Item 6I P&DSD LANNING EVELOPMENT ERVICES EPARTMENT 1400MS,S310,S,TX76092 AIN TREET UITE OUTHLAKE www.cityofsouthlake.com M E M O R A N D U M February 13, 2008 TO: Mayor Wambsganss and City Council Members FROM: Ken Baker, AICP, Planning & Development Services Director SUBJECT : Resolution No. 08-006, an amendment to the City’s Mobility and Master Thoroughfare Plan, a component of the Southlake 2025 Plan, the City’s Comprehensive Master Plan. The Master Thoroughfare Plan is the city’s long-term system plan for its transportation network, including its thoroughfare system. Specifically, it is the city’sadopted general plan for guiding thoroughfare system improvements, including existing and planned extensions of city streets and highways. The primary objective of the thoroughfare plan is to ensure the reservation of adequate right-of-way on appropriate alignments and of sufficient width to allow the orderly and efficient expansion and improvement of the thoroughfare system to serve existing and future transportation needs. The Master Thoroughfare Plan was last revised in July 2005 as a part of the Consolidated Mobility and Master Thoroughfare Plan update in conjunction with the Southlake 2025 Plan. In addition, several amendments to the plan were adopted in May 2007 based on the Impact Fee Ordinance update and upcoming median and funnel projects. The current Master Thoroughfare Plan recommends a 2-lane, undivided 60 foot collector connecting North Peytonville Avenue to Shady Oaks Drive south of the Coventry subdivision. During the consideration of the Shady Oaks Addition, the developer proposed a residential street through the subdivision which was subsequently approved. This residential street, which is located in the general vicinity of the recommended collector, does not meet the requirements for a collector. For this reason, staff is recommending the removal of the 2-lane, undivided 60 foot collector from the Master Thoroughfare Plan. An exhibit showing the removal of the 60 foot undivided collector and a draft Master Thoroughfare Plan map are attached for your review. If you have any questions, please contact me at 817-748-8067.
