Council Member Kevin C. Riley engages in a Q&A session with Eric Palatnik, a Land Use Attorney, regarding a rezoning application. They discuss the impact on non-applicant controlled sites, parking requirements, and community preferences.
- The rezoning application does not include development plans for a nearby non-applicant controlled site.
 - Parking spots were increased from 46 to 60 based on community requests.
 - Riley emphasizes the importance of considering community preferences in development plans.

                                        east of the proposed development site?

                                        Right.

                                        That's the shoemaker as we call him because it's just it's owned by a gentleman who's a shoemaker.

                                        That property is not a part of the rezoning application.

                                        We've it was not a part of development site, although it's a part of the rezoning application.

                                        We would have no objection if anybody wanted to make an action to amend the application and eliminate that site and cut it from the rezoning.

                                        There's no proposed development to occur on that site.

                                        And I saw in the exit, the previous proposal, there was, I think like 46 parking spots.

                                        Now you increased it to 60.

                                        60 parking spots.
