Traffic Commission 6801 Delmar Boulevard, University City, Missouri 63130, Phone: (314) 862-6767, Fax: (314) 863-9146 3. FYI - Proposed Redevelopment at the South East Quadrant of Delcrest Drive (West) at Delmar Boulevard Please find attached memorandum dated July 1, 2011, submitted by Crawford, Bunte, Brammeier (CBB) on behalf of Principal Commercial Real Estate, which summarizes the preliminary findings of the traffic impact study for the proposed redevelopment site on the southeast corner of Delmar and Delcrest (West). The proposed redevelopment would consist of a 14,820 square foot pharmacy with drive-thru and the replacement of an existing 30,000 square foot office building with a new 30,000 square foot office building. In addition, the project proposes replacing an existing, mid-block, signalized pedestrian crossing, currently located about 50 feet west of Delcrest Drive (West), with a new traffic signal at the Delcrest Drive (West)/Delmar Boulevard intersection. Public Works staff provided a letter to CBB (attached) on July 8, 2011 in response to the two memoranda submitted to the City on June 22, 2011 and July 1, 2011. It is the Public Works Department understands that this proposal will not be final until written confirmation has been received from St. Louis County Department of Highways and Traffic that the new traffic signal will in fact be warranted. Additional requirements may be included in the County’s review, which may require another review by Public Works. This redevelopment proposal was discussed at the June 22 Plan Commission meeting. Among the list of the conditional use permit requirements that the plan commissioners approved at this meeting was the requirement that the Traffic Commission’s review comments on the proposed traffic signal and related changes be addressed. The above-mentioned public works staff review and comments are intended to assist this process. If necessary, an August 10, 2011 meeting will be requested to submit a final recommendation to the City Council. 4.
