What I would say is that it's really gonna for each for each particular development, it's gonna depend on sort of the size and scale and scope, and so it's gonna vary from project to project.
1:06:21
So for 1 zoning map amendment and another zoning map amendment, the fees may be different based on the scale and scope of the project.
