<br /> 5 VOTE: 4-1. Beth Bronson opposed.
<br /> 6
<br /> 7 Leon Meyers: All right, Ms. Strack, thank you for being here. Ken Davidson. Is Ken Davidson here?
<br /> 8 Mr. Davidson please come forward. You may have heard all that you care to hear about
<br /> 9 standing tonight, but I think I'm going to ask you please to direct your comments specifically
<br /> 10 toward using competent material and substantial evidence to show how you may suffer special
<br /> 11 damages to qualify for, as a person with standing to participate in the hearing.
<br /> 12 Ken Davidson: Yes, sir. Eleanor. How you doing? I've talked with her quite a bit. We've talked about the
<br /> 13 road. We've talked about a lot, a lot of things. My big thing is there's a lot of traffic in and out.
<br /> 14 There's a lot of dust. It damages my fruit trees. When she first started it was three of them
<br /> 15 that should have never had a farm before. I mean, she got goats. She let them run free.
<br /> 16 They ate her trees. They ate my trees, but like I told her, I can't prove it, even though I saw
<br /> 17 your goat eating the trees, I can't prove your goat killed my trees as opposed to that deer that
<br /> 18 came up the night before, but there's, the issue here is going to be whether a business really
<br /> 19 should be put in the middle of a residential neighborhood, and that being said, I mean, you're
<br /> 20 talking about between 30 to 50 cars a day going in and then coming out and then leaving for
<br /> 21 lunch, and they coming back again, and although I believe in what she's doing, which I really
<br /> 22 do. I really do. I believe what she's doing. I've told her that before, but I just don't think that
<br /> 23 putting a business in the middle of a residential neighborhood is really the best thing to do.
<br /> 24
<br /> 25 Leon Meyers: I understand, Mr. Davidson. May I ask you why you believe you qualify as a person with
<br /> 26 standing to participate in tonight's hearing?
<br /> 27
<br /> 28 Ken Davidson: That's one of the reasons. The other reason is like I said, these people coming in and out,
<br /> 29 and I understand where they're coming from, they, they don't, really don't care. They're
<br /> 30 coming in. They're leaving. They don't care. They don't care if the road is tore up. They
<br /> 31 don't care if it's got bumps on it. You know, they, and it's just like she doesn't live there either,
<br /> 32 and I'm not saying she doesn't care, but I'm saying if it was anybody else, and somebody
<br /> 33 came to their property and put a business beside of their property, and they had 40 or 50 cars
<br /> 34 coming in and out, speeding, speeding, would they want to call the police and say there's a
<br /> 35 crazy person running up and down the driveway, man.
<br /> 36
<br /> 37 Leon Meyers: Thank you, sir. Board members, any questions for Mr. Davidson regarding his standing, his
<br /> 38 position as a person with standing in tonight's hearing?
<br /> 39
<br /> 40 Beth Bronson: Have you brought any document where you've experienced that?
<br /> 41
<br /> 42 Ken Davidson: I can't understand you. Say again.
<br /> 43
<br /> 44 Beth Bronson: Do you, have you brought any documentation with you tonight that would provide in evidence
<br /> 45 to the effect of like, like loss of fruit trees and or a police report for people on your property,
<br /> 46 trespassing? No. Okay.
<br /> 47
<br /> 48 Ken Davidson: Like I said the people coming in and out,they coming and going, and I don't blame them they,
<br /> 49 they don't care what the road looks like. They're just coming into that business, and then
<br /> 50 they're leaving, and that's, that's my whole point.
