Commissioner Wodtke pointed out that although <br />Commissioner Fletcher's rationale is that we are going to <br />review the Comprehensive Plan every five years, the <br />Transportation Element is intended to be a 20 -year plan. <br />There is one map from 1980 to 1990 and one from 1990 to the <br />year 2000, and if the proposed Thoroughfare Plan is supposed <br />to be a plan for the ultimate future, he had a problem with <br />the proposed deletions. <br />Commissioner Fletcher stated it was the feeling of the <br />committee that we should not encourage newcomers to the <br />county to plan around a map containing something we had no <br />economics for accomplishing. <br />Engineer Davis informed the Board that it was the <br />feeling of the technical complement of the Committee that <br />the bridges and the Boulevard were worthy candidates to be <br />included on the plan and that the map should be adopted as <br />presented. He believed the Motion to delete Indian River <br />Boulevard was made by Mayor Flood. <br />Commissioner Wodtke inquired about the right-of-way we <br />are requesting from developers, and asked if we are being <br />requested to vote on the Thoroughfare Plan today. <br />Commissioner Fletcher stated that they were not ready <br />to firm up on the 80/100' right-of-way requests, but he was <br />hoping to get the basic concept of the map approved in order <br />to give the Planning staff something to work on. <br />Discussion arose on the concept of Indian River <br />Boulevard, which was shown on the map from Wabasso Road to <br />Oslo Road, as a future through street. Chairman Scurlock <br />did not believed that grandiose plan will ever happen, but <br />he did believe there will be additional segments of Indian <br />River Boulevard, and that it would be reasonable to assume <br />there may be a need for the Boulevard to connect to the <br />hospital. <br />JAN 20190 <br />64 <br />
