City Council to discuss Lincoln Way corridor
February 16, 2016
The Ames City Council will have a meeting Tuesday to discuss the Lincoln Way corridor plan study and the Downtown Housing Study Project Committee.
The meeting will take place at 6 p.m. in the Ames City Hall.
After the call to order, the council members plan to first discuss the Lincoln Way corridor plan study. The council will facilitate a discussion with the project’s consultants, Houseal Lavigne Associates, in order to determine the needed improvements on Lincoln Way, according to the council documents.
In the discussion, the consultants and council will determine five issues on Lincoln Way, as well as three specific projects they wish to undertake in that area.
The City Council will also vote to appoint Council Member Gloria Betcher, Ward 1, onto the Downtown Housing Study Project committee.
“This project focused on assessing the potential for mixed use housing and amenities to bring young professionals to downtown Ames,” according to Betcher’s letter to the council regarding the appointment.
