Developers are ready to go with the first phase of the project and would like to begin work on four buildings and on 2nd East street. We make the final decision, said Mayor Robert Steele, but we take the recommendation of the city planning and zoning commission. He would talk to the chairman, Glenn Greenhalgh, but developers were advised they must work closely with the planning and zoning commission. If you work closely with them, and meet the requirements, we should have a recommendation from them by December 20, said Steele. Brent Thompson, Executive Officer of Old Orchard Condominiums, and Lyman Rowley, General Manager, attended Nephi City Council meeting on Tuesday to ask for consideration for the project, to answer questions and to further explain the project. Our number one concern was the roadway. We have crews and everything ready to go, said Rowley. A recent public hearing was held to discuss the project. The city planning and zoning commission held a joint public hearing with the council to explain the project and receive comments from interested citizens. At the hearing, citizens expressed concern over density of units and traffic flows into and out of the development located west of 2nd East and south of 7th South on 10.89 acres. Many citizens said they were concerned about the traffic dumping onto the narrow roadway at 7th South. Is there any way to push the wheels of the city along so we could begin the first phase ofthe project? asked Rowley. He said the 7th South street, one of the narrowest in Nephi, was adequate to handle the first phase of the project. We removed one building because it seemed cramped, said Rowley. More room was placed between the buildings and another park was planned into the project, he said. Shrubs, greenery, and landscaping are all part of the project. We have added in more shrubs.
