She stated the Committee recommends Alternative 4 which would require a rezone of the property from CP to CP -PMUD to require any development to be processed via PMUD requirements to assure Planning Commission and City Council review and approval. This will insure flexibility /opportunity to impose conditions pursuant to the environmental review, Comprehensive Plan, and Zoning Code. Councilman Harris asked if the water pond would be protected?
