Planning Director Mike Holzmiller stated that there are three differences between the two alternatives. They include; 1) the length of time and effort to complete the study, with the larger study taking 19 to 23 months and the smaller one six months; 2) the number of issues involved; the number of concerns and issues in the areas would have to be addressed and this would increase significantly if that included the entire Agua Hedionda Coastal Plan; and 3) the cost.
