along US Hwy 441.

   In this plan, areas with the highest
conservation priority are set-aside for the
community to use as open space, with
adequate buffers put in place near the most
vulnerable areas. The rail-to-trail is limited
to the old rail bed with connections at each
block for access into the neighborhoods and
to Orange Lake.

   The civic elements are relocated within
the commercial area along US Hwy 441 in
order to share the benefits from the street
improvements. The school would stay in the
current location, expanding onto some
adjacent parcels to acquire the land needed
for the educational activities.
