Title
Matters relative to Major Thoroughfare Plan
Body
SUMMARY:
City Planning staff has prepared and presented an update to the city's Major Thoroughfare plan to the Crossville Regional Planning Commission. The Planning Commission has reviewed and adopted the Plan on August 15, 2013.
Many factors were used in the creation of the Plan, from observed traffic patterns, traffic count data, infrastructure, and general growth patterns. Input was received from the Planning Commission members and their suggestions were applied to the Plan.
A brief summary of the changes include, an adjustment to the alignment of the Northwest Connector, changes that resulted from the completion of Lantana Road project, a better alignment for the connector between Genesis Rd. and Peavine Rd. (from Interstate Drive intersecting with East First Street), Miller Ave completion (Milo Lemert section), a new connector from Cline Rd. to Fred Ford Rd. (north of the interstate), a new connector from HWY 70N to HWY 127N along Ivy Rd., and removed a section of proposed road between HWY 127 and Genesis Rd. (extension of Miller Ave. near Dairy Queen).
After Council review, the Plan will be taken to the Register of Deeds office in the Courthouse to be recorded. This Plan will supersede and replace the current Major Thoroughfare Plan, recorded as Plat Book 10 Page 654.
