personal issue, and i just want to express how much i support a fair process. and i do agree that the neighborhoods should weigh in on what businesses are open and have a chance to judge the people opening the businesses in their community and make sure they are actually going to be a part of their community and deserve to have that opportunity, but there was a process in place and a lot of people made decisions. personally in their lives, financially, planning for their futures, based on the process that was outlined, that was already in place and approved. so while i do think that it's important for areas that have a conditional use authorization to, you know, that team to be qualified, i also don't think it's a very good idea to open it back up and to go back and now change the process yet again. friend of mine also asked me to speak on his behalf a little bit, bec
