The Commission felt that the extension of School Street would reduce the <br />pressure on the CSAH 12/Main Street/Highway 169 intersection. They also felt that this <br />extension would alleviate the need to close Line Avenue or that it would make the closure of <br />Line Avenue more palatable. <br /> <br />The Commission also discussed the impact of the Commonweal development at the <br />southwest comer of Main Street and Highway 169. <br /> <br />The Commission then provided a weighted vote for the top four projects in order to provide <br />them a priority rank. The projects in priority order for recommendation to the Council <br />were: <br /> <br />Elk Hills Drive corridor study <br />193rd Avenue corridor study for easterly extension <br />Corridor study for School Street alignment west to Upland Avenue <br />County Road 44 (Meadowvale Road) reconstruction <br /> <br />Weighted score 19 <br />Weighted score 18 <br />Weighted score 13 <br />Weighted score 10 <br /> <br />4. Form Based Zoning <br /> <br />This item has been delayed to the April meeting. <br /> <br />5. <br /> <br />Set May Tour Date <br /> <br />The Commission discussed the merits of an out-of-the-city tour for May. The concern of <br />when the May fishing opener is scheduled was raised. The Commission agreed to consider <br />April 30 or May 7 as possible tour dates. Ms. McPherson indicated that she would utilize <br />email and check the fishing opener date and ask the Commission to review their calendars. <br />
