transfer residential density from the wetlands to the uplands, but there is no ability to transfer any commercial intensity. No commercial square footage can be transferred from the wetlands to the uplands. Mr. McQueen concluded his arguments and noted that some of his clients are here today if the Board has any questions. Commissioner Scurlock understood then that the purpose of getting more property into the node is that there may be some upland in the node, even if it is a small amount. Commissioner Bird felt that if we were establishing the node boundaries today, we probably would look at the Boulevard as being the normal eastern boundary and not leave any wedges of property in between. There being no others who wished to be heard, the Chairman closed the Public Hearing. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by Commissioner Bird, that the Board adopt Ordinance 92-17, redesignating ±20 acres from L-1 to Hospital/ Commercial Node by enlarging the Hospital/Commercial Node from ±230 acres to ±250 acres; and adopt Ordinance 92-18, rezoning from RS -3 and RM -3 to MED the property generally located on the 600 block of 37th Street. Under discussion, Commissioner Scurlock commented that if we had the results of the environmental survey, we would know exactly what we are dealing with today. Chairman Eggert agreed, but felt the construction of the Boulevard puts this into a unique situation. Commissioner Bowman noted that the policies of the Comp Plan are not subordinate to zoning and that the C-2 designation for wetlands is primary regardless of zoning. Further, the C-2 area must be delineated prior to site development and nothing can be changed prior to site development. Commissioner Scurlock felt that is a good reason to get the survey done as soon as possible. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion was voted on and carried unanimously. 57 E�UOK.
