Variations, Continued
The Conner-Jarvis project did ask for variations to road standards, to narrow roads within the subdivision and development design around streets. The Planning Commission made some recommendations along these lines.
(Narrower streets are generally considered to be more environmentally friendly because of reduced impervious surface.–Editor)
Jan. 15, 2016: Day 2 of the Sammamish City Council Retreat.
Connectivity
Greg Reynolds of Timberline advocated for opening the 42nd Street barricade for safety reasons to facilitate emergency service access. Reynolds pointed out police don’t have the equipment to open the barricade and fire and aid services have had trouble getting through the gate.
Town Center Update
There has been interest expressed for restaurants and potentially Swedish Medical in the complex under development by Metropolitan Market consortium. (This is the one on the Northwest corner of SE 4th and 228th.)
