PLEDGE TO THE FLAG: The pledge was given. F. AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS: G. PUBLIC FORUM: COMMENTS TO BE READ BY STAFF Joe Ruble As a native citizen and business owner in Naperville, as well as a board member of Little Friends, I would like to voice my support for the agenda item "conditional use to allow 45 single family attached units on the property located at 140 and 126 North Wright Street." The current owners of this property have complied with all of the requirements and recommendations of the City Council and have been able to find a buyer for the property that provides the "win-win-win" the city council was hoping to achieve. Now, if the City Council City of Naperville Page 3 Printed on 10/8/2020 City Council Meeting Minutes September 15, 2020 doesn't approve this conditional use permit, the sale of the property would be in jeopardy and Little Friends would be immeasurably harmed. I humbly request that the City Council approve the conditional use permit instead of moving the goal posts once again. SPEAKERS Little Friends Mark Urda reported the unanimous Historic Preservation Commission decision to deny the variances requested by the developer. Revenue from legalized adult-use cannabis sales Marilyn Schweitzer spoke in favor of applying revenue toward mental health awareness programs. Naperville named a Dementia Friendly Community Jim Hill (Senior Task Force) thanked Council and staff for achieving this national designation. H.
