City Council Meeting Minutes August 16,2005 Page 4 of 11 The Framework Map was also revised to reflect the location of the Davidson Mesa Ridgeline. Opportunity Area # 7 The Framework Plan was modified to reflect that portion of the Gateway Subdivision west of McCaslin would be designated 'City Preservation', and east of McCaslin was modified to reflect Low Density Residential. Two corresponding policy statements were added, which discuss those designations. Residential Phasing The Implementation Chapter (Chapter 4) of the Comprehensive Plan Update discusses the importance of phasing residential development. It provides a statement and implementation criteria to direct the implementation of a residential phasing policy. The statement closely parallels the policy direction, which was adopted initially in 1993 by Resolution No. 36, Series 1993. As required by the resolution, Council reviewed permit activity on an annual basis for compliance with the goals statements provided in the resolution. Staff has prepared a draft phasing resolution, which provides Council findings for adoption of the Citywide Comprehensive Plan Update. COUNCIL COMMENT Council member Marsella commended Planning Director Wood and his staff for the compilation of Council consensus on revisions into the Comprehensive Plan. Mayor Sisk requested public comment. Billy O'Donnell, 247 Hoover Court, Louisville, CO asked whether it would be appropriate for the Comprehensive Plan projected population number to be put on the ballot and voted on by the people. John Leary, 1116 La Farge Avenue, Louisville, CO voiced his disagreement with the proposed Comprehensive Plan's fiscal analysis. He discussed the Comp Plan's use by right issues. He addressed the draft phasing resolution for the Comp Plan and offered several suggestions for revisions. He voiced his concern over the newspaper articles, which mislead the public. Richard Lopez, 4450 Arapahoe, Boulder, CO representing the Hoyle Family Trust, voiced his concern over new language which affects the Hoyle property. He stated the specificity of the language is not appropriate for a comprehensive plan document. He noted the Court has ruled the Hoyle's have a right to annex their enclave property to the City of Louisville. He urged Council to delete the new language from the plan. He also addressed open enrollment in the Boulder Valley School District.
