My name is Chad Abbott. I have been duly sworn. <br /> Commissioners, I'd like to thank you for your time tonight. And I hope by the end of this you will <br /> see that we have done our best to meet the findings of facts and address the items that are <br /> required for the Special Use Permit Class A in Orange County.

If you do need me to, then I can answer questions later. But, in short, I would <br />
