Iii1ler reported that the Commission was desirous of the "guidelines" point of view; zoaing district was less acceptable than the PUD spproach; prefers PUD in residential zoning (would require the rezoning of Bethel College); did not determine where guidelines would be (Ordi- nance or Compreheusive Plan); coneideredthe special district an acceptable alternate, but prefers PUD app~oach. .
