The

is
revised
to
read
as
follows.
As
shown
in
Table
3-1C

above,
the
CPP
includes
7,742,600
square
feet
of
new
non-residential
development.
No
residential
development
is
proposed
in
the
CPP.
The
CPP
includes
the
existing
44.2-acre
Recology
facility.
The
CPP
scenario
emphasizes
maximizing
the
quality
of
public
space
and
concentrating
development
near
transit.
Under
the
CPP
scenario,
almost
all
of
the
land
area
south
of
Visitacion
Creek
would
be
designated
for
passive
open
space
and
active
recreational
use
(see
Figure
).
None
of
the
colors

are
intended
to
indicate
private

The
use
of
hashed
colors
is
necessary
to
indicate
both
the
underlying
proposed
land
use
and
the
proposed
overlay
area.

Table
of
the

information
on

and
