The Committee was greatly impressed with the expertise and experience of all proponents on the project. The approval of federal funding for the e�ension of Appleway will permit the results of the study to be fully incorporated within the Appleway project.. IX. COMMISSION BUSINESS A. NEW BUSINESS: No new business B. OLD BUSINESS: Discussion: Plastic Injection Molding — Director Sukup reviewed the research into the plastic injection molding processes. There are three kinds of processes, thermoplastic — pellets that get melted that can be re- melted, thermoset — which can not be remolded, and solvent molding — which requires the usage of heavy solvents. The subject of the Planning Commission's original subject is the thermoplastic, the melting of pellets which we would like to allow in a B-2 B-3 zone. The thermoset and solvent molding should still be kept to an industrial zone. X. FOR THE GOOD OF THE ORDER The package that the Planning Commissioners received this evening is from the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy. These packages, Citizen Planners Resource Kits, were offered free to Planning Commissions around the country. XI.
