Commissioner Davis inquired what has. been staff' s experience wAh multi - family <br /> residential traffic counts . Assistant Public Works Director Chris Mora confirmed that they have <br /> not done studies particularly for this County, but they have used the Institute of Traffic <br /> Engineers (ITE) and looking at rates used by ITE multi - family units have fewer occupants and <br /> generate fewer trips per day. They are on target when they say multi- family units produced 40 % <br /> fewer trips . <br /> County Administrator Baird pointed out that earlier in the day he advised the <br /> Board that counting trips for new subdivisions and development was going to be a problem . <br /> They were told it was just a number to use for long-term planning and it would not be used for <br /> development in planning and zoning, yet it already has occurred . <br /> H. Roscoe Niblack, who lives on the corner of West Lake Estates at 74th Avenue <br /> and 161h Street, said the issue has not been resolved with what they have done on 16th Street . He <br /> wanted to set the record straight that his pool is the one filled with dirt . The <br /> walls were <br /> developed to block the road, but it ends and does not go behind his house . He said <br />he has <br /> complete exposure to 74th . Avenue and he still gets the dust bowl . <br /> Jim Cooper, 7405 16th Manor S . , re- emphasized the traffic numbers and gave a <br /> quick calculation that he did with the realization of Mr. Keating ' s adjusted numbers with an RM- <br /> 6 . The bottom line is , he said, "Less traffic is better. " <br /> Julie Stroh , 7400 16th Manor, thanked the Board for holding a 6 : 00 p . m . meeting . <br /> She advocated against the project . She spoke of the little effect a 6 ' wall has over a two - story <br /> home . It seemed to her there was some kind of manipulative ploy. She saw inflated cost per <br /> housing posing a real problem for the workforce . She displayed a zoning map sho ing one lot in <br /> the surrounding area zoned RM- 8 and she asked the Board to hold them to RM- 6 . <br /> Senior Planner Gale Carmoney displayed a map indicating the surrounding zoning <br /> areas to this development . <br /> �pEE1 "t ^ 3 <br /> September 12 , 2006 - 6 : 00 p . m. 5 L91� r 7 i <br /> Public Hearing - Treviso <br />
