to very carefully consider the four crit�ria set up for justifying reT:.oval
of prouerty fron t�e Regulation before makin� recommenaati.on tc the
City Council. Removal of 20 acres from the Ir.terim "Z.onir�g Re}�ulation

Cor.ur.. Gatto felt the qu�stion at hand cuas the nature of the
development and its appropriateness to rhe cemmunity. The am�nd-
ment to this Use Permit changes it in visual impact from the free�aa�y
off ramp and ezitry into Vallco Park. The dry moat is a good j
approach. He would like to see a greater relief �n the lanai "
area.
Chairman Buthenu*_�� said tne master plan has been a.pproved and this
is just an expansion of it. He £eels the lanai helps tie the
projec* together.
