improvements to Basswood Boulevard and she wanted to see the written

schools, but insufficient roadways and sidewalks for the students. She stated
that this was not what the residents would want to see happen in their area.

Commission after the Council meeting to address this issue of "leap frog"
development as well as the transportation issues.

Department Director, appeared and explained the assessment to the developer,
stating that first a preliminary plat is filed and then a community facility
agreement would be signed by the developer prior to the final plat filing for the
roadway funding to ensure they are built and bonded.
Council Member Espino expressed appreciation to Ms. Demel and the
community for taking an active part in the zoning case and advised he was
sensitive to transportation concerns. He added his concerns with the density but
further stated that the developer had met all of the zoning requirements.
In response to Council Member Jordan's inquiry as to whether the City had a
traffic impact fee, Mr. Riley stated that the City currently does not have a traffic
impact fee. He further stated that City funds would be involved, which would
be through the use of Capital Improvement Program funding.
