it's907.84 similar908.15 to908.55 how908.72 you908.88 would909.04 treat909.2 a910.55 person910.72 who's911.04 just911.2 living911.43 there911.6 and911.84 using912 it912.24 for912.48 their912.63 day913.14 to913.3 day913.38 activities913.78 and914.18 having914.74 guests914.98 over.915.3 916.5 So,916.74 in916.74 that916.9 case,917.14 if921.32 you921.55 had921.72 a922.04 three922.27

within936.39 the936.71 ordinance936.79 as937.35 proposed.937.43 Also,939.74 to939.98 clarify,940.22 I940.7 did940.86 ask941.1 our941.42 assessor,941.65 because943.89 I944.38 think944.46 this944.7

the972.38 two972.54 types972.77 of973.01 things973.1 that973.34 are973.5 now973.65 allowed973.89 for974.22 a974.46 short974.54 term974.77 rental.974.93 It's975.34 owner975.65 occupied975.98 and977.07

a1053.15 lot1053.32 of1053.47 details.1053.63 It1054.19 also1054.36 provides1054.67 a1054.99 lot1055.08 of1055.23 opportunities1056.67 for1057.15 us1057.32 to1057.55 fill1057.71 it1057.88 in1058.03

the1066.16 key1066.4 there1066.64 is1066.88 that1067.04 it1067.28 provides1067.44 the1068.08 details1068.32 of1068.72 what1069.3 you1069.46 would1069.7 have1069.87 to1070.11 submit,1070.18 how1070.59

was1077.22 in1077.46 place,1077.54 and1078.65 it1078.89 also1078.97 sets1079.53 up1079.85 the1079.93 rules1081.61 for1081.93 how1082.17 the1082.41 enforcement1082.57 would1083.13 be1083.29 and1083.45 how1083.77 many1084.09 times1084.41 and1084.81 what1085.13 type1085.69 of1085.93 enforcement1086.09 it1086.48 would1086.73 be.1086.89 If1088.38 the1088.63 question1088.79 has1089.11 arisen1089.35 in1089.66 the1089.83 past,1089.9 I1090.79 will1090.95 clarify1091.18 that1091.66 a1091.9 zoning1092.07 violation,1092.55 it1093.35 is1093.51 what1093.75 is1093.99 being1094.44 proposed1094.6

Brookline,1450.56 and1451.33 then1451.48 came1451.64 here1451.8 and1452.13 didn't1452.28 see1452.52 each1454.13 other1454.28 as1454.52 much1454.61 because1454.85 of1455.16 the1455.4 location1455.57 and1456.04 distance.1456.2 1457.01 I1457.01 thought1457.09 that1457.33 was1457.48 an1457.64 interesting1457.8 example1458.91 of1459.63 the1459.87 reality1460.03 of1460.43 how1460.99 these1461.23 are1461.39 used,1461.63 also1462.99 because1463.39 of1464.03 the1464.19 location1464.35 of1464.75 Watertown1464.91 near1465.97 the1466.21 universities1466.29 and1467.33 the1467.49 hospitals,1468.68 I1469.33 would1469.49 assume1469.64 that1469.97 that's1470.21 some1470.24 of1470.28 those1470.53 uses.1470.68 So1476.56 with1477.04 that,1477.36 I'm1482.96 trying1483.2 to1483.44 see1483.53 if1483.68 there's1483.85 any1484.09 other1484.33 comments1484.8 that1485.44 have1485.68 come1485.92 up1486.09 during1486.33 the1486.64 process1486.72 that1487.2 I've1487.37 missed.1487.61 So,1488.33 I1488.57 think1488.64 with1489.13 that,1489.44 from1490.19 a1490.43 staff's1490.51 perspective,1491.07 we've1491.55 tried1492.19 to1492.51 facilitate1492.67 the1493.63 amendment1493.79 process.1494.27 But1495.39 throughout1495.63 the1496.11 whole1496.19 process,1496.43 we1497.33 hosted1497.57 community1498.21 meetings1498.61 at1498.85 the1499.01 beginning1499.16 of1499.57 the1499.73 process.1499.81 We1500.13 had1500.29 an1500.45 online1500.61 survey,1502.05 we1503.01 brought1503.01 a1504.29 process1504.45 together1504.92 with1505.4 the1505.57 Boston1507.03 University1507.43 Metro1508.55 Bridge1508.87 Program1509.19 and1509.99 had1510.23 some1510.39 students1510.63 take1511.19 a1511.27 look1511.35 at1511.59 that1512.23 and1512.47 best1512.71 practices,1512.95 and1513.59 this1514.13 was1514.29 back1514.53 at1514.68 the1515.24 beginning1515.48 before1515.88 we1516.21 had1516.29 any1516.53 zoning1516.77 amendment.1517.16 1518.05 So,1518.13 we1518.13 were1518.37 listening1518.53 to1518.92 what1519.16 people1519.4 were1519.73 saying1519.88 in1520.13 the1520.21 community1520.37 and1521.57 proposing1522.77 some1523.33 language1523.48 around.1524.35 I1524.99 think1525.07 at1525.31 the1525.39 time,1525.55 it1525.87 was1525.95 a1526.91 pretty1527.07 logical1527.39 assumption1527.87 that1528.19 we1528.35 wanted1528.51 to1528.75 just1528.91 regulate1529.31 them1529.79 to1530.59 create1530.91 a1531.39 clear1532.28 guide1533.15 and1533.56 clear1534.28 language1534.84 within1535.32 the1535.56 ordinance1535.72 because1536.12 the1536.99 ordinance1537.15 is1537.48 gray.1537.63 It1537.96 says,1539.05 you1539.29 know,1539.53 when1539.77 it's1540.33 not1540.41 in1540.57 there,1540.73 it1541.05 is1541.21 in1541.45 theory,1541.61 no,1541.93 but1542.25 it's1543.13 subject1543.29 to1543.69 interpretation,1543.85 arguments,1545.69 etcetera.1546.17 So,1547.11 we1547.27 went1547.42 through1547.51 that1547.74 process,1547.98 and1548.46 then1548.63 we1548.87 brought1549.03 forward1549.35 some1549.66 zoning1550.46 amendment1550.87 language.1551.27 Then1552.22 we1552.38 went1552.46 through1552.71 a1553.98 multi1554.22 month,1555.37 I1555.93 think1556.01
