Item 8: Public Hearing: CPA 09-001 Request fora Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the text of the Comprehensive Plan incorporating the Pathways Master Plan for Pathways Master Plan Text Amendment by City of Meridian Planning Department: Moe: At this time I'd like to open the public hearing on CPA 09-001 for Pathways Master Plan text amendment and start with staff and end with staff.

It was -- this request was initiated by the Parks and Rec's Commission. They initiated this and, basically, what they wanted to do is -- is proposing to, basically, incorporate by reference the Meridian Pathways Plan into the Comprehensive Plan. With the adoption of the Masters Pathways Plan, request revision to the city's Comprehensive Plan to maintain Meridian Planning & Zoning Meeting March 5, 2009 Page 30 of 33 consistency between the two documents. Some of the language that's currently in the Comprehensive Plan references outdated Parks and Rec Department documents. The request change is aligning the city's Comprehensive Plan with the updated documents, thereby paving the way for implementation of the pathways master plan. So, basically, what has happened is City Council adopted the Masters Pathways Plan back in 2007. That portion of that plan was part of Parks and Rec's documents, so they pulled that out and made it a separate document and now to many the Comprehensive Plan and the parks plan we have incorporated language to do that. That's pretty much a straight forward answer for you, so if you have any questions I will be happy to answer them. Moe: Any questions? Okay. Well, no questions. That just leaves a couple other things to be done. And we are in public hearing, so -- O'Brien: We are? Right? Moe: Yeah. O'Brien: Mr. Chairman, I recommend we close the public hearing on CPA 09-001.
