Upon receiving their approval, the developer must make the necessary improvements or file a performance bond for them. In response to Councilman Lea's questions, George Schuler answered that the zoning in this area would pre- clude the establishment of a junk yard in the area, but would allow the owner's intended use of heavy equipment storage. George also replied that in the two years that the preliminary approval is good for, the developer must establish a fire flow line, then the roadways, and the utilities. Again, he emphasized that this preliminary approval would simply allow the developer to begin working with the Public Works Department on the plans.
