Plan and land use plan clash over 10-acre lot size
The board debated adopting the master plan in parts versus as a whole. Hawkins argued the plan must be adopted in full to implement the land use tax, while others favored a five-acre minimum and delaying changes. The land use tax hearing drew about 50 residents with broad support and no objections, and officials noted the burden would be shared via a higher tax rate.
