5E. Resolution No. 04 -022, An amendment to the Master Thoroughfare Plan for Kirkwood
Boulevard. At their regular meeting of February 19, the Planning and Zoning Commission
conducted a public hearing regarding amendment of the master thoroughfare plan for the
extension of Kirkwood Blvd. across North Carroll Ave. via Highland Avenue. After a detailed
staff presentation, a number of people spoke at the hearing expressing their concerns. In order
to obtain further public input, the Commission decided to have staff conduct a SPIN meeting on
the issue. On March 29, staff conducted the SPIN meeting, where approximately 30 people
were in attendance. At their regular meeting of April 8, the Commission heard the staff report
on the SPIN meeting followed by three staff offered options for consideration. The first option
was to recommend no changes to the master thoroughfare plan. The second option was for the
Commission to select one of three identified alternatives for the extension of Kirkwood Blvd.
across North Carroll Ave. The third option was to withhold making a recommendation at this
time and to include any recommendations for the intersection with the update of the master
thoroughfare plan. The decision of the Commission was for the third option and wait until all
recommended updates to the master thoroughfare plan were completed.
