The requested amendment areas <br />remain relatively unchanged from those presented in 1994. The relocation of the e~tisting <br />asphalt plant was removed from the 1994 request. Under the terms of an agreement with the <br />Orange Water and Sewer Authority, the existing asphalt plant will be allowed to remain in <br />operation until May 2000 after which time its use will permanently cease. <br />The time since 1994 was to develop a discussion with residents. A mediated process created <br />various mitigation measures. In addition, a water supply study and an updated <br />Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was completed. Staff also verified various acreage <br />areas of land use and permit data to supply more specific information. <br />
