FINANCIAL IMPACT Adoption of this resolution does not create the need for capital investment. Roadway construction and improvements will occur as property is developed. At that time developers and the City,through the Street Oversizing Program, will share the capital investment. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Master Street Plan is a map-based plan identifying the major transportation network within the Growth Management Area. The Plan was developed using the City Structure Plan as the basic urban form projected to the year 2025. The Structure Plan projects density,transit service,activity centers, and mixed-use corridors. This information is used to predict travel behavior and the demand for transportation infrastructure. The Master Street Plan is the map of that infrastructure. The Master Street Plan was last amended on March 2,2004 with the adoption ofthe Transportation Master Plan. A recent staff assessment of the Master Street Plan has determined that there are numerous"Clean Up" items that need to be amended through the Minor Amendment process. BACKGROUND The following is a list of the proposed minor amendments and clean-up edits for the Master Street Plan. These changes reflect existing "as-built" conditions and map revisions such as street name corrections. These proposed Master Street Plan changes have been reviewed and agreed upon by the City's Planning and Zoning Board and the Transportation Board. The Transportation Board made a formal recommendation at its November meeting to request City Council's approval of these proposed changes.

ATTACHMENT 2 City, ofFort Collins Transportation Board Can l'hnma�, (:hair OAIIIM City of Fort Collins December 3, 2007 Recommended Minor Amendments to the Master Street Plan Dear Mayor and City Council Members: On November 28, 2007 the Fort Collins Transportation Board heard a presentation b Burt P P Y Ravenschlag of the city Transportation Planning Department. Mr. Ravenschlag presented a list of 14 proposed minor amendments to the Master Street Plan of the city. Most were of the nature of reclassifications of existing roads to match the "as built' nature of the road. Other changes reflected the impact of existing decisions such as the abandonment of an extension of Overland Trail south from Drake that in turn eliminates the need for a section from Horsetooth to Harmony. None of the changes will result in modifications to any existing roads. The Transportation Board concluded that all the proposed changes are appropriate and voted unanimously to recommend adoption of the amendments. Please contact me if any questions regarding this recommendation. Best regards, Gary D.
