10. Calendared Bills and Tabled Items:
A. BILL 1166 to Rezone approximately 154 South 3rd West from Medium Density 1 (MDR1) to
High Density Residential 2 (HDR2). (Recommend approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission with two
Public Works staff recommendations on April 06, 2017) #1 The existing sewer system would need to be evaluated to
determine if it would be able to handle the increased flow from the higher densities of the new zone; and #3 If the zone
change is approved a traffic impact study would be required from any future development to determine street
improvements needed; and with a strong recommendation against Public Works staff recommendation #2 which
states: Increased density in the area would increase the traffic by the Splash Park and Carousel in Porter Park. With
safety being the primary concern, the City currently installs speed bumps along 2nd South during the summer months to
slow traffic down in this area. If the Zone change was approved, Public Works would recommend relocation of the
Splash Park and Carousel.” NOTE: PUBLIC WORKS WILL REVIEW THE TRAFFIC STUDY AT
THE 5:00 P.M. WORK MEETING ON JUNE 07, 2017.
