Monroe City Council approved the impact study regarding the placement of the new courthouse---and also aspects of downtown commerce. Click on the post for the full story in the Monroe Times.
The funds will come ultimately from TIF #7, but until it generates increment will come from the general fund.
This is an example of the growing trend for impact studies prior to development or change.
On October 2nd, the Evansville Planning Commission will be reviewing two ordinances, 2006-30 and 2006-31 that would mandate traffic impact studies. Citizens should plan on attending this meeting at City Hall. In the past, citizens just had the opportunity to complain afterwards. Now, with the impact studies that could be required, planning can take place to create an effective transportation plan.
October 2nd is the day that Evansville will consider such ordinances. There will be a public hearing for citizens to be heard. Be there.
