“All right, but it wasn't because it was redlined, meaning, for those of you who may not know, I'm sure all of you in here know what redlined is, but if there is a change made, then you can see what the change made was because of the color differentiation, et cetera. So it wasn't like we made a change and then you had to reread the whole chapter to see what the change was. We were indicating what those changes were. Again, I thank you for the water conservation.

Proposed data center expansions and zoning policies that could get data center expansions. And anything about data centers, not, is not in the comprehensive plan because it's an industry use under a particular zoning category. Correct.

“All right, so I'll run through these I want to recommend that we take A2 out so that we do not include A2 zoning in the comp plan at all.
