Refine language to provide clarifications in policy intent and implementation. More specifically the recommendations changed "shall" to "should" in Policy 8 and Policy 22 to provide clarity on appropriate use of mandates. Policy 8: In new, previously zoned Residential subdivisions in coastal areas, subdivisions shall should be encouraged to develop as Cluster Plan Developments (C.P.D. pursuant to HCC Section 25-6-20, in order to achieve CDP obectives in relation to preserving open space, recreational areas, or r- stp ,Ie Q„ra' SubdiViSieRS. scenic viewsheds.
