Minutes Planning Commissio. September 11, 1985 3-year capital improvement budget, when Del Valle Parkway is extended eastward to Main Street, staff feels it is likely that this project will go forward in importance. Commissioner Innes asked about staff's recommendation with regard to 66' wide street. Mr. Swift stated that staff felt that with Valley Avenue extended 66' should handle the traffic on Stanley Boulevard. Commissioner Michelotti then discussed Plan "A" with a double left-turn lane. The road is two lane now and reaching capacity and if a High Density land use designation were adopted it might be more difficult to get the traffic off of the street without stacking up traffic. Chairman Wilson expressed concern with conditions imposed in the proposed General Plan amendment because some of the lots are not 120'. He would prefer to see the conditions imposed on an application-by-application basis. Commissioner Innes favored overall planning. Commissioner Lindsey agreed with Commissioner Innes that the conditions should be imposed so that developers know what is expected. Chairman Wilson didn't feel it makes any sense to condition developments upon the completion of Del Valle Parkway or Valley Avenue because they may not be completed for up to five years. If the time is not ripe for development, no change should be made. Commissioner Lindsey indicated he favors conditions 2 through 8. He doesn't like number 1 because it has not been determined when Del Valle Parkway will be completed. Commissioner Hoyt felt strongly that Condition No. 1 should be left intact. Commissioner Innes wanted to make sure traffic is taken off of Stanley Boulevard as quickly as possible. He felt 'either or" should be included concerning Del Valle Parkway or Valley Avenue extension. Commissioner Michelotti indicated she was sorry that citizens who live in the area were not on the Residential Review Committee. In overall planning the City does need High Density Residential but would have liked the citizens of the area to have had input. She felt the Del Valle Parkway was needed and once extended to Main Street would probably be extended to First. She could agree to "either/or" or another interim solution. Chairman Wilson and Commissioner Inner felt that Condition No. 1 should be eliminated but that Condition No. 2 should remain. Commissioner Lindsey supported staff's recommendation concerning Alternate Plan "A". A motion was made by Commissioner Lindsey, seconded by Commissioner Wilson that the Negative Declaration prepared for Case GP-85-6, GP-85-3 and PUD-85-7 be recommended for approval - 6 - ., ~
