Background/Discussion In response to direction from the FDA, staff has developed an ordinance amendment that would establish an Official Map for a road connection between the southern extension of Yale Court and 170"' Street. While two properties will be impacted with the proposed road alignment, only the vacant parcel is being official mapped. The attached Planning Commission staff report outlines the history associated with Focused Area Study (FAST),its impact on the subject area,background and procedural information on official maps. Planning Commission Comments Planning Commissioners were generally supportive of the official map. One commissioner questioned the curvature of the road. Another commissioner had concerns with this being the first official map and its implications on the eventual acquisition of the property. Public Hearing Comments Steve Rohlf, representing the owner, did not oppose the connection,but felt that the property is so damaged with the road as proposed that it amounted to inverse condemnation. He encouraged the city to purchase the property now, rather than wait on it for multiple years. Financial Impact The acquisition of the property will require compensation at negotiated fair market value.
