If one newly acquired areas are not approved <br />( by E7 Paso County for mining, many aspects of the proposed amendment to •;,~ <br />' the mining and reclamation. plan could not be ar`,ieved. <br />¢' ~ :< <br /> <br />3) The character of <br />e area certainly could change considering the time frame of mining operations <br />- and the location of the property with respect to major roadways. The 1990 Land <br />Use Plan (adopted in 1970} is the applicable land use element of the locally <br />adopted Master Plan for the area. It depicts residential uses on the land east of <br />~. Academy Boulevard, with open space and recreational uses fpllpwing the <br />Fountain Mutual Irrigation Ditch and Little Johnson Reservoir.
