He also stated for the record that the applicant was not present at the hearing. Board member Kohlstrand stated that she would like to have a better understanding of the economic impacts to existing tenants by approving the proposed use. Board member Zuppan asked for additional information explaining the economic impacts to the existing businesses. Andrew Thomas suggested gathering and returning with more information to address the concerns raised by the board members.
