Commissioner Wodtke <br />explained that he is not trying to reflect that it has to be <br />commercial, but we do have a Comprehensive Plan, and if we <br />need to change it, we should. <br />Chairman Scurlock continued to express concern about <br />vesting in a site plan and asked if there is any vehicle by <br />which we can protect ourselves so that we eliminate the <br />possibility of the applicant presenting a site plan real <br />quick and getting vested. <br />Attorney Brandenburg stated that he was not aware of <br />any.
