OFFICIAL PLAN LINE FOR THREE FORKS AND SOUTH FORK LANE, Request for Recommendation of Approval of Negative Declaration and Official Plan Line: (Continued from April 11) Mr. Carlson reviewed the latest events on the above request, referring Commissioners to his May 4 memo and items of information requested as a result of the neighborhood meeting on May 1. He asked Commissioners to list any further items needing clarification so that all the information on the development of the Three Forks area might be presented at the same time. Commissioner vanTamelen suggested that rather than develop an "Official Plan Line" for the area, a better way would be to develop a Circulation Study for a Sub -area as was done for the Chaparral Way area. The difference between the two approaches to the areas being developed was discussed, and the consensus was that Commissioner vanTamelen's suggestion to develop a Circulation Study for the area of Three Forks Lane was the preferred method for outlining and delineating the area's development. V Chairman Stewart read into the record a letter from Wallace Stegner of 13456 South Fork Lane, and Commissioner Kuranoff responded to the request made by Mr. Stegner for Three Forks traffic to go out via the Via Feliz exit to Page Mill Road.
