I know from <br />my land development experience that the Applicant already has these plans in hand once they are ready to sit down <br />with the County /City so there wouldn't be any additional cost to them. <br />Also, I have found that if you allow outside participation (i.e. 'stakeholders') you get more buy -in than if you just show <br />up at these meetings and show your plan for the first time. <br />Thanks for the opportunity to comment. <br />Jeff Scouten <br />Environmental Enforcement Supervisor <br />Orange County Solid Waste Management <br />P.O.
