recommendation" on the Greenbriar Development Agreement to the City
Council.
Commissioner Abshire stated that he regretted that the Planning
Commission did not make a specific recommendation to the City
Council.

the Commission forwarded specific comments for the Council to
consider in its discussions.

regarding the process used by the Commission when housing colors,
materials, etc. are selected.
