advertised,
a Earl Nelson, environmental review director, set out he backgr�iund°
OE the xegative declaration. The operation would not constitute a significant
efiiect on the environsnento If w""'e project bad corse to the department lbefore
the use was undertaken the project wotild have had _to be analyser'

what could be adverse from the change. There is no doubt that an ',ETR
would have been required. "'The changes have occurred. The impacts are }
relatively minor because it is a'stall ope"atioa. Thig, could be pi:ecedent:
Aetting,as'beginn ng of an industrial use in a previously undeveloped, t
agricultural area. Even denial of the project would not bring back the I
property to the natural envyrontent. A negative declaration was xzcommended,

Supervisor: Richter asked if Mr., Nelson was saying that in
off ect,,that this project for whatever reasons was put in place without C�
any review and thereZo.re since it is there you are saying th'�ere will be
no adverse effects. itatevot adverse impacts that might hav(\; been, if
any, have been created and are there. He asked if someone else were
capable of putting in a much larger operation that was of an industrial
type of'land use would he take the same position.
Mr, Nelson stated that, the evaluation he pp7ied would be the
same as for any project. He looks at the^'existing at)plication and how
it would affect the environment, if the problems created could be restsored
by abatement he might suggest this poss blity. There are situations
involving grading and "tree removal where if the project comes in'there
is no control. This 418 a ilta,jOr' loop hole in the envzroTlmental process,
Bettye Blair, interim planning director, stated that the Bnard
had received staff findings dated May 15, 1578. ThA Board should consider
the location of the site to available services. They should also consider
the environmental ,impacts the project will have on the ;surrounding area
in the future. The amend.��tywas requested to accommodate establ:i.shed
industrial use. 'This is an isoliTad instance. If in face, 2,s pointed
out in the environmental determinations the development happj�ns and then
there is a backi�.iy I.ito'.and amending policy and goals to acctmodate
