Mr. King noted that certain concerns have surfaced basically concerning the access to this shopping center from U.S., and staff now is recommending approval subject to the conditions set out on the second page of the addendum memo. Commissioner Scurlock asked if the developer is in agreement with these five conditions, and Mr. King felt he is in agreement with all but one. On-site traffic circulation is the main concern. Commissioner Lyons believed we have a severe problem on U.S.I, and we must assure that nothing further is created to worsen the situation. Mr. King explained the recommended conditions, noting that they are trying to make provision that should the property to the north be developed in a commercial nature, the projects can be tied together to facilitate the traffic flow. Considerable discussion ensued regarding alternative means of ingress and egress and the fact that staff wishes to have a stub road at the northeast corner of the property as well as ingress and egress at 10th Avenue, which is on the northwest corner. Public Works Director Davis reported that staff has been confused about the status of the developer's negotiations concerning the property to the north and as to the stage of development they have arrived at for the old trailer park between K -Mart Plaza and Luria's Plaza. Bob Bannerman, Project Manager for Luria's Plaza, reported that development of the adjacent property could be one year or possibly five years down the road. They are interested only in what they are developing at this time and cannot commit the developer any further as they have no idea what may go on that property in the future. Discussion continued at length about the necessity to have good planning, and Commissioner Fletcher asked if Mr. Bannerman would agree the adjacent property most likely would be used for something that would. require a high traffic flow. 37 1 154 %E6 0 7
