Nish responded: They will see this in two weeks on September 19. Your meeting came first, so it will be presented 205 to them at their meeting in two weeks. Both of your recommendations will go to the Board of County 206 Commissioners’ together. It is not like one is going then the other. Both packets together with all your comments 207 together and then the Board will make a decision either at the public hearing or the following meeting. 208 209 The plan will be implemented through the Unified Development Ordinance which requires development be in 210 compliance with adopted local plans like an Access Management Plan and it is through the UDO we would use this 211 plan to get people to dedicate the right-of-way in the event these roads are constructed. 212 213 Any Questions. 214 215 Hunter Spitzer asked when comments are needed by? 216 217 Nish Trivedi answered: by the 28th of September. I want to put all comments together before sitting down with staff 218 to see if there is anything to add or improve. We will add a simple Q&A at the end of the document. Those will come 219 back to you in October for your recommendations. 220 221 Tom Altieri clarified the comment period. Any comments the Board would have tonight, we will take our notes and 222 collect those comments. As Nish mentioned it is coming back to you next month and as you are reviewing the 223 document and have comments send them to him. If you want to send an email to Nish you are welcome to do that 224 and he can report out at the beginning of your next meeting what comments he has collected so far and how those 225 comments will be addressed. 226 227 At the end of the presentation is Nish’s contact information. 228 229 Randy Marshall spoke about detail of plan and mentioned the feedback forms. He stated the plan looked 230 comprehensive for such a small part of Orange County in the sense that a lot of time, energy and thought was put 231 into the preparation. Such as assessment of traffic, where traffic wants to go and to get to the different parts. I did 232 notice on the feedback forms that people were still confused, I am sure a lot of that is to be expected because it is all 233 conjecture at this point. This will hit the road so to speak when development comes in and we will have this as a 234 starting point in terms of planning purposes for that area. 235 236 Adam Beeman asked about the bridge at Buckhorn Rd. and I-85. Are there any plans of putting lights up on that 237 bridge at Buckhorn Road when you get off I-85 and come across the bridge, now there are no lights on that bridge at 238 all? You are presently at mercy of stopping and looking for traffic before making those turns. Just wonder when 239 that’s coming. 240 241 Nish Trivedi said that they will look at future improvements 242 243 Tom Altieri spoke about developers and traffic impact studies. That will come when development comes. For 244 example, if a developer came in and wanted to develop a piece of property, much like the application for Settlers 245 Point, when it came in there would be forecasts done for additional traffic on the roadway, if roadway improvements 246 would be necessary, turn lanes and traffic lights could be some of those improvements. There is nothing planned 247 now for construction of the network reflected in the draft Access Management Plan. 248 249 Carrie Fletcher asked about road updates on Buckhorn Rd and bridge developments? 250 251 Tom Altieri answered. One of the recommendations, in fact, one of the only four lane cross-sections is at Buckhorn 252 Road. The cross-section for Buckhorn Road from West 10 all the way towards Hwy 70 would be for a four-lane 253 divided cross section. So, that’s something as an example of if a developer came in they may be able to ask to, at 254 least, protect the right-of-way and the right-of-way width, so, eventually when there is enough critical mass there it 255 10
