GENERAL PLAN 2035 GROWING GOODYEAR, PLANNING OUR FUTURE
Chairman Kish opened the public hearing at 6:02 pm.
Senior Planner Guadalupe Ortiz Cortez introduced Matt Klyszeiko with Michael Baker Intl. Mr. Klyszeiko gave a brief presentation focusing on the project process and progress, community outreach, fundamental strategies, chapter components, land use, and the comments and responses received.
Commission expressed appreciation for the Gila River being included in the recreation portion of the General Plan.
Commission asked if there was a mechanism in the General Plan that would be able to use as action items in the future. Mr. Klyszeiko explained that the General Plan does not get too granular with specific neighborhoods however there was discussion with some HOAs through the General Plan update, and their comments were incorporated into the plan. The action portion of the General Plan touches on continuing to survey the community but may not be able to get too granular for particular communities.
Commission commented on the involvement of the city with the various HOAs. Mr. Klyszeiko stated that through their public outreach, they attended a few virtual meetings for the HOAs and those meetings could be an opportunity for collaboration.
Commission discussed whether it would be possible for the goals from the General Plan to be integrated into the items that come before the Commission. Mr. Klyszeiko explained that staff would be able to address this request but as part of the update, there will be a digital General Plan that would be easier to navigate.
Commission discussed the General Plan Committee and the challenges that the Committee faced.
Resident Jeff Redman asked for clarification on road alignments and freeway alignments, specifically the loop 303 and I-11. Mr. Klyszeiko explained that all future freeway alignments depicted on the Land Use and Circulation Plan are based on current ADOT plans. Any changes would be done through ADOT and will be adjusted as updates are received by the city.
There being no further public comment, Chairman Kish closed the public hearing at 6:36.
