To;Planning Commission Members <br />From:Ron Moorse, City Administrator and 1Greg Gappa, Public Services Director <br />Date:March 31,1997 <br />Subject:Spring Hill Golf Course Access <br />/ <br />The current access to the Spring Hill property is directly off County Road 6. The access proposed <br />for the Spring Hill Golf Course is from Spring Hill Road. The question whether using Spring Hill <br />Road as the access to the golf course is a good solution is an important issue to be addressed in the <br />development review process. The following is an analysis of the two access alternatives. <br />A.County Road 6 Access <br />1. Advantages <br />a.) Keeps the majority of traffic related to a commercial type use on a <br />major arterial roadway versus on a residential roadway. <br />2.Disadvantages <br />a.) Golf course traffic coming from the south on East Long Lake Road <br />and Spring Hill Road would need to turn left onto County Road 6 <br />then turn left from County Road 6 into the golf course. Requiring <br />two left turns ia.conflict with traffic on a major arterial is not a <br />prefened solution in terms of traffic safety. <br />B.Spring Hill Road access <br />1. Advantages <br />a.) Enables traffic from the south to enter the golf course without the <br />need to use County Road 6. <br />b.)The ingress and egress movements onto and off of County Road 6 <br />from the golf course and from residential traffic on Hunter Drive and <br />Sprin g Hill Road can be combined, creating one intersection with left <br />turn lanes versus creating two similar intersections on County Road <br />6. <br />2.Disadvantages <br />a.) Requires traffic related to a commercial type use to use a residential <br />roadway. <br />1 <br />■TTM- ■■
