Consider Development of the Southeast Quadrant of Armstrong Boulevard and Sunwood Drive

For several months, the development team has been considering the options for the realignment of Sunwood Drive at Armstrong Boulevard. As the HRA may recall, the ultimate design for the Armstrong Boulevard overpass precludes access to Sunwood Drive in its current alignment.  Several options for this quadrant have been considered and we have illustrated a preferred alignment on the current development plan.

The development team has received an offer to purchase a 1-2 acre portion of this site, and is hoping to respond in a timely fashion. In order to entertain this offer, the HRA must consider the proposed alignment and development options at this location and provide consensus direction on the preferred design. 

Attached to this case is the current Development Plan illustrating the proposed realignment of Sunwood Drive.

Items for discussion include:

• Realignment of Sunwood Drive
• Round-about configuration vs. intersection
• Timing of 'developers work' to facilitate sale of land
• Cost allocations for 'developers work'

The development team recommends the HRA consider the options for development of this quadrant and provide consensus direction as to a response to offers to purchase land.

 

Provide consensus direction as to the development options for the Southeast quadrant of Sunwood Drive and Armstrong Boulevard.
