. Minutes - Plan Commission Page 5 September 28, 1988 . proposed Olive Boulevard Central Plan was in conformance with the 1986 University City Comprehensive Plan. She further explained that the development and redevelopment goals for the proposed TIF district were detailed on page 12 of the Plan. She welcomed questions or comments from Commission members. Mr. Washington asked why the TIF Commission had prioritized this central section of Olive Boulevard (7300 through 7900 blocks) when other sections of Olive are in need of attention. Ms. Fahey replied that this central section of Olive had the most vacant buildings and had the most immediate potential for parcel assemblage. She continued by saying that other development strategies were being considered for use on Olive, such as special business districts. Ms. Fahey replied to a question by Mr. Safe that the proposed Dubbles Hamburgers at 7290 Olive would not be included in the district. Chairman McCauley noted that both the proposed TIF Plan and the Comprehensive Plan called for an increased amount of planting along the Olive Boulevard frontage. However, Mr. Rice believed that the TIF Plan did not emphasize strongly enough the need for sidewalks and pedestrian accommodation along Olive Boulevard and, therefore, did not totally conform with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Kreishman believed that evidence of TIF Plan's conformance with the Comprehensive Plan was somewhat conclusory; however, Chairman McCauley pointed out that nothing in the proposed TIF Plan conflicted with the Comprehensive Plan. After some further discussion, Mr. Marsh moved that the Plan Commission forward the proposed Olive Boulevard Central Tax Increment Finance District Redevelopment Plan to the City Council with the following Resolution: WHEREAS, on August 15, 1988, the City Council of University City referred the proposed Olive Boulevard Central Tax Increment Finance District Redevelopmenl Plan to the City Plan Commission for its review for conformance with the 1986 Comprehensive Plan for the City of University City, Missouri; and WHEREAS, at its regular meetings on August 24, 1988, and September 28, 1988, the City Plan Commission did review the proposed Redevelopment Plan in combination with the 1986 Comprehensive Plan.
