The Applicant is now proposing to amend the Development Agreement to allow for the construction of
fhe four eight-plexes prior to widening of Ten Mile and the construction of the Pine/Ten Mile
Intersection. ~One of the main concerns regarding this project in 2004 was the traffic that would be
contributing to the already congested Pine/Ten Mile intersection. ACHD is in the process of completing
the interim changes (temporary signal and left turn lanes) to the Franklin/Ten Mile intersection scheduled
for completion mid-July. ACHD also added two left turn lanes: one from Ten Mile to Pine and the other
from Pine to Ten Mile to help alleviate congestion at that intersection. Staff contacted ACHD for tra~c
count information and was informed the last traffic count (conducted in 200~ for Pine Avenue, east of
Ten Mile, generated approximately 4,132 trips and is curnenfly operating at an acceptable level of service.
Elevations: Yes
Staff Recommendation; approval; However, the subject lots proposed for the future 8-plex buildings have
not been final platted. Staff is recommending an additional provision be added to the DA for this property
that requires a final plat be recorded prior to occupancy of the first 8-plex building.
