South B <br />Regular <br />Redevelopment Commission <br />eting — August 28, 2012 <br />2. NEW 13USINESS <br />A. South Side Development Area <br />(1 continued... <br />Option A does address the primary issue of <br />additional traffic from U.S. 31, corrects the <br />substandard intersections at Teri, Barbie and <br />Chippewa, has the opportunity to fix the <br />drainage problems on Fellows and <br />Chippewa, eliminates on street parking on <br />Chippewa and Fellows, and requires the <br />acquisition. of 30 properties. It is, however, <br />90% designed. <br />Options B1 through B3 look.very similar. <br />Each of them uses the route of Fellows to a <br />reconfigured Walter through O'Brien <br />property to a reconfigured Barbie.

The slight differences <br />between the B options are at the substandard <br />intersections of Teri, Barbie and Chippewa, <br />intended to improve one or more of those <br />intersections. B2 doesn't address the Teri <br />intersection; however, again, a stop sign <br />could be used to alleviate the issues there. <br />The Option B configurations would reduce <br />Fellows Street traffic, making it more of a <br />residential street. On- street parking would be <br />made available. Chippewa would continue to <br />have on- street parking, though the reduced <br />traffic on Chippewa would minimize the <br />obstruction -of- vision problems the parking <br />causes. Options B allow. the :city to address <br />drainage problems in the'neighhorhood while <br />making improvements to�Fellows and Barbie. <br />It does require the use of park owned <br />property to build the road. B 1 and B2 <br />acquire the acquisition of 12 properties and <br />7 <br />
