One member noted that three items on this agenda concerned developments which will greatly increase traffic volumes along 86th Street.. near llligtyway 169.

Commission members agreed that improving 86th Street North to four lanes at the earliest possible time should become a high priority for Owasso. COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING 7.

Considerable discussion followed. Mr. Hendrix estimated that a community could locate 85% of public parkland within floodplains. He said restricting private development in floodplains and locating parkland there will reduce potential population and property loss and will "turn a liability into an asset." Commission members decided to request the city manager to place this report on the council agenda for a presentation by Mr. Hendrix, A worksession was set for the September meeting to discuss refining this report into a potential recreation plan amendment to the Comprehensive Plan in order to indicate to future developers where Owasso wants to develop park systems, The city engineer and public works director will be invited to this worksession, There being no further business to consider for the evening, E. Stevens moved to adjourn. J. Simmons seconded the motion, Ale: L. George, E. Stevens, G. Phillips, M, Hinkle and J. Simmons. Nay: None, Motion carried 5-0-0.
