Re: Troutner Park Road Vacation
Dear Mayor DeWeerd:
I am writing you this letter in the hopes that you and the members of the Meridian City
Council can correct what I believe to be a significant error. On January 20, 2004, the
Council held a public hearing on the vacation of a portion of Penn wood Drive and all 0 f
SW 3rd in Phase II of Troutner Park Subdivision. The vote on the vacation issue was a tie
and you voted to break the tie and require Troutner Business Park to build SW 3rd
Avenue to the south. In the vote on the Preliminary Plat of the Troutner replatting, the
council voted to,
".. . approve preliminary plat 03-034, the request for prefuninary plat approval for the
replat of Troutner Park Subdivision,... to include staff comments, with the conditions that
applicant may comply with the preliminary plat as submitted if ACHD concurs with the
applicant and vacates the stub street to the south ofPelJDwood to connect to the 9OUthero
boundary property or if ACHD... concurs with this Council's decision for a stub street to
the south, that stub street to the 9Outh of Penn wood can be located anywhere along
Pennwood connecting to the southern boundary, pursuant to whatever ACHD staff
conditions are available..."
The council vote for this motion was unanimous in support. It is clear to me that the
Council's intent with the second motion was to leave the decision of the eJctension ofSW
3m to the south to ACHD. Unfortunately, the two votes caused some confusion.
I therefore request that the Council direct City staff to communicate to ACHD that the
Council is not requiring the eJctension ofSW 3.0 to the south.
