Chairperson Bauer stated that he would not think that expense would be of the developer. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that it is her understanding that if a development warrants a change to a major road, the developer is responsible to making the improvement. She explained that if the County required that improvement, the developer would be responsible. Chairperson Bauer commented that the issue already exists without this development present. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl explained that if the traffic levels are changing because of this development and the improvement is required to support the development, the developer would be responsible. Mr. Bebeau stated that he does not believe that the County would require the left turn lane. He recognized that if the right-in/right-out is approved/selected, he would be responsible for constructing the right turn lane. Commissioner VanScoy stated that the County traffic report has no discussion requiring left turn lanes and did not address the 146th intersection at all. Chairperson Bauer stated that the property is zoned R-2 and this is on the low end of the density that would be allowed. He agreed that the County should have input as to what is considered safe and what could/should be done. It was the consensus of the Commission that the applicant moves forward to the Preliminary Plat phase, addressing the concerns raised. 7.
