Background and Analysis:
On February 28, 2017, the City Council completed screening of the preliminary comprehensive plan amendment applications received for 2017. Each of the four proposals were approved for additional review and consideration, which becomes the final docket for the year. The proponents had until April 3, 2017 to submit the formal applications.
The four proposals moving forward in 2017 include:
* The Bentridge Village redesignation and rezone. This is the property often referred to as "LBA Woods" and was recently purchased by the City of Olympia.
* A series of amendments to the Transportation 2030 and Bicycle Network maps proposed by the City of Olympia Public Works Department.
* A Transportation 2030 Map amendment proposed by the South Capitol Neighborhood Association. The request is to remove the major collector designation on Maple Park Avenue between Capitol Way and Jefferson Street.
* A proposal to redesignate and rezone approximately 8.5 acres of land that was recently annexed into the City at the southeast corner of Yelm Highway and Henderson Boulevard. The proposal consists of four parcels, including the site where Tsuki Nursery was located.
