ALTERNATIVE LAND USE PLANS AND DESIGN GUIDELINES - VI VI LAND USE ALTERNATIVES Asilomar Hotel and Conference Grounds features lodging and amenities in a similar setting CHAPTER VI Land Use Alternatives and Design Guidelines The process has involved the creation of three viable alternatives that could accomplish the goals outlined in Chapter IV Purpose of the Plan. The key County objective is to identify a future use that can be supported by the County, the community, and the Coastal Commission, and would stimulate reinvestment in and redevelopment of the site. The three land use Alternatives outlined below were developed based on feedback received from meetings with stakeholders, assessing the site s constraints and opportunities, receiving input from the community, and assessing the economic viability of different uses for the site. It is important to note that the Alternatives are concept level alternatives and the exact locations of a land use on one Alternative could be modified to reflect another Alternative. The quantity and mix of land uses of the current Alternatives have been tested for economic viability. a.
