24 Draft <br /> 1 without any demonstration, without any evidentiary material that has any level of professional <br /> 2 support. In this case, given that two people from the association have demonstrated that they <br /> 3 actually have the professional background and would be able to present, my tilt is to allow the <br /> 4 continuance with the expectation, like you said, that that documentation would be able to be <br /> 5 provided when we reconvene. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Leon Meyers: But we would have no control over that, of course, but except to say that it would be the board's <br /> 8 expectation? <br /> 9 <br /> 10 Nathan Robinson: Well, if they didn't come with it because they didn't feel like spending the money, then that's life <br /> 11 and then we carry on. <br /> 12 <br /> 13 Beth Bronson: So, because we've already rules on their standing to provide a continuance? <br /> 14 <br /> 15 Leon Meyers: We ruled on Mr. Weidner's standing that that's the one- <br /> 16 <br /> 17 Beth Bronson: Mrs. Weidner, Miss Weidner. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Leon Meyers: Sorry, Ms. Weidner's standing. We just ruled against. <br /> 20 <br /> 21 Beth Bronson: Against, okay. <br /> 22 <br /> 23 Leon Meyers: Board members, it's 8:30. We should hear the case or if we're going to consider a continuance, <br /> 24 now would be the time. <br /> 25 <br /> 26 Nathan Robinson: The balance is, is it fair to Mr. Patil to have prepared this stuff and have followed the rules. Is it fair <br /> 27 to him? <br /> 28 <br /> 29 Jeff Scott: I think that's, yeah, to Nathan's point— <br /> 30 <br /> 31 Leon Meyers: Folks, if you're going to talk out, I'm going to ask somebody to help you out of the room. <br /> 32 <br /> 33 Jeff Scott: All right, we've talked about this standing issue before and I look at this letter and I say, you know, I <br /> 34 wish there was more information saying that like, okay, here's some of the guidelines that you <br /> 35 need to establish, so you can't come back into these meetings and say you didn't know. I wish <br /> 36 there was more of that, but we're not commissioners. Like we're not qualified to make that. That's <br /> 37 a whole other thing. Like we're just here to make decisions based on the rules that we follow. So, <br /> 38 1 mean in that case like I'm unfortunately not for a continuance if we're just following the laws or the <br /> 39 guidelines that we have to follow. <br /> 40 <br /> 41 Beth Bronson: I would have to agree with you. <br /> 42 <br /> 43 Jeff Scott: Even if I disagree. <br /> 44 <br /> 45 Beth Bronson: Yeah. <br /> 46 <br /> 47 Leon Meyers: Mr. Patil, do you care to speak to the notion of continuing the hearing in order to give your <br /> 48 neighbors a chance to put together their case? <br /> 49 <br /> 50 Vinitha Cardoza: Meeting for continuance because most of the accusations that got done are not true. I would like <br /> 24 <br />
