Authorization
REQUEST: Public Works Department Requesting Commission Approval of the Second
Reading of Ordinance No. 636 Amending Chapter 9 of the Code of Ordinances
to Provide for Rustic Residential Collector Road Standards in Areas of the City
Designated in the Comprehensive Plan with an Underlying Rustic Residential
Land Use
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Board item is to request Commission Approval of the Second
Reading of Ordinance No. 636 Amending Chapter 9 of the Code of Ordinances by
Amending Sections 9-147(a) and 9-147(b) and 9-296, Providing for Rustic
Residential Collector Road Standards in areas of the City with an Underlying Rustic
Residential Land Use.
CONSIDERATIONS:
This ordinance is needed to provide collector road standards for rustic residential
areas that maintain the rustic character of the neighborhoods and still provide for the needs of
vehicular, pedestrian, equestrian and bicycle traffic. The first reading was approved at the
November 11, 1996 City Commission meeting.
The Traffic Circulation Element of the Comprehensive Plan includes improvements to
specific collector roads in the rustic residential area known as the Ranchlands. The right of
way widths on these roads are 50 feet, 66 feet or 80 feet. The collector roads which are
curreutly under design for drainage and paving improvements are Moss Road south to
Panama Road, Hayes Road south to Bahama Road, and Panama Road from Moss Road to
Edgemon Avenue. A workshop was held on August 5, 1996 to review the proposed design

with the Commission and residents. The directive from that workshop was to come back
with collector road standards that accommodated the rural character and deleted the
traditional urban design features for each of the three right of way widths.
After several meetings with our consultant, these proposed standards were presented
to the public on October 7, 1996. Only eight residents attended (probably due to the
inclement weather) and all were generally in favor of these minimum standards. The
proposed standards were unanimously approved by P & Z on November 6, 1996.
All three proposed cross sections have at least one 8 foot recreation trail with the 66
foot and 80 foot right of ways having two 8 foot trails. The right of way widths for the roads
currently under design are Moss Road - 80', Hayes Road 66', and Panama Road 50'.
ISSUE ANALYSIS:
The Traffic Circulation Element of the Comprehensive Plan identifies improvements
to the collector road system to maintain traffic circulation throughout the City. Included in
the roadway network are collector roads in the Ranchlands, a rustic residential area. The
current collector road construction standards in the code of ordinances are an urban design
with sidewalks and curb and gutter drainage systems. They also do not address the existing
deviations in right of way width. The proposed standards will allow the rural characteristics
to be maintained, accommodate a swale drainage design, and provide a recreational trail on at
least one side of the road.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Commission approve the Second Reading of Ordinance No.
amending Chapter 9 of the Code of Ordinances by amending Sections 9-147(a) and 9-147(b) and 9-
296, providing for Rustic Residential Collector Road Standards for Areas designated in the
Comprehensive Plan to have an underlying Rustic Residential Land Use.
