LET'S GO QUICK.

UH, BOB MCCARTHY, 2 5 1 1 WEST GREEN CREEK ROAD, UNIT 1 0 9.

I LIVE AT THE CAVES IN, IN CHANDLER.

SO MY WIFE AND I, UH, ORIGINALLY FROM MINNESOTA MOVED TO GILBERT, BIG NEIGHBORHOOD IN GILBERT.

UM, BUT THEN WE BECAME EMPTY NESTERS AND WHEN WE WENT LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO LIVE, WE WERE, UH, HAY.

WE GOTTA GO TO SCOTTSDALE 'CAUSE THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE SCOTTSDALE IN THE EAST VALLEY, EVEN THOUGH WE LOVE THE EAST VALLEY.

AND THEN WE RAN INTO DOWNTOWN OCOTILLO.

AND I GOTTA TELL YOU, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT DREW US WAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO, SINCE BOTH OF US TRAVEL, WAS TO COME HOME ON A FRIDAY NIGHT, GET UP SATURDAY, NOT HAVE TO GET IN THE CAR AND GO TO CHOP WITH THE LIVING ROOM, GO TO BALL AND BEAN, GO, WHATEVER IT IS.

AND ONE OF OUR MOST FAVORITE THINGS TO DO IS TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT, ESPECIALLY A BALL AND BEAN WHERE THEY HAVE THE GRASS AREA IS WHEN THEY HAVE THE DIFFERENT PERFORMERS COME AND PLAY JUST TO KICK BACK, RELAX AND LISTEN TO THAT MUSIC.

AND IT IS THE NUMBER ONE REASON WE CHOSE TO ACTUALLY MOVE TO THE CASE.

'CAUSE WE KNEW WHAT WE WERE GETTING INTO.

I MEAN, WE DID THAT BECAUSE THAT'S, THAT'S A ENTERTAINMENT LITTLE BIT OF A DISTRICT.

BUT THAT WAS THE DRAW TO US.

AND I, I, I LOVE WHAT'S HAPPENED OVER THERE.

I LOVE WHAT BBE IS LOOKING AT DOING.

UM, IT'S, WE HAVE FRIENDS OVER ALL THE TIME AND THAT'S THE NUMBER ONE COMMENT THAT WE GET IS LIKE, WHAT A VERY COOL NEIGHBORHOOD YOU LIVE IN.

WE CAN SEE WHY YOU GUYS CHOSE TO LIVE THERE VERSUS GILBERT.

SO I JUST WANT, WE'RE IN FULL SUPPORT OF, OF HAVING THAT MUSIC OPEN.

UM, ONCE AGAIN, THAT WAS THE NUMBER ONE DECISION MAKER FOR US MOVING THERE VERSUS MOVING ALL THE WAY UP TO, UH, SCOTTSDALE.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WE DO THINK WE'RE BETTER THAN GILBERT AND BETTER AND SCOTTSDALE.

I RIGHT.

AND, AND YOU'RE WAY CLOSER TO THE AIRPORT.

THAT'S ABSOLUTELY WITHOUT A DOUBT, UH, TO THE AUDIENCE.

UM, DOES ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY ITEM ON THE AGENDA THEY HAVE

[00:05:01]
