HomeMy Public PortalAbout2009_tcwsmin0608 Council Work Session June 8, 2009 Council Chambers, 25 West Market Street, 7:30 p.m. Mayor Umstattd presiding. Council Members Present: Thomas Dunn, II, Katie Sheldon Hammier, Ken Reid, Kevin Wright and Mayor Kristen Umstattd Council Members Absent: Dave Butler and Marty Martinez Staff Present: Town Manager John Wells, Deputy Town Manager Kaj Dentler, Town Attorney Jeanette Irby, Director of Public Works Tom Mason, Director of Plan Review Bill Ackman, Deputy Director of Planning and Zoning Brian Boucher, Zoning Administrator Chris Murphy, Transportation Engineer Calvin Grow, and Management Specialist/Deputy Clerk of Council Debi Parry AGENDA ITEMS 1. Work Session Items for Discussion: a. Request for 1-1 Text Amendment Chris Murphy stated Council received a request for a Zoning Ordinance text amendment for the 1-1 permitting a place of worship, child care center and school of general education as by-right uses from Christ Community Lutheran Church. He stated currently the place of worship and child care uses are allowed as special exceptions and staff recommends maintaining these as special exception uses and adding the school of general education as a special exception use. He stated this will maintain the authority Council has to mitigate any impacts by the use on other uses in the 1-1. Council Member Dunn expressed concern that Council voted to help a business who was told that they are not going to be able to use the amount of square footage that they wanted for their entertainment use and now we have a church who is interested in the same property for a school, place of worship and child care center. He stated he would rather see both parties sent through the process to be fair for everybody. He stated there are bigger issues that need to be addressed in the 1-1 and our zoning regarding which items should require a special exception. Further, he stated he does not want to give a hint of favoritism towards one party or another. Council Member Reid asked if there is anywhere in Leesburg where a church can be constructed by-right. Mr. Murphy stated churches are by-right in the B-1, B-2 and B-3 districts. Council Member Reid stated he supports staff's recommendation. He asked the status of the entertainment use initiation. Brian Boucher stated it will go before the Planning Commission in July. He stated if this request is initiated it will be put in with the request for the entertainment use. Council Member Wright stated he spoke with the Planning Commission to let them know that Council is initiating something else in the 1-1. He stated Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Page 2 Planning Commission Chairman Burk's reaction was that perhaps the issue is not the 1-1, but rather the zone that we have in that location. He stated that while this area is zoned 1-1, it is planned to move towards a business regional office use. He stated rather that rewriting the 1-1 to create a transitional zone it may make more sense just to determine a more appropriate transitional zone for this area. He asked if there is a way to initiate appropriate changes to the Zoning Ordinance to accommodate appropriate transitional uses in the 1-1 including the items we have discussed versus just amending the 1-1. Mr. Boucher stated we would need to consider what is in the Town Plan and how much of that should be included in the Zoning Ordinance. He stated there was the thought in the 1997 Town Plan that 1-1 may not be the best district for this area; however, there are areas in the 1-1 that are crucial for potential road improvements and if we allow certain things by-right we could lose the road improvements. Council Member Wright clarified his recommendation that this initiation be open to allow the latitude in the event that a transitional district or low density business district is better suited for the area rather than 1-1. Mr. Boucher stated that can be done; however, staff has a meeting scheduled for Tuesday with the applicant. He stated the applicant wanted to attend the meeting tonight; however, he had a scheduling conflict. He stated we can look at several uses that do not have major impact together rather than reacting to individual cases. Council Member Wright asked if there is a way to initiate this broadly enough that we get a good answer instead of having the options narrowed by what was initiated. Mr. Boucher stated there is a way to initiate this while leaving the options open. Vice Mayor Hammier stated strategically we need to look at economic impacts to the Town and what the fiscal policies are ensuring that we have for-profit businesses. She stated at some point if the process becomes burdensome then the reality of trying to secure funding from bankers will become even more difficult. She stated the bankers can decide one business over another; however, she would like to be in the position of looking at the economic impact from the Town's perspective and to make the process as business friendly as possible. Mayor Umstattd concurred with the staff recommendation. Mr. Wells clarified it is Council's desire to have a resolution on the agenda for tomorrow night for the initiation. b. North King Street Crosswalk Calvin Grow stated staff has received a request from a citizen to install a pedestrian crossing sign in the crosswalk at North King Street and Oak Crest Manor Drive. He stated staff has reviewed the request and determined that a sign cannot be placed at this location because of turning vehicles. He stated the Police Department determined that there have been no accidents at this location -"._-_._~-_._----..........._------_._~._~-~_...