PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
(OCTOBER 2, 2008)
Walter Malone, Planning Staff, reviewed the area. Mr. Malone indicated that the
County Planner reported on the County Master Street Plan, Thibault Road is
shown as an Arterial with a 120 -foot right-of-way. This amendment would
change the City Classification to a Minor Arterial with a 90 -foot right-of-way.
Neither road (Frazier Pike and Thibault Road) is currently built to standard,
Collector or Arterial. Thibault Road has been improved some in recent months.
But both roads remain two-lane roads with little to no shoulder. By moving the
Arterial, it aligns better with the Interstate interchange and would be more
centered within the area it services. Mr. Monte Moore of the Planning Staff
presented the related item: G-23-403, R -O -W abandonment of a portion of
Frazier Pike. (See item 1.1 G2-403, for a full minutes). Several individuals
spoke in opposition to the abandonment.
A motion was made to approve the Master Street Plan amendment to relocate
the Minor Arterial classification for Frazier Pike to Thibault Road. By a vote of
10 for and 0 against the amendment was approved.
