will be long remembered.
We
would also like to thank Victor Development Director Jane Luce, whose
timely and excellent guidance on
many aspects of this study, and specifically with
regards to the base assumptions for commercial and industrial use growth
factors,

an effective estimation of future needs. Jane’s
intimate knowledge and command of the Victor Land Use regulations have
served the Town and this study well.
