tyof Ilk River MEMORANDUM TO: STEERING COMMITTEE ii FROM: STEVEN B. ACH, CITY PLANNE11,< �2' DATE: SEPTEMBER 22, 1994 As mentioned at the last Steering Committee meeting, City Engineer Terry Maurer will be present at Thursday night's meeting to discuss two important topics: • TRANSPORTATION • CITY SEWER AND WATER Both of these issues relate closely with the zoning and land use plan map and all four (transportation, utilities, zoning, and land use) tie together for the • purposes of long range planning. For example, future areas to be serviced with City utilities will require the appropriate land use and zoning designation along with the plans for necessary road improvements to accommodate the anticipated growth. Essentially, land use, transportation, and utilities are dependent upon another and if one is modified, the others must follow in line. I would encourage everyone to bring their transportation plan in case there are items Terry Maurer refers to during his presentation. In addition, I've enclosed a draft copy of the east trunk Highway 10 feasibility study. The study basically examines extending City water and sewer east along Highway 10. This corridor has been identified by the City Council to provide additional commercial, industrial, and residential opportunities to accommodate future growth needs. Besides this east Highway 10 corridor, the Steering Committee may also wish to discuss other areas of the community that should be considered for future utility extension. In closing, if any Committee members have questions prior to the meeting, please feel free to contact me at 441-4902. Also, if you are unable to attend the meeting Thursday, please contact me in advance. I look forward to seeing all of you Thursday night when I'm certain we will have a healthy discussion on these two important topics. P.O.
