I'm,
making
Madam

I'm
just
curious
it
just
his
amending
occupancy
regulations
and
that's
rather
vague
oftentimes.
When
we
get
an
introduction,
we
get
a
slightly
more
of
an
indication
about
what
direction
our
intention
is
behind
the
amendment
and
if
there
is
any
more
information,
I
think
perhaps.
J
President,
thank
you.
Councilmember
Gordon,
happy
to
clarify
it.
Yes,
amending
zoning
occupancy
regulations,
we're
looking
at
the
potential
of
lifting
some
of
them.
We
don't
know
about
the
specifics
yet.
Obviously,
there's
quite
a
bit
of
engagement
to
do
an
addict
of
a
lot
of
work
with
staff.
I
give
you
my
word
that
I
will
work
with
your
offer.
Your
office.
A
A
Next,
to
have
resolutions
and
under
resolutions,
we
have
an
honorary
resolution.
Honoring
Latonia
green,
who
was
our
budget
director
and
has
is
pursuing
a
perhaps
more
important
career,
has
the
chief
financial
officer

the
city
of
brooklyn
park
and
so
we're
delighted
to
have
had
her
in
the
city
but
wish
her
well
in
her
new
endeavor.
So
any
discussion
on
that
honorary
resolution,
seeing
none
all
in
approval,
say
aye
aye
opposed
that
carries
next.
A
Is
the

I
introduced
at
the
beginning
of
the

and
it's
an
honorary

Any
discussion
on
that
resolution,
seeing
none
all
in
approval,
say
aye
aye
opposed
that
carries
next.
