He also stated that policy has been that only the attorney's office makes
practical policy changes to development: agreements. Mr. Robinette told the
committee that in the future the attorney would be writing draft ordinances
to incorporate those items. that were deemed necessary by the Staff and Com-
mittee. This would provide language that .the attorney was comfortable with
and reduce problems of misunderstanding the ordinances.
