preferred traffic movements, such
as the existing ‘slip’ lane from
Fordham Boulevard into Rams
Plaza as a substitute for the
current left-turn movement from

improvements are incorporated. Existing
streets with limited or no improvements
will need bike/ped improvements made in
the future.

plan the improvements.
33. How do we allow development to occur in this district
when it is prone to flooding?
34. 1.
Manage Stormwater as a district. Develop a Municipal Service District to fund
maintenance, collect only minimum of $50,000.
2.
Any site that turns dirt, pays initial fee for future capital for stormwater.
3.
We provide approximately $1.2 million for district stormwater improvements. Water
quality and quantity management.
4.
If singular sites increase impervious surface, a separate evaluation would take
place to determine impact and improvements to be made by the developer.
5.
We have also requested $700,000 from MPO to fund connections between
Eastgate and Village Plaza across the proposed Best Management Practice
(BMP).
