I hope our meeting will be brief and those who want to go on to the Old East meeting can head on over there. I know that some folks on the F/G alley had service discontinued some time back; however, my office is *on* that alley and gets its trash picked up from there. So I'm puzzled, and will seek clarification.

If so, I think that may have been the reason for denial, because they couldn't make the bogus "owner occupied" argument about it. I also think it really interesting that these Guideline Busting projects are surfacing just in time for a panel of neophyte commissioners. It is always interesting to see the kind of things that get approved in Davis during the summer when lots of people are out of town..
