Bellevue Ranch Master Development Plan (MDP) Table 6.1
Major Infrastructure Phasing
(Revised & Adopted by City Council on June 21, 2004)
(Revision & Adopted by Planning Staff on August 17, 2005) (Revision & Adopted by Planning Commission on June 18, 2008) (Revision to be presented to Planning Commission and City Council Fall of 2023)
The following table shows the same circulation and major infrastructure improvements listed in the MDP Table new columns have been added to show the village interior improvements as well as concurrent construction phasing. 6.1,adopted by the City Council May 15, 1995, in the columns for contiguous and non-contiguous improvements. Two This table indicates when certain improvements are warranted by Sub-Phase development. It does not address funding sources or the timing of available funding. In general, each Developer shall be responsible for construction of the warranted improvements, with the exception of wells, which the City will construct.

The Sub-Phases have been reorganized to show the order in which the Villages are now expected to be developed by adopted Table 6.1 shall be maintained except as noted. MDP Villages 6, 11, 13 and 19 have been excluded from this Crosswinds and Woodside, for the area south of Bellevue Road. North of Bellevue Road the order shown in the proposed sequence due to floodplain constraints.
by Notes #1 and #2. These notes referred to recommended improvements of the Fehr & Peers memorandum of 12- The "Clarification Revision" of August 2008 to the 6-18-08 version of Table 6.1 clarifies inconsistencies presented 2-04. The notes stated that certain improvements were "revised" as recommended in said traffic report. However, the text within Table 6.1 did not reflect those changes. To view these referenced changes, one needs to look at Table 6 of the 12-2-04 memorandum. The August 2008 Table 6.1 presented here reconciles the inconsistencies by showing where modification to text in Table 6.1 would have to be made in order to be consistent with Staff accepted portions of Table 6 of the 12-2-04 memorandum.

NOTE: Table 6.1 was not officially amended to include these "clarifications." This document is prepared to show Staff's interpretation and affect of the 12-2-08 traffic study.
