(4) ENACT A SITE PLAN ORDINANCE REQUIRING COMMISSION REVIEW OF ALL PLANS FOR OVER ZOO UNITS AND ALL SHOPPING CENTERS AND PUT DRI TYPE REQUIREMENTS IN THAT ORDINANCE. (5) AN ORDINANCE FOR MULTI -FAMILY AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME DENSITY OF SINGLE FAMILY. CHAIRMAN LYONS CONTINUED THAT IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE NORTH BEACH, HE WOULD LIKE TO REZONE THAT AREA TO WHAT IT CALLS FOR IN THE MASTER PLAN. HE COMMENTED THAT THE AREA WE HAVE BEEN DOING ALL THE TALKING ABOUT BETWEEN WABASSO ROAD AND JOHN'S ISLAND SHOWS ON THE MASTER PLAN AS MEDIUM DENSITY, EXCEPT THE AREA ALONG THE RIVER WHICH SHOWS LOW DENSITY, AND HE FELT WE SHOULD REZONE THAT PROPERTY RIGHT NOW AS IT IS SHOWN ON THE MASTER PLAN AND AT LEAST BE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WE HAVE SAID FOR FIVE YEARS. COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK ASKED IF HE WAS PROPOSING THESE FIVE ELEMENTS AS A TEMPORARY MEASURE. CHAIRMAN LYONS STATED THAT HE WAS SO THAT,AT LEAST,WE HAVE A'HOLDING PATTERN UNTIL WE HAVE ADOPTED THE NEW MASTER PLAN. HE ASKED IF THE COMMISSION WAS INTERESTED IN TRYING TO GET SOME KIND OF AN INTERIM HOLDING PATTERN OR NOT. COMMISSIONER FLETCHER STATED THAT HE WAS. COMMISSIONER BIRD POINTED OUT THAT WE HAVE ASKED FOR A STUDY OF HOW THE BARRIER ISLAND SHOULD BE DEVELOPED AND REZONED, AND BY SUCH ACTION, HE FELT WE WOULD BE OVERSTEPPING THAT. CHAIRMAN LYONS REITERATED THAT FIVE YEARS AGO WE ADOPTED A MASTER PLAN, AND WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING ABOUT, AND�AT LEAST,WE WOULD BE REACHING A POSITION WHERE IT IS LIKE WE OFFICIALLY SAID IT SHOULD BE. HE BELIEVED THIS IS MORE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT THE PUBLIC IS SAYING BECAUSE HE DID NOT BELIEVE THEY WANT HIGH DENSITY IN THE NORTH BARRIER ISLAND AREA. COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK NOTED THAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE APPROPRIATE PUBLIC HEARINGS, AND THAT WE WOULD, IN EFFECT, HAVE A REZONING THAT WOULD STRETCH OUT UNTIL THE BARRIER ISLAND STUDY IS IN.
