is measured from on the specific project site.
In response to Committee Member questions regarding process without an applicant
representative present, Planning Manager Downing outlined the actions the Committee
could take on the item.
It was the consensus of the Committee to continue the item to a future meeting to allow
additional information to be provided by the applicant representative, including a straight

evaluate plant location and screening, methods to break up structure massing, and the
