What we are faced with is that the <br />state law happens to provide them with a loophole, and the <br />attempt here is to make them comply with the county ordinance. <br />The Planning Department is trying to get the message out to <br />everyone that if they are going to develop land, they have to <br />comply with the Planning requirements, and if we catch them <br />afterwards, they are going to have to go through the trouble and <br />27 <br />NOV 14 1984 Bou 864 <br />
