additions shown in under line)
The first paragraph of Land Use Element subsection A (page II-1 ) is
proposed to be amended as follows:
PLANNING OBJECTIVES
The basic objectives of this Plan are to enhance the "magic" of the area
through careful planning and sensitive design for the location and
development of a 27-hole championship golf course and clubhouse;,a hotel
with no more than 240 rooms within the Golf Course Envelope; and a
community of high quality, detached, single-family homesites on large
parcels of land located throughout the site.

proposed to be amended as follows:

an envelope of approximately 300 acres of land on one lot; surrounding the
golf course are 156 large single-family estate lots and a hotel with no more
than 240 rooms within the Golf Course Envelope. The concept is to have
the majority of the homesites front on the golf course or have views over the
golf course. Views overlooking the golf course from the adjacent existing
single-family residential homes will be enhanced.

identified on the Development Concept Plan (see Exhibit 2), will be
developed a 27-hole championship golf course, clubhouse, and driving
range, and a hotel with no more than 240 rooms within the Golf Course
Envelope; additionally there will be two major areas of preservation, i.e., the
riparian and certain hillside areas.
A new subsection H is added at the end of the Land Use Element as follows:
