314 prepare a recommendation on the amendment at its December 21, ].987 meeting. The Board of Commissioners will consider the proposal for decision on January 4, 1988. A detailed summary and analysis, included in the agenda -~.. materials, is an attachment to these minutes in the permanent agenda file. Planning Board member Peter Kramer stated that, the Planning Bvard expressed the concern that the population - projections for Cedar Grove were too low considering the impact the Board felt would occur with the completion of I-40. Carl Walters, resident of Cedar Grove Township, stated that he would prefer to see land in his immediate area remain agri- cultural. He noted, however, that he felt the growth pro- jection of 1.25 is too low and his expectations are that the completion of I-40 will bring considerable growth to Cedar Grove. He continued expressing the concern that the pro- tection of water quality is not for the Cedar Grove area but for surrounding areas and that protection should be aimed at the individual's investment in house and lands. He stated that he felt the updating of the Land Use Plan alone was ridiculous and the only real help for the landowner would be the zoning of Cedar Grove Township. He urged the Board of Commissioners to follow the Update of the Land Use Plan with zoning. Oscar Compton, resident of Cedar Grove Township, began by stating that he is very much opposed to zoning. He indicated that there is no land available for sale in Cedar Grove Township and he does not foresee there being any land for sale. He noted that he felt that the population projections ;, by the Planning Staff of 1.25 would more likely be just 1/2~ of 1~ rather than higher as Mr. Walters indicated. Hei continued that the residents of Cedar Grove Township do not -' anticipate any growth during the next twenty year period. He urged the Board of Commissioners not to consider zoning for Cedar Grove Township until such time as the majority of the residents had a desire for zoning. Motion was made by Commissioner Carey, seconded by Commissioner Hartwell, that the public hearing be closed and the Update of the Land Use Plan for Cedar Grove Township be referred to the Planning Board for recommendation to the Board of Commissioners on January 4, 1988. VOTE: Unanimous. 4. ZONING ATLAS AMENDMENTS a. PD-2-87 Chandler Concrete The presentation was made by Marvin Collins.
