Planning and Zoning Con, lesion Minutes June 19~ 1991 Page 6 considered in a small area planning study and the entire zoning of this a~ea will be updated through petitions of this kind, or through the update of our zoning that we will be doing every 5 years, or corrective rezonings as they become necessary. Mr. Hartgen stated as a characteristic, the opportunities that this parcel haS, it is true that the zoning requirements do not require that you come before the Board with a specific proposal.
