Kessler Department of Community Affairs Division of Local Resource Management `�:!N r�A SIS.T Bureau of Local Government Assistance CC'lc��Y r551STANC 2571 Executive Center Circle, East Tallahassee, FL 32301 RE: Indian River County Comprehensive Plan Dear Mr. Kessler: The Indian River Community Development Department is to be commended for developing a really comprehensive plan. Orice the draft is published in -final form it should be one of the better ones in the State. Other than a few editorial discrepancies such as 3 different table 1's on pages 7, 57 and 79, we have only 3 comments of substance on the transportation element: EM:sc On page 71, policy statement 4 - we feel that "appropriate studies" should be undertaken as soon as possible instead of when the problem arises. On page 74, Policy Statement 3 - A class 1 bike- way may or may not be the best facility on an arterial. The policy as.stated is quite restric- tive and could be counter productive,. -Perhaps a better expression would be: An apptapriate bicycle facility will be required on selected streets, collectors and arterials near public schools based on need as determined in the 20 -Year Bike Plan. On Page 79, a table number is needed. Under the functional classification, arterials are on the state highway system. Are CR 505A, CR 512 and CR 606 going to be transferred to the state system? If we can be of any further service, please let me know. :Sincer, Ed McNeely, Transp tation Specialist Office of Transpor tation Priorities Division of Planning ATTACHMENT #1 (17 of 21)
