<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">(Allow me to be circumspect about particulars) Likely sensing disapproval from neighbors and possibly from PB regarding the size of a proposed project and its impact with a residential district, the applicant announced at the opening of the SP Hearing that the proposal was now for a project only half as large as described in the SP application (and accompanying plans). The applicant pointed out which physical locations in the project would not be pursued. My question is this: should PB require the application be withdrawn and a new application (with new maps and details) be required? And if so, then presumably a new Hearing etc? I know a larger project would require this. But some are of the opinion that approval of the original application could be given and conditions (re size, general location etc) simply put on the approval to limit its size and impact. I am inclined to think reapplication versus conditions is the fairest and responsible option (and more enforceable for future officials), but appreciate any others opinions, with references if possible. </span>
