WI�RKSHOP, TRA��'IC STUDY UPDATE The next order of business was for the City Council and Planning & Zoning Canmission to conduct a workshop session with Freese & Nichols consulting engineers relative to the traffic study update and take any necessary action. Public Works Director Jim Baddaker reviewed the status of the traffic study. He noted that the co�mercial/industrial traffic at buildout (proposed in the year 2027) appeared to clog the thoroughfare system. A meeting had been held with the North Central Texas Council of Governments and the State Highway Departrnent regarding the assiunptions used to obtain the buildout figures in the camputer model. Mr. Mike S�nith, Mr. Mark Nlendez, and Mr. Tony Reid of Freese & Nichols engineers then gave a lengthy presentation regarding the traffic study. This included a review of a map detailing the peak traffic volLUnes proposed at buildout and a map indicating thoroughfare widths needed to acccam�odate those traffic volumes. A lengthy discussion ensued, during which it was noted that there was an apparent overload of proposed cce�mercial/industrial develognent campared to residential develognerit. The effect of the airport on the thoroughfare and land use plans was also discussed. The consultants then requested clarification of the asslunptions and alternatives directed by the Council in order to prepare a mpre realistic study of the future thoroughfare needs of the City. Possibilities of alternatives included (1) modification of densities and floor area ratios, (2) modification of trip generation figures by land use districts, (3) changing the buildout year frcgn its current est�mate of 2027, (4) changing the buildout percentage fran 100 percent to a more realistic 80 or 90 percent, and (5) , asstuning use of alternate methods of mass transit. , Consideration of more reasonable assumptions in canpili.ng the report was supported, as the results of the traffic study were to form the basis of the proposed traffic impact fee. Although no formal action was taken by the City Council, the general concensus agreed that the consultants were authorized to prepare a preliminary draft using a more realistic model and return for additional Council consideration. No specific alternatives for modification were noted..
