This Principal Arterial cross-section will enhance the travel experience for residents by providing a functional and attractive road designed to move traffic safely and efficiently. The Planning Commission considered this Master Street Plan amendment on August 8, 2005, on which they voted 9-0-0 in favor of the recommended amtndment. BUDGET IMPACT None. • • RESOLUTION NO.
