Thus, a single map would contain <br />what is proposed in terms of land use and the <br />intended zoning. Pre - zoning is doing the <br />planning and land use designations up- front. <br />Guido DeMaere, EDC Chair, stated that he felt <br />this agreement provides a good foundation for <br />discussion and up -front work in providing <br />criteria for development in Orange County. He <br />indicated he felt the two Boards would be able to <br />work together toward this goal. <br />MOTION: Cantrell moved approval of the agreement and <br />authorization for the Chair to sign it on <br />behalf of the Planning Board. Seconded by <br />Waddell. <br />VOTE: Unanimous. <br />EDC Board then approved the agreement and <br />authorization for the Chair to sign on behalf of <br />the Economic Development Commission. <br />The Resolution of Agreement was signed by Betty <br />Eidenier, Planning Board Chair and Guido DeMaere, <br />EDC Board Chair. <br />b.
