What were they? What were you telling the city commission about this arbitration process?
8:51
Okay.
8:53
Yeah, just a little bit of background is that there's an option available to developers in the state of Florida.
9:01
The acronym is FLUIDRA.
9:03
It's the Florida Land Use and Environmental Dispute Resolution Act.
9:07
And it basically allows developers, when they've had a project rejected by a city, to have an alternative approach to try to get it approved.
9:17
And the process involves the two parties or the developer's team and the city staff, and they select a magistrate to serve as first a mediator and then an arbitrator for a way to resolve the project to then go back to the city commission to, from the developer's standpoint, hopefully get approved.
