Council accepted the request and directed staff to begin discussions with the County as to an appropriate scope of activities for the study, as well as estimates of the cost for participating. In reviewing this request, it is suggested that two appropriate alternatives may be available to the County. The first would be based on a comprehensive approach to the development of the barrier island. The approach would be comparable to the Local Government Comprehensive Plan concept. This effort would review all issues that relate to future development on a barrier island and provide recommendations and policies that the County could consider and adopt to manage development in this area. The enclosed graphic represents this alternative and is intended to identify the potential data needs, possible issues and opportunities to be addressed, and a listing of resource agencies and interest groups that should be involved in such an effort. The second approach would relate more to the.identification of a reasonable "carrying capacity" potential for future development on the barrier island. This approach would be substantially more limited in its scope but Would focus on key functional areas and provide basic assumptions that could then guide the development of the County's comprehensive plan for the island.
