2. West Elizabeth Enhanced Travel Corridor
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
The West Elizabeth corridor is identified in the Transportation

Travel Corridors (ETCs) – uniquely designed corridors with an
emphasis on high-frequency transit, bicycling, and walking as
a way to support and manage growth.

Board Agenda
Planning and Zoning Board Page 2 October 13, 2016
The West Elizabeth ETC plan covers the area between
Overland Trail and Shields (as well as the CSU Foothills and
Main Campuses) and between Mulberry and Prospect. The
plan has a special focus on addressing existing deficiencies,
such as inadequate transit service for the area’s demands,
incomplete bike and pedestrian networks, and higher than
expected numbers of crashes in certain locations.
The project has developed recommended short- and long-
term improvements for the corridor, with the intent of
improving safety and functionality for all users. Key
improvements include transit system alignment and frequency
changes, bicycle and pedestrian facility improvements, and
intersection and lane configuration changes. The Planning &
Zoning Board is asked to make a recommendation to City
Council on whether the Plan should be formally adopted.

4. Landmark Apartments Expansion
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
This development plan proposes 68 apartment units (139
bedrooms) in 5 buildings on a 3.7-acre site in the SE quadrant
of the Prospect Road/Shields Street intersection. The site is a
panhandle-shaped infill property located between Landmark
Apartments and the historic Sheely Neighborhood. The
northern portion of the property is the “handle” of the pan and
abuts Prospect Road with 110 feet of frontage.
The property slopes down significantly from Prospect Road to
the 95-foot-wide Canal Importation Basin stormwater channel
which bisects the southern portion of the property, dividing the
property into two main parts. Hobbit Street terminates at the
west property line near the southwest corner of the property.
The owner of the subject property is the owner of the existing
Landmark Apartments to the west, and the proposed plan is
presented as an integrated addition to the existing complex,
with shared access to all facilities and grounds. 122 vehicle
spaces are proposed, slightly exceeding the requirement for
120 spaces.
Planning and Zoning Board Page 4 October 13, 2016
A Modification of a standard is requested to the standard
requirement that residences be placed directly in relation to
street sidewalks. The project provides a main walkway spine
along parking lot drives in lieu of extending a street into the
site.
