CALL TO ORDER. The special meeting of the City Planning and Zoning Commission was called to order by Chairman Woods at 8:25 P.M. Members present: Carlson; Lentsch; Lone; Parkinson; Woods Romans, Ex-officio Members absent: Touchton II. COLUMBINE FREEWAY. Mr. Woods stated that the Planning Commission has been studying the proposed Columbine Free- way since it first came under consideration several years ago, and that it is his understanding that the City Council had indicated at their last meeting that they would like a recommendGr- tion from the Planning Commission as to the recommended location of the proposed Columbine Freeway. Mr. Lone questioned whether or not the City should discuss the matter with the "people involved" in the area, and mentioned the committee studying the proposal from the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Woods noted that Mr. Lentsch had also suggested meeting with the Chamber of Commerce com- mittee. Mr. Lone noted that he felt we might present a more unified decision by including these com- mittee members. He stated that he knew that not everyone would agree on one route, but he didn't want to see several "factions" with different opinions present to the City Council. Mr. Touchton entered and took his place with the Commission. Mr. Lentsch commented that he felt the City should hear the committee of the Chamber; he noted that they have gone into extensive study on the matter. Mr. Lone commented that he felt a recommendation made by the Planning Commission at this time would be premature. Further discussion followed. The possibility of taking a citizen poll was discussed. Mr. Lone pointed out that the actual construction of the Columbine Freeway is a long time off, and that he felt we should get the thoughts of the people affected, con- sider their opinions, and then make our recommendation. Mr. Touchton pointed out that the Planning Commission has, on several occasions, heard presentations by the advocates of the western route, and by advocates of the eastern route, and that the Commission has studied ihe report prepared for the State Highway Department by Meurer, Serafini & Meurer, and he questioned that any one would be more qualified to make a recommendation right now than the Planning Commission. Mr. Carlson asked if we had received a formal request from the City Council to make a recom- mendation? Mr. Parkinson replied that he had stated to the Council, upon their query as to what the Planni~g ?ommission had done in regard to the Freeway, that he would bring the point before the Comm1ss1on. Mr. Lone commented that we should communicate to City Council that we are trying to gather information from all interested groups and that w -11 . the information at a future meeting. , e w1 consider I I I
