e Mr. Holmer moved, seconded by Mr. Rutan, to initiate Metro Plan diagram amendments on the sites identified as Enid-Awbrey and Stewart Road, and on the portion of the north of Chad site that does not include the territory east of Old Coburg Road, with these amendments to be taken to the meeting of the Joint Elected Officials scheduled for July 25, 1990. Ms. Childs said that the July 25 meeting will include a public hearing on items that have already been through the Planning Commission process and have been forwarded to the joint elected officials.

Ms. Ehrman indicated that while she initially supported pursuing this action to add to the supply of available industrial land, after viewing these sites she supported delaying action or at least deleting a portion of the Chad Street site. e Mr. Boles said that the intent of the council was not met by the options now available, and he urged the council to vote against using these sites for short-term industrial land replacement. He concurred with Ms. Ehrman's position that action should be postponed until completion of the Industrial Lands Study. Mr. Bennett countered by saying that a significant amount of industrial land inventory is being lost as a result of the wetlands issue, and he encouraged the council to provide a variety of choices by supporting the motion.
