<br />2. TRAFFICIMPACTCONSULTANT–FINALREPORT <br /> <br /> <br />Assistant Public Works Director Chris Mora presented an update of the Traffic <br />Impact Consultant’s Report (copy on file in the office of the Clerk to the Board). He introduced <br />Joe McMahon, Registered Professional Engineer of McMahon & Associates, who prepared the <br />Report. Through a PowerPoint presentation he reviewed the Consultant’s recommendations as <br />presented in his memorandum of September 5, 2006 and asked the Board to accept staff’s <br />recommendation (Alternative 1) authorizing staff to initiate amendments to the applicable Land <br />Development Regulations. Mr. Mora also recapped and discussed the seven (7) <br />Recommendations (Nos. 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 18, 20 and 21) that the Planning & Zoning Commission <br />(P&Z) did not agree with and asked the Board to approve them. <br /> <br />Donna Keys, Chairperson of the Planning & Zoning Commission, <br /> answered <br />questions from the Board regarding opposition to the aforementioned recommendations. <br /> <br />Lengthy discussion ensued on whether to count all trips and/or vested trips, adding <br />‘ghost’ trips, and assignment of trips. <br /> <br />Consultant Joe McMahon <br /> gave reasons for his recommendations. <br />County Administrator Baird commented that if they decided to go with P&Z <br />recommendations it could not be done overnight. Discussion continued on how to count trips that <br />have been approved without crashing the system, and definition of a ‘ghost’ trip. Discussion also <br />centered on long-range transportation plan, road improvements and future projections. <br /> <br />September 12, 2006 <br />25 <br /> <br />
