that he felt a reasonable list of uses had been determined. Brown expressed concern that small community businesses would be affected by large businesses and not heard if other public hearings were not held. Scott stated that there is much more time than one night involved in a public hearing. He felt that specific areas had been designated and appropriate uses had been determined. He felt it must be made feasible for business/industry to locate in Orange County, and he felt that has been done with the Economic Development Districts. He felt endless regulations and restrictions were being imposed that would not encourage businesses to locate in Orange County. Brown responded that she did not see Scott's logic. Jobsis stated that she felt that there were definite differences of opinion that were not reconcilable. She felt that many of the Planning Board members felt that the package of guidelines would insure favorable business development. She noted that it may not be reasonable at this time to continue discussion, particularly since a recommendation will not be made until the regular Planning Board meeting on April 18. Waddell agreed with Jobsis and indicated all of Brown's concerns and questions will be considered at the April 18 meeting when a recommendation will be decided upon for the Board of Commissioners.

Burklin asked that Collins provide information at a later meeting on how the Planning Board is to interface with the Triangle Fixed Guideway Study. Collins responded that Mr. Ritchie will be presenting the study to the Commissioners in May and that may be an item that could be on the agenda for the joint meeting of the two Boards on May 31. Meeting adjourned 10:00 p.m.
