As far as entertainment, he described his restaurant operation as similar to many other local restaurants, like Pineapple Joe's, with al band inside providing entertainment for the bar and restaurant. Mr. Peterson confirmed that adding this sort of entertainment in a restaurant with bar would not impose different requirements from the building code  perspective.

Mr.A Andersen,  lam the Town Attorney for St. Lucie Village. Irealize that the Village is not a party to your arrangement with the County butlhave suggested a conceptual solution to locating the Heritage Preserve boundaries that we believe should work for everyone.  Generally, that's to hold the south corners as you've depicted but establish the parcel's east boundary by running northerly west of the neighbor's fence and establishing the west boundary with a parallel line that I'm thinking will miss that neighbor's drain field and  pavers. See attached PDF (not to scale) depiction.  Ihave been asked to follow up with you about this concept and the County's Purchase Order, also attached. lunderstand that funds referenced in the PO are available if paid this month. And, Itake it that the County thinks that surveying, marking the corners and providing a legal for a description in this fashion should meet their requirements if you would doit under the existing PO; but, please follow up with County ERD, Ms. Griffin or Ms. Bordinger,  about terms and payment. (See emails below.)  And, iflcan help by providing further input/explanation of the Village's conceptual solution,  please let me know.

Ithink our best option for paying the May invoices for Phase 2 Sewer and Potable Water would be to pay them now from our cash reserves and wait until we receive June invoices to submit a Payment Request fora all of Quarter 2. Our reimbursement for Quarter 2 invoices through May for both projects would then be $40,040.37, the sum of our share of April and May invoices. When we receive the. June invoices, Icould prepare a Payment Request that would include reimbursement for the April and Mayi invoices ($40,040.37) and Advanced Pay Request for the. June invoices if they are substantial. I ran this by Milica this morning and she is fine with mixing reimbursement and advanced pay on the same request. If we are comfortable paying the. June invoices, Iwould just submit al Payment Request for reimbursement for all and not use the advanced pay option. We could make the call as to what is "substantial" when we get the. June invoices. Are both ofy you comfortable with carrying the $40,040.37 until we receive the. June invoices? The other option ist to prepare al Payment Request for April and May now, then a separate one in.
