<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />neighborhood residents, and developers. The group would be charged with <br />developing trigger criteria. Thus, the neighbors would be guaranteed that <br />the roads would not be built until they are needed. <br /> <br />Mr. Cornacchia stated that if the trigger concept were footnoted in <br />TransPlan, it would not be implemented until it was needed, yet it would <br />still be included in the long-range transportation planning document. <br /> <br />Regarding the redesignation of the 62 acres from medium-density to low-densi- <br />ty residential, Mr. Cornacchia said that that would require a Metro Plan <br />amendment. He suggested that the City evaluate the potential of a new resi- <br />dential policy that stipulated periodic review. He said that the decisions <br />need not be made tonight, but that mechanisms for them to be made can be <br />adopted. <br /> <br />Regarding the issue of electromagnetic fields, Mr. Cornacchia said that a <br />limitation should be placed in the plan. He clarified that he supported <br />development and growth, but stated that lines of 5 milligaus have not been <br />proven not to cause cancer. <br /> <br />Mr. Beyer responded that he agrees with Mr. Cornacchia's suggestion regarding <br />the 180 acres of residential property. He said that development will not be <br />possible until services are available in the area. Regarding the trigger <br />concept, he said that it makes sense. He said that an extension of Pioneer <br />Parkway will most likely not be needed for another 10 years. He supported <br />the idea of the cooperative process. He agreed with the PAC regarding the <br />historical issue. He thought that the scope of the milligaus issue should be <br />metro-wide. He said that the utility board, not the City Council, should <br />address the issue and that the residents should have a representative in the <br />discussions. <br /> <br />Ms. Bascom stated that the transportation corridor should be utilized as soon <br />as possible. She said that extending Pioneer Parkway is an opportunity to <br />raise the economy and will thus make the area more livable. She supported <br />the trigger concept. <br /> <br />Mr. Cornacchia offered clarification that the trigger concept emanated from <br />Tom Atkinson of the Springfield Planning Commission. <br /> <br />Mr. Boles contended that there are negative consequences to growth. He said <br />that the refinement plan addresses economic growth adequately, but does not <br />address quality of life issues in enough depth. He pointed out that the area <br />has nothing left to sell after the quality of the area has been lessened or <br />destroyed. He supported the trigger concept, pointing out that it provides a <br />menu of opportunity--especially in light of Goal 12--to shape the future <br />according to its needs. He also agreed that the milligaus issue should be <br />dealt with conservatively and throughout the metro area. <br /> <br />Ms. Ehrman pointed out that it will be very difficult to describe the trigger <br />concept in TransPlan. In addition, she said that it will be binding on the <br />development of future plans. <br /> <br />MINUTES--Joint Elected Officials <br /> <br />January 29, 1992 <br /> <br />Page 16 <br />
