The Commissioner expressed concern over the compatibility of the businesses, and suggested referring the item back to staff for additional vetting. County Administrator John Titkanich suggested delaying the hours of use until 6:00 p.m., after the Tax Collector's office closed, and approving the agreement with that change. Commissioner Flescher was not in favor of approving the agreement before the change had been accepted by Five Guys. County Attorney Bill DeBraal recommended pulling the item, negotiating the revision, and then bringing the item back before the Board.
