THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT.

BOARD MEMBERS HERE TO BRING FORWARD AN AMENDMENT WITH ALLEY CAT.

ALLEY CATS IS REQUESTING AN AMENDMENT TO THE 380 AGREEMENT.

THEIR FINANCING IS THE CONSTRUCTION OF IT THROUGH THE SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.

THE REQUEST IS DUE TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SBA.

ONE OF THE MAJOR REQUIREMENTS IS THEY NEED 15% OF THEIR ELECTRICITY TO COME FROM SOLAR DUE TO THIS REQUIREMENT, ALLEY CATS NEEDED TO REDESIGN THE ROOF AND ELECTRICAL TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT AND THE WIND LOAD OF THE SOLAR PANELS.

THEY'RE JUST REQUESTING TO PUSH OUT THOSE DATES FOR COMPLETION.

DATE CAST. CAPITAL INVESTMENT REQUIREMENT DATE.

RELOCATION OF THE CORPORATE HEADQUARTER DATE AND THE OPENING DATE TO BE PUSHED OUT TO AUGUST OF 24.

THEY'VE COMPLETED THE PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY COMMENCING CONSTRUCTION.

THEY HAVE COMPLETED THAT WITH THE DEFINITION, WITH THE INSTALLATION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL FENCING AND PLACEMENT OF THE DROP TRAILER.

AGAIN, THOSE OTHER DATES, THOSE NEXT THREE ARE JUST THE ONES PUSHING IT OUT TO AUGUST OF 24.

AND HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, APPROVE OR DENY THE 380 AMENDMENT.

I THANK YOU, ALEX. QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS.

THERE ARE TWO RULES I KNOW ABOUT CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, AND IT SEEMS THAT THE ALLEY CATS ORGANIZATION IS FEELING THAT PAIN.

ONE IS THAT IT ALWAYS TAKES LONGER THAN YOU THINK, AND SECOND, THAT IT ALWAYS COST MORE THAN YOU THINK.

SO I THINK THEY'VE LEARNED THIS.

SO MY SYMPATHIES TO THEM AND I'M CONSIDERING HOW BADLY WE WANT TO HAVE THEM COME TO THE COMMUNITY.

I'M MORE THAN WILLING TO TO WAIT.

I THINK IT'S SAD THAT IT TOOK A YEAR LONGER, BUT AT LEAST WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

WE'VE WAITED TEN YEARS, ANOTHER YEAR IS NOT GOING TO BE THAT BIG OF A DIFFERENCE.

ALL RIGHT. THAT'S GOOD.

MOTION FROM ANYONE.

I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE.

ALL RIGHT. I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR AND THAT MOTION PASSES BY.

UNANIMOUS VOTE. NEXT ON OUR AGENDA IS CITIZEN APPEARANCES.
