Councilor Bettman, seconded by Councilor Poling, moved to approve the <br /> changes reflected in Attachment A, modifying the Draft June 2003 Central <br /> Area Transportation Study. <br /> <br /> Councilor Bettman, seconded by Councilor Kelly, moved to amend imple- <br /> mentation strategy 1.1 (g) to read as follows: <br /> "Willamette Street from 18th Avenue to 20th Avenue; prior to any con- <br /> version of this segment additional study and analysis shall be per- <br /> formed and a recommendation and project proposal brought back to <br /> the council for a public hearing and approval." <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman said the only change her amendment would implement was that it would add that after <br />analysis, scoping, and outreach to neighbors, it would come back before the council. She supported moving <br />forward with the project, but with the caveat that it should be done with careful consideration of the <br />businesses that would be negatively impacted by loss of parking and the surrounding neighborhoods that <br />have noise and traffic issues. <br /> <br />Councilor Kelly concurred. He felt public input had indicated that the issue had risen to a level of intensity <br />that it deserved second consideration. <br /> <br />Councilor Pap~ supported the amendment. While he said he was sympathetic to members of the public who <br />testified during the Public Forum, he averred that traffic flow on the streets in question had been a fixture <br />for 30 years and the people who bought or rented property in that area ~knew what they were getting into." <br />He hoped to look at the changes in a broader context. <br /> <br />Councilor Pap~ asked the City Manager if there had been any further discussion with School District 4J in <br />regard to purchasing a portion of the Civic Stadium site to augment Willamette Street. Mr. Taylor <br />responded that he had not spoken to representatives of the school district. <br /> <br />Councilor Meisner expressed concern that the amendment could slow the implementation of the plan, though <br />he was inclined to support it. He averred that staff, without a deadline, could take a long time to conduct the <br />study. <br /> <br />Councilor Taylor conveyed her support for the motion. <br /> <br /> Roll call vote; the amendment passed unanimously, 7:0. <br /> <br /> Councilor Bettman, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved to modify the <br /> language in Policy 1 so that it would read: <br /> ~Promote the development of a transportation system within the down- <br /> town area that supports the goals of the Downtown Plan, enhances the <br /> livability of downtown, preserves the livability and economic vitality <br /> of areas within and directly adjacent to the CATS boundary, and <br /> provides for the safe and efficient movement of motor vehicles, pedes- <br /> trians, bicycles, and transit vehicles (see Appendix A, Map 2 for pro- <br /> posed street system improvements)." <br /> <br />City Council -- May 24, 2004 Page 7 <br />Regular Meeting <br /> <br /> <br />
