there is more than one significant builder and yet this project is being restrained
in its development° He added, that he was curious to know if the City is going
to continue down this road to the extent of requesting that the rest of that
property be forbidden for development; and, in fact, request that they take
those houses down that are already on the property innnediately off the end of
the runway, which are in a fundamentally nciser p~sition, in the flight pattern.