-_. Town Council Work Session of June 9, 2009 Page 3 in the last four years and plan to do some pedestrian counts in this area during the week once school is out because of the new pool. He stated staff's recommendation is to place a driver feedback sign just south of this location. He stated if staff does determine that there is a problem, a pedestrian push button sign could be installed to alert drivers of pedestrians in the crosswalk. Council Member Dunn stated the flashing pedestrian light does not say that traffic has to stop and if the light is flashing he does not want pedestrians to think they can cross just because the light is flashing. He stated he has been thinking about this and feels the only truly safe way to do this is to bring traffic to a stop. He stated the lady who sent an email to Council commented that she has to "wait and wait and wait" to cross, but that is what you are supposed to do, you are supposed to wait until it is safe to cross and then cars are supposed to yield to you. He asked if there is another option to bring traffic to a stop other than a stop sign. He stated the responsibility rests with the pedestrian and once they initiate that action the responsibility is on the driver. Mr. Grow said staff will be working with the Police Department over the next couple of weeks to determine the delay that pedestrians face when crossing at this location. He stated if the delay is 30 seconds or longer a pedestrian may take a risk and try to cross the street. He stated the traffic has picked up in this area because of the water park. Council Member Dunn asked the distance from where the traffic slows from 35 miles per hour to 25 miles per hour to the crosswalk. Mr. Grow stated the speed limit slows to 25 miles per hour at the intersection of Battlefield Parkway and North King Street. He stated there is a foundation at this location where the driver feedback sign could be located. Council Member Dunn stated he has noticed a number of raised crosswalks on Route 29 and Route 50 in Fairfax where the speed limit is 25. He asked if it is possible to make this a raised crosswalk. Mr. Grow stated he would have to investigate whether VDOT would allow a raised crosswalk at this location. Council Member Reid asked if it is possible to have another crosswalk on the south side of Oak Crest Manor Drive. Mr. Grow stated the current crosswalk ties into the park and there is nothing on the other side of the street. Council Member Reid stated he believes staff's recommendation is fine; however, he does not want there to be sign clutter in this area. He stated he still likes the lighted crosswalk the best as the SRTC recommended, but feels this is a good tool. He stated maybe long term if Ida Lee Drive is heavily used there may be a need to make an intersection at Oak Crest Manor and Ida Lee Drive. He asked if there is funding available. Mr. Wells stated there is money available in the contingency fund. Town Council Work Session of June 9, 2009 Page 4 Council Member Reid stated this is a good recommendation especially with the water park and the expansion of St. John's Catholic Church. Council Member Wright stated it is his understanding that staff is recommending further study with no immediate action. Mr. Grow stated the immediate action would be the driver feedback sign; however, staff would continue to gather information and study pedestrian traffic. He stated if there is a problem then we would recommend the pedestrian sign. Council Member Wright concurred with Council Member Dunn stating according to the email today and others that he has read it seems the issue is not about safety, but about the wait. He stated he understands Mr. Grow's concern that if the wait is too long it could become a safety issue. He stated it seems people are waiting for the car to stop so they can cross when in actuality they need to stand at the curb and wait for traffic to clear. He stated we can put up all the flashing lights we want but people still have to wait for the traffic to stop. He stated he supports the installation of the feedback sign and further study as to what the problem is and where we are as far as warrants for other traffic control devices. Further, he stated we need to be mindful that we are solving the problem that we were asked to solve. Vice Mayor Hammier stated over the last few days there has been a police presence at this location and cars are slowing down. She stated clearly we have more pressing issues for our police to focus on and asked if the Citizens Support group can issue citations to people who are driving too fast. Mr. Grow stated he can follow up with the Police Department to ask. Mayor Umstattd stated the Chief discussed instituting the system of taking down license plate numbers and issuing warnings. Mr. Wells stated they could write down a license plate number and send a warning, but they could not issue citations. Vice Mayor Hammier suggested placing a sign in this area during the summer when pedestrian traffic is higher to slow down traffic similar to a school zone with the volunteer group involved. She stated facts will probably support what we anecdotally see; however, she frequently crosses at this location and she does not have a long wait. Mayor Umstattd asked if the email sent today indicated a time of day or day of the week when crossing is a problem. She stated when she drives in this area she has not noticed a lot of traffic. Council Member Wright read the following from the email, "I walk in that area everyday and have to wait and wait and wait for someone to stop so that I can cross safely". Mayor Umstattd verified the study will be done during different times during the day. Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Paqe 5 Council Member Dunn asked if the traffic light at the W&OD Trail crossing on Catoctin Circle is solely for bicycle traffic. Mr. Grow stated the light is for pedestrian traffic. He stated when the study was conducted the traffic light was warranted. He stated VDOT paid for the traffic signal. Council Member Dunn stated he would imagine that this crosswalk does not come close to that amount of traffic. Mr. Grow stated according to the preliminary counts it does not seem to be at that level. Council Member Reid stated the SRTC recommended the lighted crosswalk because residents came to the committee in 2007 requesting assistance. He stated there was a citizen who requested a crosswalk at Ida Lee Drive, but was told that was not possible because it is not a full intersection. He stated if there is anything we can do to add to pedestrian safety or to let drivers know there is a crosswalk we should do it. He stated this is an appropriate place to do this. He stated the crosswalk at Potomac Station Drive sees most of its use during school hours. Mr. Grow stated the requests came from the community because there were a number of night programs at the school. He stated at that location Loudoun County Public Schools paid for half of the project. Council Member Reid stated Loudoun County Public Schools paid for 25 mile per hour reminder signs on Tavistock Drive and Battlefield Parkway. He stated it is just an extra warning device and it is worth it. He stated this issue did not just come up, it has been discussed for a long time. He stated the SRTC recommended the flashing crosswalk because there were concerns and especially as we look further out with the trail extension, cemetery expansion and the outdoor pool it is just going to get busier. Further, he recommended installing the pedestrian activated signs. Council Member Dunn asked if there is any precedence for a sign when pushed to cross that flashed "Pedestrians in Crosswalk Ahead" to alert drivers. He stated you still have to watch out for a false sense of security with the pedestrian. Mr. Grow stated a mast arm could be installed with flashing lights activated by the pedestrian. Council Member Dunn stated he would like something 50 yards before the crosswalk to let drivers know that there are pedestrians ahead. Mr. Grow stated he could investigate that option. Council Member Reid stated he believes there is also a flashing pedestrian sign for the pool at Kincaid Boulevard and Patrice Drive. He stated he believes there is not a lot of pedestrian traffic there except when the pool is open. Town Council Work Session of June 9, 2009 Page 6 Vice Mayor Hammier stated we still need to think what the right solution is. She stated this is a very peaceful area and the more we over engineer the solution the greater the chance that we could lose the serenity of the memorial garden. It was the consensus of Council to install the driver feedback sign and study the area to evaluate further solutions. c. State Legislative Changes Follow up Debi Parry stated this is a follow up to the information provided two weeks ago. She stated staff has reviewed the list and provided recommendations for the legislation passed by the General Assembly. Council Member Reid asked that a copy of SB 1529 "Employees, local; right to participate in political activities" be sent to him. He stated he supports the legislation that gives Council additional authority and especially the legislation dealing with proffer amendments. He expressed concern with the legislation pertaining to the Phase I environmental assessment required for rezoning, special exceptions and site plans and asked if other counties in Virginia have that authority. Brian Boucher stated there are other counties that have environmental requirements; however, he is not sure that they raise to the level of what the state is addressing in this legislation. He stated staff is still reviewing these items and will provide more detail to Council once they have a better understanding of the legislation. Council Member Reid stated there is a lot here and he is not sure that the Town needs to proceed with all of these options. He stated his only concern is with the Phase 1 environmental study legislation. Council Member Wright stated as Council decides which legislation to proceed with he would ask that Mr. Wells get an understanding of our overall work plan and how to prioritize these changes. He stated as Council selects items for approval or further research he would ask that the appropriate boards and commissions also be involved. He stated he would not recommend pursuing HB 1828 "Green roof construction; localities and water authorities to over rate incentives therefore" since our Utility Funds stands alone and Council should not use those funds as a means of development incentives. He stated HB 2168, HB 1991 and HB 1930 regarding storm water management are interesting. He stated HB 982 "Storm water; requires localities to waive fees for properties that reduce post-development storm water flows" is also interesting because the Crescent District needs a lot of infrastructure and it discusses the ability to do pro-ratas. He stated HB 1975" Green roofs; authorizes counties, cities and towns, by ordinance to grant incentives" is interesting; however, we need to research what the County intends to do. He stated HJ 688 "Constitutional amendment; real property tax relief for persons 65 years old, etc" and asked if we would have to go about taking over the assessments if we were to set this income level on our own. Jeanette Irby stated we follow whatever the County guidelines are, so if they qualify for assistance under the County then we offer the same. Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Paqe 7 Council Member Wright recommended that we continue to follow what the County does and make sure they know this is available to them. He stated HB 2182jSB 1200 "Vehicle license fees and taxes, local; allows localities to exempt veterans and surviving spouses" is something that would be worthwhile doing. He stated HB 2055jSB 1418 "Development rights; makes extensive changes to provisions for making the transfer process more usable" is not needed as we do not have enough land to worry about the transfer of development rights. He commented on HB 1724 "Trespassing vehicle; local regulation of removal and immobilization thereof" asking if this is an issue for the Town. Jeanette Irby stated this is not an issue and whenever we do enforcement of this nature it is done in conjunction with the Sheriff's Department. Council Member Wright stated HB 2130jSB 1369 "Graffiti abatement; permits localities to charge property owner for cost thereof" and HB 2424 "Graffiti; restitution for abatement costs" seem like something we should pursue as we continue to go after the gang issues. He stated it seems to give the ability for quick remediation to get the graffiti off and provides tools for reimbursement if it is on private property. Mayor Umstattd stated the way that it is described seems unfair to the private property owner. She stated it appears we can require them to do the graffiti abatement and we can get reimbursement in court. Ms. Irby stated the victim impact statement would be reviewed by the courts and the funds would be awarded to whoever provided the abatement, whether it be the Town or a private property owner. Council Member Wright asked if staff needs the tools provided in HB 2247 "Water and waste authorities; lien may apply for delinquent rates applicable for three or fewer months". Ms. Irby stated when we have the opportunity to enact the new utility rate schedule staff is going to incorporate this and we also have left out an interest charge that will be incorporated with this as well. Council Member Wright stated he assumes the County would take the lead on HB 2132 "Workforce housing; locality may offer housing assistance grants to school division personnel", Ms. Irby stated she has heard that the County is supposed to be working on workforce housing; however, it is her understanding that they have not gotten very far. She stated when they enact something we will try to mirror it. Council Member Wright concurred with Council Member Reid's concern with SB 1524 "Zoning Ordinances; broadens administrator's authority to determine vested rights" regarding how extensive the Phase 1 environmental study is. He stated embedded in the same piece of legislation is the ability to increase our penalties on overcrowding. He stated he would like to see if the Town can enact the ability to increase the overcrowding penalties without requiring the Phase 1 environmental assessment. He verified SB 2326 "Zoning appeals, board of; changes standard by which variance can be granted" is a required change. He verified if HB 1416 "Preservation of historical sites and architectural areas; local Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Page 8 governing bodies may include" is the legislation Mr. Boucher referred to when he mentioned more research is required before staff can discern what the legislation requires. Mayor Umstattd expressed concern with HB 2138/ SB 1369 "Graffiti abatement; permits localities to charge property owner for cost thereof" because the property owner is targeted with graffiti through no fault of their own. She stated we want the graffiti gone immediately; however, it is as if we are levying a fine on someone for being vandalized. Council Member Wright stated he understands the Mayor's concern and suggested that the Town work on a remediation plan. Council Member Dunn stated his understanding was that this legislation is aimed at owners who are leaving their properties unoccupied. He stated he believes the purpose is to place pressure on property owners who are leaving their properties unoccupied, not just graffiti blight but also perhaps disrepair. Ms. Irby stated the Town already pursues individuals who leave their properties unoccupied. She stated she understands Mayor Umstattd's point about going after a property owner who has been vandalized even if their property is unoccupied. She stated she will work with Planning and Zoning to see how this can be implemented while being fair to the property owner. d. Discussion of American Flag Displays throughout Town Council Member Dunn discussed his desire to have flags placed on the telephone poles. He stated Mr. Wells and staff are looking into this and he believes there is some resistance from the owners of the poles. Mr. Wells stated staff has to contact both Dominion Virginia Power and Verizon. He stated when staff looked into extending the hanging baskets and flags down South King Street to the bridge two years ago; we were not successful in getting their approval. He stated he believes we should try again and check with the Town of Hamilton and