X99® A BOOK Director Keating advised that one of the areas where we looked good in the plan was that we are looking at substantially increasing the sanitary sewer service area, and we are showing that we are -pulling a lot of package plants out of use. DISCUSSION REGARDING INCLUDING INDIAN RIVER MALL IN THE PLAN Director'Keating felt staff now has all the direction they need but for one issue, and this is a logistical issue. He explained that right before the Comprehensive Plan was submitted, staff was propasing that the Indian River Mall be put in the plan, but the Commission directed we take it out of the plan and have the applicant go through the Comprehensive Plan amendment process. We have had the first Comprehensive Plan amendment hearing and the rezoning hearing, and he just wanted to find out if the Board's policy as to having them go through that Comprehensive Plan process is still in effect. Director Keating explained that the rules either were changed, or we did not realize what they were when all this occurred. What happens is that once your new plan is due, and for us that was September 1, 1989, the State considers that from now on that is going to be the plan you abide by, and they will no longer accept any amendments to your old plan. This puts you in a limbo period from the time you submit your draft until you adopt your new plan, which will be February 13th. If you want to change the new plan, you do it at your tinal adoption hearing. For the Mall to go through separately, you would be adding 6 months to the process. That is one alternative, and that is the way we are proceeding now. The other alternative is to throw it in at the final adoption hearing. The advantage to that is it gets things done sooner. The disadvantage is that DCA has not reviewed the Mall and we did not get any ORC comments on that. Director Keating felt we have a better chance of getting our plan found in compliance if we proceed as we are proceeding now
