I CALL IT TO ORDER AND [INAUDIBLE] IF YOU WANT TO INTRODUCE IT AND THEN I ASSUME WE'LL GO TO DARCY. GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE.WE'LL RECONVENE OUR HEARING AND WE'LL HEAR APPEAL NUMBER 21-005.
THANK YOU, DARCY. THIS IS A PLAN 2564 BLOCK 30 LOT 35 ROLL 30003500 . OK, SO WE'LL HEAR RIGHT NOW FROM.
SO YOU HAD FURTHER MEETINGS DARCY, IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT ON THAT? YOU HAD FURTHER MEETINGS OR.
YES, THE APPELLANT IS REQUESTING MORE TIME, I'M AMENABLE TO THAT.
OK, SO THAT'S A MS. [INAUDIBLE] DO YOU WANT TO TALK THEN? SURE. AS WE DISCUSSED WHEN WHEN WE LAST ASSEMBLED THIS, THIS IS A COMPLEX PROPERTY AND THERE'S A COMPLEX UNDERLYING ASSESSMENT VALUATION.
AND I'VE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW IT, AT LEAST ON A CURSORY BASIS.
THE VALUATION RECORD THAT WAS PROVIDED BY DARCY THE DAY BEFORE OUR LAST PROCEEDINGS AND MY REVIEW TO DATE IS REVEALED THERE ARE, IN MY OPINION, SOME ISSUES WITH THE VALUATION.
HOWEVER, TWO WEEKS IS A BRIEF TIME FRAME FOR PROPERTY OF THIS NATURE, AND IT WAS AMBITIOUS AS DARCY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE TO HAVE IT REVIEWED IN TIME FOR TODAY.
TWO WEEKS WAS INDEED AN INSUFFICIENT TIME FRAME WITHIN WHICH TO CONDUCT A THOROUGH INVESTIGATION INTO THE ASSESSMENT.
AND DARCY AND I SPOKE YESTERDAY, AND WE'RE BOTH IN AGREEMENT THAT IT WOULD BE BEST FOR THIS TO BE ADDRESSED POTENTIALLY AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE AND POTENTIALLY BY THE TRIBUNAL. AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THAT WAS WE ARE UNDER TIME CONSTRAINTS THAT MAKE THAT ALMOST INEVITABLE.
IS THAT THE CASE WOULD BOTH PARTY'S AGREE? YEAH, PRETTY MUCH.
IT'S A COMMON OCCURRENCE TO WHEN MORE TIME IS REQUESTED IN NATURE LIKE THIS WITH ONE APPELLANT JUST TO NOT DELAY THE CITY'S PROCESS, BUT MOVE ON TO THE TRIBUNAL, IT GIVES BOTH PARTIES AMPLE TIME TO REVIEW THE ASSESSMENT.
IT'S QUITE COMPLEX AND I FIGURED IT WOULD BE SO.
THE BEST METHOD IS JUST TO CONFIRM THE ASSESSMENT AT ITS CURRENT LEVELS AND MOVE ON TO THE TRIBUNAL. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, NIELS, DAVE.
YEAH, I MEAN, IF BOTH ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT I WOULD MOVE THAT THAT WE DO SO.
YOU SECOND, DAVE? YOU KNOW, I JUST HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE SOUND CERTAINLY SEEMS LIKE A VERY GOOD PROPOSAL TO ME AND I WILL SECOND THE MOTION.
SEEING NONE, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF CONFIRMING THE ASSESSMENT, NIELS.
AGREED. OK, SO IT IS AND, I GUESS YOU'LL BE MOVING FORWARD ON YOUR OWN.
DOES THAT CONCLUDE THE BUSINESS FOR US [INAUDIBLE].
YES, THAT CONCLUDES THE BUSINESS, UNLESS THE BOARD HAS ANY RECOMMENDATIONS.
BOARD MEMBERS. I JUST WANTED TO COMMENT [INAUDIBLE] ANYTHING THAT WE DIDN'T WORK PARTICULARLY HARD ON THE FIRST DAY WE CONVENED, WE HAVEN'T DONE VERY MUCH NOW, SO YOU SHOULD ONLY BE PAID FOR ONE DAY.
SAVE THE CITY SOME MONEY. OK, OK.
OK, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE? NO, I'M GOOD, THANKS.
OK, SO WE NEED A MOTION TO ADJOURN.
OK, SO I THINK I DAVE THEN NIELS, OK, SO ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF ADJOURNMENT.
OK, SO WE STAND ADJOURNED, [INAUDIBLE] I GUESS THAT YOU WILL BE PRODUCING MINUTES AND IT'LL BE UP TO ME TO SIGN THEM AT THE TIME.
WE'LL PREPARE LETTERS TO NOTIFY EVERYONE OF THE DECISION AND WILL DETERMINE IT.
OK. AND ON BEHALF OF THE CITY, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR SERVING ON THE BOARD.
DAVE DO YOU WANT TO RESPOND TO THAT AT ALL.
NO, IT'S ALWAYS A GREAT EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH PEOPLE LIKE [INAUDIBLE] AND DARCY, AND THESE THINGS USUALLY RUN PRETTY SMOOTHLY.
WE HAVE SOME REAL PROFESSIONALS AT CITY HALL.
THAT'S GOOD SPEAKING FOR ALL OF US.
NIELS LAST COMMENTS. NO, I'M GOOD.
I MEAN, I WAS ELECTED TO BE HERE BY THE PEOPLE JUST DOING MY JOB.
OK, WELL, WE'LL STAND ADJOURNED THEN AND THANKS EVERYONE FOR PARTICIPATING.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. HAVE A GOOD DAY, EVERYBODY.

BYE.
