Included in the <br />review process should be the following items. <br />1) The major problems associated with development <br />including physical deterioration, land use changes <br />and economic and social conditions which have prompted <br />the amendment proposal. <br />2) The condition of the future land use element of the <br />Comprehensive Plan at the date of plan adoption and <br />plan revision. <br />3) A comparison of the plan element's originally stated <br />objective and the results at the date of revision. <br />4) The extent to which unanticipated or unforseen <br />problems have affected the County's land use pattern <br />and future land use needs between the time of plan <br />adoption and plan revision. <br />-11- <br />
