Arlington Planning and Zoning Questions

We received an email with lots of questions.  Anyone know the answer?

Direction Change Regarding Air Quality

On October 6, 2010, City Council provided P&Z clear direction regarding the issue of Air Quality.

As a result, P&Z removed this issue from its list of topics to study and report out on in Phase II. P&Z wishes to note that it fully supports City Council’s proactive actions with respect to additional reporting requirements and testing.

My first question is ...so what was the "old direction"...look the other way?

Since they have been permitting for almost three years now, when was P&Z going to study air quality and advise council?

How can P&Z thank council for taking a proactive stance? We are mostly all drilled out now....damage is done.

Grand Prairie has a moratorium until their gas drilling ordinance is finished.

Our strategy is to get as many approved before the new ordinance is in place, however, the new ordinance isn't direct about steps to prevent poor air quality.
