78 DRAFT PLANNING BOARD MINUTES 4/18/94 AGENDA ITEM #11. MATTERS SCHEDULED FOR PUBLIC HEARING (5/23/94) a. Proposed Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and Subdivision Regulations Text Amendments - Economic Districts Presentation by Marvin Collins. This item is to consider proposed amendments to the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and Subdivision Regulations as related to the Economic Development Districts. When the Board of Commissioners approved the Economic Development District proposals on March 2, changes or amendments to the Economic Development Districts proposals were discussed and continued to its March 15 meeting. The discussion focused on two major policy questions: 1. Location of Commercial, Commercial-Industrial, Economic Development, and similar non-residential activity nodes; and 2. Board of Commissioners review of economic development proposals. Proposed changes and questions to address are identified in the March 15 Commissioners' agenda abstract (a copy is an attachment to these minutes on pages ) . The Board of Commissioners approved the recommendation that the proposals be referred to the Planning Board for review with the understanding that: 1. The Planning Board's recommendation to the Commissioners will be made in time for the amendments to be heard at the May 23 quarterly public hearing; and 2. The Planning Board will consider a variety of approval options; i.e. , Staff, Planning Board, and Commissioners. At its March 21, 1994 meeting, the Planning Board referred proposed amendments to the adopted Economic Development Districts to the Ordinance Review Committee with instructions to provide a recommendation to the Planning Board by its April 18 meeting. The proposals are those suggested by Commissioners Gordon and Insko, and included in the Commissioners' March 15 agenda abstract.
