Chairperson Sullivan advised Ms. Utal that this is the PUC's <br />environmentally superior route for the transmission line through this area. Ms. Utal commented <br />that the Planning Commission should have the same concerns for the day care center as it has for <br />the school. <br /> <br />,- <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES <br /> <br />March 14,2001 <br /> <br />Page 8 <br />