the Town of Purcellville to see how they were able to achieve what we are trying to do. He stated the Town does have a provision for flag displays on certain days; however, Council Member Dunn is suggesting a more permanent display over the summer months and a wider area of Town. Council Member Reid asked the span of time this would cover. Council Member Dunn stated he is recommending that the flags be displayed from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Council Member Reid asked if there would be a maintenance issue. Mr. Wells stated Town staff would be responsible for putting up and taking down the flags and replacing any flags that are damaged. Council Member Dunn asked which poles the flags are placed on. Mr. Wells stated the flags are currently displayed on street light poles that do not have the extensive wiring like the telephone poles. Town Council Work Session of June 9, 2009 Paqe 9 Tom Mason stated the flags are displayed on 18 poles. Council Member Dunn verified the flags are displayed only in the downtown. He asked if staff has counted the number of poles in the expanded area on Market Street and King Street. Mr. Wells stated he has not counted the poles; however, there are approximately 50 poles. e. Sycolin Flyover Design Update Kaj Dentler stated staff was asked to look into funding opportunities for the Sycolin Flyover and the funding status. He stated staff has learned that Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has a design contract on their desk for approval; however, they have the chosen to approve it thus far. He stated staff does not know what is causing the delay and the environmental assessments cannot begin until the contract is approved. He stated it seems VDOT may be focusing on projects with construction funds and staff would like Council's assistance in contacting various representatives such as Delegate May who have influence over VDOT. Mayor Umstattd suggested voting to approve a resolution tomorrow night authorizing letters to be sent to the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors, the Town's legislative representatives, VDOT, the Commonwealth Transportation Board and the Secretary of Transportation asking for assistance. Council Member Wright suggested contacting Terrie Laycock to see if she can also put a similar agenda item before the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors for action. Council Member Reid stated this a situation similar to when Council had to step in on the issue of VDOT requesting that the Town pay $400,000 for a study of the diamond versus cloverleaf intersection for Battlefield Parkway. He stated he believes Delegate Joe May is going to work with the Town on that. He stated we need to have specific information in the resolution as to why the Sycolin Flyover is important to the Town and the County. He stated this is a major regional bottleneck and we need to stress that. He stated VDOT has known for two years that Battlefield would be completed to Route 7 and that there was no reason to have any connections at Sycolin Road anymore yet they did not even start the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) study. He asked if the design can start without doing the NEPA study first because of the environmental issues with the creek. Mr. Dentler stated they have to award the contract for design first. Council Member Reid suggested also including crash statistics in the resolution and a statement regarding the fact that with Battlefield Parkway now under way, this should be our highest transportation priority within the Town limits. Council Member Wright stated this needs to be the same adverse reaction that we had when VDOT tried to pull the funding for Battlefield Parkway. He stated he has heard that there is a meeting about Sycolin Road on Wednesday at VDOT's offices and asked if staff could check into that. Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Page 10 Vice Mayor Hammier stated the County hired Tom Farley from VDOT who may be able to provide assistance. Council Member Reid stated we need to work with Senator Vogel and Senator Herring as this affects their districts. Council Member Dunn stated the only reason he can think of as to why VDOT would not want to proceed would be that they are going to be widening the Bypass; however, they should be able to construct the flyover with the widening intended. Mr. Mason stated last year Council adopted a resolution requesting that VDOT proceed with preliminary design of the widening and the bridge with the first phase of construction being the bridge. He stated whatever design they do for the bridge will take the widening into consideration. Council Member Reid stated we have to clearly state that adding lanes to the Bypass is not nearly as critical as upgrading it to an expressway. He asked if VDOT had responded to that resolution. Mr. Mason stated the widening and the flyover will be designed together and then the flyover will be constructed first. Council Member Reid stated he has seen people riding their bikes across the Bypass. Mayor Umstattd stated part of the resolution should also mention how many vehicle trips per day occur in this area and that these are people who are commuting back and forth to their jobs in Fairfax and D.C. to highlight the regional impact. Council Member Dunn suggested also sending this to our Federal Representatives. Mr. Mason stated during Chairman Scott York's State of the County address this morning he highlighted several transportation priorities including the flyover. He stated it may be that combining efforts with the County might be beneficial. Mayor Umstattd suggesting asking the County to also sign the letters we send. f. TLZM 2008-0010 Village at Leesburg Concept Plan and Proffer Amendments Brian Boucher stated the applicant has requested additional amendments to the concept plans and proffers and staff is hoping that by tomorrow most of the outstanding issues will be resolved. Council Member Wright stated the Planning Commission reviewed this request and recommended approval by a 4-1-2 vote. He asked Mr. Boucher to explain the request. Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Page 11 Mr. Boucher stated the applicant had uses they wanted to add such as the possibility for a hotel and the possibility for a movie theatre. He stated also on the same pad where they could potentially put the theatre or hotel, they wanted some options for the area. He stated this is located on the western end of the site. He stated they are also requesting some by-right uses as the concept plan did not show any layout for this area. He stated staff has worked with them on standards of development that will be placed in the proffers in the event of by- right uses. Council Member Dunn asked if there is any information as to the number of seats or screens for the theatre. Mr. Boucher stated that use requires a special exception. He stated the applicant does not have an exact number of seats or screens, but the maximum size is 42,000 square feet. Council Member Dunn stated he was hoping the EDC could work with the applicant on a cinema that is more like a dinner theatre with stadium seating in front and table service in the back. He asked if that could be written into the zoning requirements. Mr. Boucher stated there would be opportunities to get into more detail during the special exception process. He stated the purpose of a special exception is to mitigate negative impacts; however, the applicant would have the opportunity to dictate the form of the theatre. He stated it would be difficult to impose that as a condition for a special exception. Council Member Dunn stated it seems at some point we need to write our plans to how we are today rather than trying to fit ourselves into guidelines that we have not been able to meet. Mr. Boucher stated when you are looking at details on applications there are certain parameters. He stated it might be difficult to get into the specifics of the theatre; however, Council can look at the scale, the look, the traffic it generates and height. Council Member Reid stated the report indicates that street trees will be planted along the private street and asked if the word "maintained" could be added. Mr. Boucher stated because they are private streets the applicant will have to maintain them as the Town has no responsibility there. . Council Member Reid stated some of the trees at the Fort Evans shopping center and other shopping centers are not doing too well. Council Member Wright asked if the trees are on the concept plan, are they not required to stay there. Mr. Boucher stated yes, if they are required by zoning then the applicant is responsible for maintaining them. -''''~~-'--''''''---~---~-""-,~,.""~.,."~-,,.-.,,"_..,,.".._.._,~--,.~."..._---, Town Council Work Session of June 9. 2009 Page 12 Mike Banzhaf, attorney for the applicant, stated there are three possibilities for the area potentially discussed for the theatre. He stated the area is 65,000 square feet and one of the options has 12 cinemas and 1,000 seats. He stated the theatres have table service and stadium seating. Vice Mayor Hammier stated she had a phone conversation with Mr. Banzhaf earlier today and they discussed the look and the feel of the area. She stated ultimately this is a decision for Kettler as at a certain point they need a certain percentage of the facilities leased. She stated she would not want to be burdensome from a regulatory perspective and start looking at anything beyond more form based code type of issues. 2. Additions to Future Council Meetings Council Member Reid stated there are a number of potential items listed to come before Council in June and mentioned that the Countywide Transportation Plan item could wait till July. Mr. Wells stated there are a number of items scheduled for June including the EDC Fac;ade Grant item and the Town Code adoption that need to be addressed. He stated the H-2 Guidelines could come forward at a work session and the Countywide Transportation Plan item could wait until July. He stated staff does want to hold open the option over the next two meetings to talk about utility rate setting rather than waiting till the last minute. Council Member Reid verified Mr. Wells will bring forward the SRTC recommendation to Council. He stated he suggested at the SRTC meeting that this looks to be identical language used for the Lowenbach barricade resolution and asked if that could be emulated for this resolution. Council Member Dunn verified the H-2 Guidelines would be coming forward in June. Council Member Wright stated we have a number of little white fence barricades on roadways and he noticed over at the Kettler site that the white fence has a sign indicating what is going to happen to that roadway and where it is going to go. He recommended that we figure out where all of the white fences are in Town and post a sign indicating where that road will lead once completed. Adjournment On a motion by Vice Mayor Hammier, seconded by Council Member Wright, the meeting was adjourned at 8:49 p.m. ---~.-- --- 2009_tcwsmin0608
