Planning Manager Challacombe read from the July 29th Minutes, which stated that staff had not recommended an increase in the node, but merely that the acreage limitations on industrial and commercial be removed; the size of the node to remain at 230 acres. Commissioner Wodtke noted that Attachment D, Future Land Uses, shows heavy commercial, industrial warehouses, etc., and he believed it covers more than 230 acres.
