Overview

In order to achieve the vision for the area encompassed by the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan and Landmark/Van Dorn Corridor Plan, a number of studies and analyses are needed to initiate implementation. Since the two plan areas overlap and share dependency on planned infrastructure, looking at the phasing and funding of both plans in concert will provide necessary coordination and efficient use of resources. The projects recommended for this coordinated implementation effort are listed in this document.

Ad Hoc Eisenhower West/Landmark Van Dorn Implementation Advisory Group

On March 29, 2016 the City Council established an Ad Hoc Eisenhower West/Landmark Van Dorn Implementation Advisory Group through Resolution 2717. The mission of this group is to provide guidance to staff on the infrastructure and funding plans and related follow up studies as outlined in the Eisenhower West Small Area Plan and the Landmark Van Dorn Corridor Plan.

Solicitation for Applications for the Advisory Group was open from April 11 - May 2, 2016. As specified by the Resolution, the City Manager appointed the nine at-large members  through the nomination process, and the Boards and Commissions named their representatives for the remaining five slots. Advisory Group meetings will be held on an as-needed basis. All activities and meetings by the Advisory Group will be open to the public.

The Advisory Group consists of fourteen members representing a diversity of interest in the plan areas, with experience in areas of importance to the Plans:

• Mindy Lyle, Chair (Planning Commission)
