The Boardman City
Council continued hearings
Tuesday night, from June
19th, to consider adoption
of the proposed Interchange
Area Management Plan
(IAMP) and a Transporta­
tion System Plan (TSP)
Update. The City’s trans­
portation consultant, Carl
Springer of DKS Associ­
ates, prepared the final draft
proposals of the IAMP and
the TSP. The goal of the
plans are to develop an
IAMP for the interchanges
of 1-84 at Main Street and
Laurel Lane to establish
corrective measures which
would ensure safe and ef­
ficient traffic movement of
the interchange areas over
a 20-year period. With an
IAMP in place the City will
also establish eligibility for
state funding of future street
projects. Several property
ow ners, businesses, and oth­
er interested parties attended
Tuesday’s meeting to testify
as to the effect the plans may
have on the community.
Many had concerns of busi­
nesses being threatened by
cutting off access to Front
Street. Alternative sugges­
tions included widening the
overpass at exit 164 and the
off ramps and/or lengthen­
ing the offramps.
Although Council­
ors did not adopt these draft
plans as presented, they
felt they were a good start
on creating the final plans.
Both hearings were con­
tinued indefinitely until the
City, along with officials
from the Oregon Depart­
ment of Transportation, the
Department of Land Conser­
vation Development, and the
public hav e held a workshop
to “tweak" the current draft
plans. A workshop date w ill
be set during the August 21 st
Council meeting.
In other City news,
the Council adopted an Or­
dinance rezoning 76 acres
from Future Urban to Resi­
dential, where a developer
plans a residential subdivi­
sion. An Ordinance was
adopted concerning park­
ing semi-tractor trailer in
residential zones. The Coun­
cil also adopted language
changes to the Municipal
Code pertaining to side­
walks and motor trucks. The
next regularly scheduled
meeting of the Boardman
City Council is Tuesday,
August 21,2007 at 7 p.m. at
Boardman City Hall.
