When we left off at thelastmeeting, Commissioners, we had granted the applicant for contested case standing in the matter. That came to us from the Orchidland Community Association. At this time, we will begin the mornings deliberations where we left off with that discussion of the contested case, well receive public testimony, and continue with decision-making as is appropriate. So, at this time, Id like to invite the applicant and his representative, and the representative from the Orchidland Community Association to the table, please. At this time Id like to swear the applicant and the representative from the Community Association in for the record. Will you all please raise your right hands.
