9.B.2. PUBLIC DISCUSSION ITEM – ADRIENE CUFFE AND DIAN <br />GEORGE – ROAD WIDENING PROJECTS <br />rd <br />Adriene Cuffe <br />, 695 43 Avenue, said she was a part of an informational meeting <br />with Commissioner Lowther and County Administrator Joseph Baird whereby they spoke with a <br />rd <br />State Department of Community Affairs representative on how they could improve 43 Avenue <br />Ms Cuffe <br />and keep the quality of life. Based on the information obtained asked to have LOS-D <br />changed to LOS-F and then complete an application to change the Comp Plan during the July <br />amendment submittal window. Lowering the LOS means concurrency requirements would not <br />rdthrd <br />mandate that 43 Avenue or 27 Avenue be widened. She understood that residents on 43 <br />Avenue would have to live with some inconveniences such as future congestion as more <br />rd <br />developments are built out. She now believes that they have an alternative to 5-laning 43 Avenue <br />and she thanked staff for their assistance. <br /> <br />th <br />Dian George <br />, 1515 27 Avenue, spoke of road widening projects saying that we <br />thth <br />can route traffic outside the grid and mentioned 66 Avenue and 58 Avenue. She said most <br />metropolitan areas route traffic around the residential areas and she asked the Board to save our <br />neighborhoods. <br /> <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lowther to <br />rd <br />direct staff to change 43 Avenue to LOS-F, 3-laning <br />from SR-60 to Oslo road, fix the intersection at <br />th <br />SR-60, 5-lane north to 26 Street and change the <br />Comp Plan. There was no second. <br /> <br />Chairman Ginn wanted to get more information from staff. LOS-F is beyond E and <br />creates gridlock. <br />JULY 13, 2004 <br />12 <br /> <br />
