r � r land use changes were in the entire unincorporated part of the county. No specific changes were delineated. Getting back to the SR -60 corridor, Chairman Wheeler stated that he would be more comfortable with 8 upa instead of 10 upa, and would like to see that changed if there is no objection. Commissioner Eggert felt one area where she would struggle with that is when we get into affordable housing; that, and the fact that zoning really can control it.
