So the question is, there's nothing in the basement, ask them that.
La pregunta es, no hay nada en el sótano.
Oh, show us the first floor.
Muéstonos el primer piso.
Is that the first floor?

Let us see the other drawing, please.
Muéstrenos el otro dibujo, por favor.

Okay, so on the first floor
we do not see a full bathroom in the plans do you have photos please
completo. Yeah, there's not a full bathroom downstairs, but I want to build a full bathroom.
What is existing right now? What do you have there on the first floor?
¿Qué es lo que hay ahora, actualmente en ese primer piso?
La casa esta residencial es solamente una casa que hasta ahora.
it's a residential home
it's just one home so far
do you show us photos
nos puede mostrar fotos
keep going
continue
oh boy

your honor this is at jeffrey speaking i couldn't hear what he said
We're trying to see where the entrance is to the second floor.
Is that the entrance to the whole property there?
That's the entrance, and the stairs are the stairs that go to the second floor.
la propiedad está una sola residencia residencial no está dividida the property is just one
it's like a residential home just one home
would you ask them what happened when he went to the rco meeting
¿Qué pasó cuando fue a la reunión del RCO?
Yo expliqué cómo iba a hacer todo.
Well, I explained how I was going to build everything.
Questions for the board.
Preguntas de la mesa.
Yeah, could you walk us through your plans for each floor of the new construction?
Si, nos puede explicar paso por paso los planos que tiene para cada piso para la construcción?
so why don't you show the first floor and let him say everything that's on the first floor
Muestre el primer piso y díganos todo lo que está en el primer piso.
muestra el primer piso y díganos todo
Let him know that the plan doesn't make sense.
There's not a full bathroom.
There's no air.
Que el plano no tiene sentido.
No hay un baño completo ahí.
Sí, porque todavía no está.
Eso es lo que estoy proponiendo.
Yeah, it's still not there.
That's what I'm proposing.
No, we know, but what is being proposed does not make sense.
There's no full bathrooms.
There's no way for a person to shower or bathe themselves.
And there's a notation that says bedroom number two,
but there's no bedroom number one.
So we want a full idea of what is the plan for the two apartments?
How many bedrooms?
How does he think it's going to be laid out?
We do not have a bathroom, or there are no way to get a bathroom, so that a person can
have a bathroom that says in the bathroom.
