Agreement for today's approval. Staff stated that Property Agreement was sent out with the
DRC Agenda update yesterday. Mr. Chisholm explained enough time was not given to the
applicant.
Mr. Green stated he did not receive these until 4:50 yesterday and he has concerns with

Plan. The ICM requested staff to remove the conditions until the Site Plan process and
