Item 10ACity of Southlake, Texas M E M O R A N D U M February 14, 2007 TO: Shana Yelverton, City Manager FROM: Ken Baker, Planning and Development Services Director Status of the Urban Design Study/Median Plan SUBJECT: Since December 2006, city staff has been working with the Urban Design work group and the consultants on a draft median plan for F.M. 1709 and Davis Boulevard. In an effort to gather public input, the city held a City-wide SPIN meeting on the proposed median locations on Tuesday, January 30, 2007. Approximately 70 persons were in attendance and the city has received several comments on the proposed median openings. Based on the input from this SPIN public meeting, the consultants have revised the median plan and will present City Council with an update at the February 20, 2007 meeting. The purpose of the discussion will be two-fold: (1) to provide staff and consultants feedback on the revised median plan, and (2) make a recommendation on the reducing the lane width from 12’ to 11’ for the segment of F.M. 1709 between Village Center Drive and Carroll Avenue. The approximate cost of such a lane width reduction is $400,000. If you have any questions, please contact me at 817-748-8067.
