oolor of buildings in the catmercial zones and to
require development in the Hillside Planned

zoning ordinance was generated by concern received due to the
inability to control colors. This americhnent would establish specific

to catmercial areas.

going to be done, a specific color pallet should be selected.

restraints were getting out of hand.

stages should be considered carefully before anything is done.
