I'm running out the door, but I wanted to jot down some notes from the planning meeting today. Overall the project establishes zoning for mixed use commercial and residential.
The plan will go before the planning commission (may?) and ultimately council later this spring. It is a plan, not a proposed development, so it may not take shape in a meaningful way for decades.
I think the plan could bring a lot more destinations and value out of that area of town, and I'd think it would have a positive impact on property values, but…
The most disappointing thing is that they are not yet recommending any alternate consideration for the braker/duval exits as it relates to Domain, although other road improvements have been recommended. They gave a reason why a previously discussed suggestion of a connection of the braker exit to domain via a frontage overpass turned out not to be feasible from their perspective, I'm going to ask for that documentation.
Also they mentioned intention of CapMetro to do a circulator study when the plan was approved, I'll look for more information related to that.
