northern lots to be included within the utility easement, referenced the zoning exhibit that
depicted land not as an HOA lot but as an easement, stated the plat is in general conformance

Public Hearing opened by Chair McClung.
Kathryn Edwards (Applicant): Gave presentation of the PD request. Described location of the

through restaurants allowed in the Planned Development standards, as well as requiring a

theme for the development, explained that since the pad sites will be sold separately, a unified
development facade plan would not be feasible.
