And there is an EDH-1 also, but we’re not proposing any changes to that district. 34 35 Perdita Holtz continued presentation. 36 37 Lydia Wegman: Is there any downside, as far as not requiring a Class A SUP, for people who live near it? 38 39 Perdita Holtz: Well there could be, it depends on a person’s point-of-view. As you know the Special Use Permit 40 (SUP) process is pretty involved and when people find out that they need to hire an attorney to represent them they 41 often have a problem with that. 42 43 Craig Benedict: Perdita, is the EDH-1, which we’re not suggesting to change, closer to the residential areas now? 44 45 Perdita Holtz: I don’t think that provision is in EDH-1 but I’m not 100% sure. 46 47 Paul Guthrie: The area that we’re talking about borders the interstate, at least South side, and one of the things that 48 highways with that kind of traffic and in that type of terrain have a tendency to do is have lower air quality. Is there 49 any consideration in any of this in the permitting process check through that what proposes to be built there will not 50 aggravate the air quality standards in the area surrounding? 51 52 Perdita Holtz: There are performance standards in Article 6 of the UDO and air quality standards are one of the 53 performance standards that projects have to meet. So they would still have to meet those. 54 55 Attachment 6 Excerpt of Notes 254
