Now that the lull of the Holiday season is over City business has begun to accelerate with plenty of new projects coming down the pipeline. First of all we will be updating the General Plan to include changes to the Hunter Town Center. This is the new name of the blocks immediately surrounding the intersection of 5600 West and 3500 South. The master plan of this area includes a pedestrian friendly design, transit oriented development, and a variety of commercial and residential additions. Although the realization of this plan may take years, it is beneficial to get the plan ironed out and officially adopted so we can move forward and work to make it a reality. Thanks go out to the many residents that have offered input and suggestion to the layout of this proposal. Also tonight the Council voted to approve funding for streetlight additions and improvements along the recently completed section of 3500 South. This will add to the character and overall safety of the main boulevard that runs the length of our City. Also, the City will also be using some federal funds to complete a safe routes to school sidewalk along the north part of 5400 West. The construction won't begin for awhile, but the last of the legal work has been completed and we will continue to look for additional way to reinvest in our community.
