• <br /> E.I. Ordinance, EDC Comments <br /> March 22, 1989 <br /> Page 2 <br /> ordinance is written as though most projects were of the <br /> nature of a massive TVA project, yet it covers everything <br /> over two acres or which grades 40,000 square feet or more. <br /> These are ridiculously low thresholds for "major projects". <br /> 5. This ordinance will have an entirely negative effect on <br /> economic development in the county, adding yet another layer <br /> of delay and hassle and uncertainly.

An ordinance with no <br /> clear purpose except delay, and which relies too often on <br /> value judgments, serves only to obstruct development, both <br /> good and bad. <br />
