Mr. Hill closed the regular meeting and opened the public hearing.
Mr. Walton I would like to apologize to Mike Green for the way the public hearing
notices were mailed out.
Mike Green accepted Mr. Walton's apology. For the rezoning. Would like to see an RR -
Rural Residential overlay on the industrial land for protection in the future.
John Bealey in favor of the rezoning and support Mike's proposal for the RR -Rural
Residential overlay. Still working on phase II of the plan.
Mike Brechan not opposed to the rezoning. Think the RR -Rural Residential overlay is
premature at this point. Presently there is a buffer zone around the industrial area
there should be something done to conserve the Russian River.

Mrs. Crowe the only thing we are considering tonight is the rezoning.
Mr. Walton there is a buffer zone around Brechan's large gravel site.
Discussion between the Commission members on a buffer area.
Mrs. Crowe the condition of the river should be looked into, what can we do about it?
Mr. Walton
the new
conservation zone would cover this area.
Discussion
between
the Commission members and Mr. Walton on courses of action that could
be taken to
protect
the river.
Mrs. Crowe
a person
would need to petition the State then?
Mr. Walton correct.
