Puckett Questioned whether or not there is a concern with the pipeline. Director Answered that the pipeline has been abandoned, but easements still exist.

Puckett Noted that closing in honor of the victims of that dark day in history, 9-11-01, would be appropriate. Nielsen Stated that the Commission took the Heritage Village project very seriously; it was difficult, but important, to choose the right decision; it was also important that the community came out to express their opinions; the developer was trying to be accommodating in order to get his project approved, and it would be good to see something more accommodating back from him that the Commission could work with. Thanked staff for all the work on that project.
