that I hold compared to what has been presented here. The first concern I see is that <br /> (1) there is no real provision in the business development, in the plan, for commercial <br /> development in the bypass area. I think that's naive to believe that there won't be <br /> legitimate pressure and that at some point in the future, um, it's likely that there will be <br /> development. The fact that it's, ah,unanticipated for or ignored in this Plan is, in my <br /> mind, an impossible thing not to, not to put into play. Um, I think, ah, I think if you <br /> look at different constituencies I'd say that that this plan in a lot of ways lacks the ideal <br /> situation for each of a specific audience and I don't want to go into a whole bunch of <br /> details about that, but I, ah,things that are noticeable to me are um, (2) our park plan <br /> doesn't really provide for a functional park. Okay? We are short of ball fields and short <br /> of all sorts of stuff and we're just essentially, by not addressing that aspect, are relying on <br /> the school to address all those needs for us, so we can just go to the school and have ball <br /> parks. Well, maybe that's not enough. <br /> Um,there's a lot of redundancy in the document; same, (3) same action items <br /> are in multiple different locations of it. There is a thread of, a core belief I have is that <br /> �.

By, I mean, I can point out a few examples in <br /> here how you design roads, where you put your parking, how you do this. <br /> The other thing I think is this document almost strikes me as a little <br /> schizophrenic. On the one hand (5)we want a rural character of our town and on the <br /> other hand we are putting a 4-land highway through the middle of all the rural area. And <br /> then when we adopt conservation designs we are forcing people that want like a a nice <br /> house in the middle of a large yard is which is kind of a rural almost,maybe you'd say its <br /> suburban, Chuck, but I would say it's more rural character cuz I get to do stuff but we are <br /> forcing everybody to have my house right concentrated within,you know, a conservation <br /> `` 3 <br />
