ITEM #1
DISCUSSION: SPECIAL STRATEGY CORRIDORS
One of the issues raised at the Planning Commissioner's Retreat in March concerned the appearance
of various corridors in our community. It was discussed that these corridors serve as gateways to
our community, and should reflect positively on our community. Those benefitting from this
positive corridor appearance would not only be our residents, but also the traveling public. It was
suggested that the County's planning and development tools be evaluated and improved to
strengthen the various corridors' appearance and function.
During initial discussions at the CPPS meeting on April 8, 2002, the CPPS indicated a number of
special strategy corridors for consideration that might include: Route 50 (East and West); Route 522
(North and South), Route 7; Route 277; Route 11 (North and South); Tasker Road; and Interstate
81. It is envisioned that once the corridors, or segments of corridors are identified, it may be
appropriate to develop goals and implementation strategies for improving the corridors' appearances.
Ultimately, this effort would be proposed for inclusion in the County's Comprehensive Policy Plan.
Staff will present additional information and lead discussions on the project.
