REPORT ITEMS 15.1 REPORT - MASTER PLAN FOR THE COURTHOUSE SQUARE REUNIFICATION PROJECT BACKGROUND: At the meeting on November 3, 2015, City Council approved basic design guidelines for Courthouse Square, approved the public outreach process for the interior of the square, and delegated City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report Page 7 of 8 City Council JANUARY 26, 2016 authority to the City Manager to select a consultant team to design the improvements associated with the reunification of Courthouse Square. City staff worked with the Chamber of Commerce to develop and implement a public outreach process for the design of the interior of the square. The City’s online survey regarding the reunification of Courthouse Square received over 2,000 comments. The first public outreach meeting was held on December 12, 2015. The project designer, Carlile Macy, used the comments from the public meeting, other comments provided to the City, and the online survey as well as the basic design guidelines to develop alternative conceptual plans for Courthouse Square. The alternative conceptual plans were presented at a second public meeting on January 9, 2016. Public comments received from members of the public who attended the community meetings have been posted on the project website srcity.org/CHS. In response to public input, the alternative plans were refined into two draft master plan options. An addendum to the Final Tiered Environmental Impact Report (FTEIR) has also been prepared to document the consistency of each master plan option with the FTEIR. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Transportation and Public Works Department that Council, by resolution, select an option and approve the Master Plan for the Courthouse Square Reunification Project.
