Statement of legislative intent: The City's 19991and use component of the Comprehensive Plan calls for
refining corridor planning studies to insure that any amendments to the zoning code resulting from conidor
studies conform with the Comprehensive Plan. Studies of various City corridors have recently taken place in
keeping with the City's strong tradition of corridor planning.
In 1999 and 2000, the Planning Commission coordinated a planning study for the Phalen Corridor, resulting
in the Phalen Corridor Development Strategy, which was adopted by the City Council on Apri14, 2001.
The Planning Commission and the City Council also reviewed and adopted the amendments to the PhaZen
Corridor Development Strategy for the Westminster Junction and Middle Section areas of the Corridor.
19 Plans for these areas were prepared as construction of Phalen Boulevard proceeded, so that controls over land
20 contemplated for development would be in place once road construction was completed.
