RE:

Farmland Industries Redevelopment Plan – Minor Change

 

The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the Farmland Industries Redevelopment Plan at their November 28, 2007 meeting.  Following the action by the Planning Commission, staff noticed an omission in the Plan.  The functional classifications of the future roads identified in the Plan are not shown. 

 

Staff is proposing adding the following table to page 15 of the Plan.  The table calls out the functional classifications of the future roads of the Farmland property.  This minor change can be accomplished with approval by the City Commission and Board of County Commissioners.

 

Table 1 - Farmland Future Roads Functional Classification
