CONSIDERATION OF A PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR WYNN-WYNN ADDITION. (3724 CLASSEN BOULEVARD)
Body
BACKGROUND: This item is a preliminary plat for Wynn-Wynn Addition and is generally located one-quarter of a mile south of Cedar Lane Road on the west side of Classen Boulevard.

In total, this preliminary plat is expected to generate approximately 75 trips per day. The traffic capacity on the affected roadways exceeds the demand for existing and proposed trips as a result of this development. No negative traffic impacts are anticipated on these facilities.
See Table 1

The memorandum was completed by Traffic Engineering Consultants, Inc., and was received on December 18, 2020.
The study location is along the west side of Classen Boulevard and south of Cedar Lane Road. The proposal includes a single access location along Classen Boulevard.
