Mr. Fox stated that he would be happy to talk about an easement and happy to work to see if they can do some sort of easement. However, it will have to wait until after they have a use for the property and understand what the site plan would be. Because of this offer to work toward an easement, the ECCD does not plan to pursue any additional objections to the zoning change. The ECCD also understands that a conservation easement on a portion of the property can exist if it is zoned as C-3.
