Ottawa planners eye dozens of future improvement projects
Ottawa planners reviewed a capital improvement plan through 2025 costing over 86 million dollars and agreed to continue discussions at the next study session. Interim city manager Wynndee Lee said the plan serves as a decision making tool and not a locked schedule requiring approval for each project. Public input at a Wednesday hearing was silent, with amendments to zoning on adult businesses and approval of the stormwater plan discussed, while concerns about runoff and health hazards were raised. A 15 foot street right of way and a 10 foot alley vacation were tabled for further consideration before the June 27 study session at City Hall.
