The planning commission used the term "Recreation" for areas along canals to stop development and help with drainage. They also decided to use this "Recreation" land use designation for the Valero Energy buffer zone to lower residential, commercial, and industrial future development. The Comprehensive Plan adopted the definition of buffer zone as a landscaped area. And, Valero Energy planted a row of trees to comply.
For the Valero buffer zone:
Recreation land use adjacent to the Valero Refinery in order to lower
the amount of development – including residential, commercial and /or
industrial- that may occur there in the future.
