Mayor Johnson favors #4 which reads as follows: <br />"The fourith alternative involves the unilateral adoption by orange <br />County of an amendment to its Comprehensive Land Use Plan text and.'-` <br />map that would create an open space classification and apply that. <br />classification to the University Station property. In other words, <br />this action would anticipate the eventual result of the completion <br />of the cooperative planning process (see alternative number two <br />above) but could be accomplished much more quickly because the only <br />property that would be directly affected would be the University <br />Station property.
