Evansville Planning Commisison: Amends Future Transportation Map; Affects West Main

The Evansville Planning Commission on Monday night voted to designate the following
  
streets under the Transportation Plan:

A. J. Lindemann--major collector (currently local)
B. Brown School Road--minor collector
C. Water Street--truck route
D. Exchange Street--truck route
E. Porter road: minor collector from 5th street to city limits
F. Main Street--minor collector from 4th street to city limits
G. Cemetary Road--- Future Collector

Mason Braunschweig indicated he was uncomfortable with making the Main street collector designation which would require some sidewalks installed at homeowner expense, when these homeowners might not have realized the impact of this action if they had seen notice of it at the Library.

There was considerable discussion about the fact that this should have been done in the initial planning, but in the final analysis, there has to be an east-west collector.
