Committee authorizes two TIAs: Deming Way (Pearson Pumps) and Cynthia Street site
Summary
The committee authorized two traffic impact analyses (TIAs) — for Pearson Pumps on Deming Way and for a Cynthia Street facility — directing the city’s TIA consultant SRF to proceed once developers deposit funds to cover the studies.
The Middleton Public Works Committee on July 20 authorized two traffic impact analyses (TIAs): one for Pearson Pumps’ planned manufacturing facility on Deming Way and a second for a proposed facility on Cynthia Street.
Staff said the Deming Way proposal would be a relatively small TIA reflecting a modest number of peak‑hour trips as the company relocates manufacturing and office space to that site; the packet included a SRF proposal and a report from the city engineer. Staff recommended authorizing SRF to proceed once developer funds are deposited to pay for the study.
A committee member moved to authorize SRF to proceed with the Deming Way TIA pending deposit of developer funds; the motion was seconded and the committee approved the authorization. During discussion members asked whether adjacent driveways and specific parking lot drive aisles would be included in the scope; staff said SRF’s scope map focuses on intersections but suggested engineers could address driveway impacts as part of their evaluation.
For Cynthia Street, staff described the TIA request as smaller in scale and again recommended authorizing SRF to proceed after developers deposit funds. The committee moved, seconded, and approved the authorization.
Next steps: SRF will begin the TIA work after developers deposit funds; staff will follow up with engineers on scope questions raised by committee members.
