• PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL Revision to 19th Ave. S.E. Area Comprehensive Plan Transportation Improvements Date: March 10, 1987 WHEREAS, on February 8, 1987, City Council passed Resolution No. 2820 to form a Local Improvement District (LID) for the improvement of a street, water and sanitary sewer system called the 19th Ave. S.E. Street and Utility Improvement, and WHEREAS, it is necessary for the Planning Commission to act on the locations of the proposed streets, the following is submitted: Proposal: To revise the 19th Avenue S.E. Comprehensive Plan to reflect the roadway corridor proposal in plans prepared by property owners in the area. Location of Proposal: West of 19th Ave. S.E. east of I-5 and north of 112th Street S.E. Exhibits: 1 . Vicinity Map Showing Property Owner Proposal 2. Transportation Corridor Map 3. Resolution 14. Citizen Comments Summary of Modifications to Transportation Map: 1. The street system will not extend north to 101st Street as this would create a major intersection in close proximity to the existing signalized intersection at 100th Street and 19th Avenue. (It is anticipated the 102nd Street intersection will need to be signalized in the future with the separation between 100th Street and 102nd Street providing adequate space for progression between signals.) 2. There are only three east/west streets proposed, those being 102nd, 105th, and 106th Streets S.E. The comprehensive plan calls for a total of six east/west streets in the Plan Area. A local improvement district to finance the construction of sanitary sewers, water, and the property owners suggested street network is proposed. A public hearing on the LID is scheduled for April 22, 1987• The LID has received what appears to be enough support to be successful. The proposal by the property owners adequately addresses the traffic needs of the area. The remaining streets have been eliminated from the LID to minimize the costs of the project as this is necessary to secure financing of the project based on the assessed value of properties in the area. Note: The southern portion of street system is being financed by a private developer to a point south of 106th Street S.E. Additional Findings: 1. The street system meets the intent of the 19th Avenue S.E. Area Comprehensive Plan by minimizing the points of congestion on 19th Avenue S.E. and by providing the desired internal collector street system. Other east/west streets could be installed at the option of the adjacent property owners but were to costly to be included in the L.I.D. 2. This is a project that the majority of the property owners in the L.I.D. area support. Much of the southern portion of the street improvement within the L.I.D. boundaries has already been designed by private parties with plans already approved by the City for 105th, 106th and 16th Avenue.
