Will impact reports be required to combine these two elements or should they be studied <br /> separately?" <br /> Town Planner response:At this point it is obvious that the two are tied together. Transportation is � { <br /> the largest factor in energy use which we can impact through the LCP or Town regulations. !~'t'' <br /> Although it is premature to discuss "impact reports" I suspect that they would best be done <br /> separately if we were to require energy impact reports for development projects. �►:,`I''R "' <br /> Would the LPC like to consider splitting energy off from Transportation as a stand-alone element? f{ <br /> It is a separate item in the RPP. Such a split would involve re-doing these goals and objectives . <br /> (not a big project- only goal 6 and objectives H and M relate specifically to energy) and writing a <br /> I Y 9 1 P Y 9Y) 9 <br /> separate energy plan and report. It would simplify our transportation plan element but would ;. .a. <br /> involve more time. For the latter reason, I would put it off until after the rest of the plan is <br /> completed next spring, much as we've done with the optional Health and Human Services <br /> element. 1 <br /> 4/16/96 <br /> r a,ll, <br /> 4r <br />
