This non-project action would not directly increase the need for public services. The growth and <br /> development planned for in the Comprehensive Plan will require additional public services <br /> including water and sewer services, waste management,law enforcement and frre protection, <br /> additional school services and facilities, telecommunications,health care,court services,and <br /> others.
