Last week he / Ad inspected Shenandoah III and this area has a gravel roadway. Mr. Prokop wondered if there is special consideration given to large developers that different from individuals. Mr. Heath noted that there will be questions from the Board members on the presentation of the Planner and the Attorney, but not from the audience.
