~ The question was raised about scrutiny of M-I an M-III ones (Glen Cove). McMahan
noted the goal is to implement the intent to the direc 1 of the Growth Management
Steering Committee regarding a UGA. He said the Commission could make sure the
Staff hasn't made some mistakes and has followed through in those areas, but he also
suggested the Commission might leave that to Council.
.. It was proposed to leave M-I and M-III areas to Staff for now and readdress them when
there is actually land in the City that is zoned that way. A caveat was added that a
paragraph to that effect be included in the conveyance to the City Council. It was noted
that for the same reason the matter was not considered in the joint Land Use meeting,
and if it keeps going there will be no record that it has been considered.
Co.nsensus: Do no.t co.nsider M-I and M-Ill Zo.nes at this time.
