Urbanization Report e Councilor Holmer, referring to the minutes of the City Council meeting of January 25, 1984, stated that he had not clearly understood Ms. Wooten's comment about "concentric circle development charges" at that meeting. Having subsequently been advised that variations exist in the manner in which develop- ment charges are imposed, he noticed the words "strong emphasis on a review of concentric circle development charges II in a staff revision of the Urbanization Report. Mr. Holmer was not sure he would have accepted the statement without protest had he been aware of what Ms. Wooten was suggesting at that meeting. He wished this to be made a part of the record. E.
