Mrs. Offutt stated that she would not go into any of the specifics of these particular points at this time, but would have further elaboration and examples of what they are speaking of when the Board goes through the proposed plan element by element at the public hearings later this week. Mrs. Offutt understood that once this process is adopted later this week, the next step would be the adoption of implemen- tation ordinances sometime after January, 1990. Robert Keating, Director of Community Development, explained that this week's public hearings are for the purpose of determining what will be transmitted to the State by the September 1st deadline. After comments are received from the State after a 90 -day review period, the County will have 60 days to address those comments. A final public hearing and a final decision on the whole Comp Plan probably will be held sometime in February, 1990, but the plan can be constantly changed until that time. Mrs. Offutt explained that her question stems from their concern that property owners may have density and other changes made to their land without them understanding the ramifications, and they wouldn't want that to happen as they have tried very hard to get the word out. Continuing with the review of the Future Land Use Element, Commissioner Eggert questioned Policy 1.15. She recalled that when Judge Vocelle was looking for areas to locate a secured substance abuse hospital, half -way house or facility, it came up that the only place we were going to find was in commercial. She noted that on the top of page 107, where it is talking about commercial nodes, it states that residential facilities may be permitted at the appropriate locations in commercial nodes. However, there is nothing in Policy 1.15 that gives her the feeling that it might be the policy under special situations that residential treatment centers would be allowed in commercial.
