Committee tables minutes after members request clearer wording on rotary alternatives

During a procedural item at the start of the July 9 meeting, a member moved then withdrew a motion to approve the minutes of the June 25 meeting after raising concerns that the draft minutes compress distinct parts of the charrette discussion and do not clearly reflect the committee’s feedback about the rotary alignments and DOT representations. The member asked for the minutes to explicitly note the committee’s discussion about which alternative positions the ramps and how that affects MCI land optimization.

Committee members agreed that the minutes should be revised to separate the presentation’s summary from the charrette feedback, call out Alyssa Sandoval’s presentation and insert clearer language describing the rotary alternative that positions the ramp farther left to maximize land for MCI. Staff were asked to accept comments and circulate a revised draft before the next meeting.

No formal vote on the minutes was recorded in the transcript; the approval was effectively tabled while staff incorporate edits.
