At the request of the Public Lands Department, the Planning Division is requesting that you initiate
an amendment to the North Temple Boulevard Plan (NFBP) to remove the policies related to
relocating Madsen Park The NTBP recommends relocating the pukto a more central location
within the Eudid neighborhood. However, the community has indicated that there is a preference to
maintain Madsen Park at the curreut ]oration and improve the park to help provide open space for
the increase in density along North Temple. This proposed modification is supported by Public Lands
and the Plane' n D—on. The process will be coordinated between both entities and the
community. In addition, the Plane' a Division—ld also like to modify termiuologywithin the
NTBP by deleting the word "master" from the plan as it relates to the term "master plan".
The public process will include a minimum 45-day public input period before the Planning
Commission holds a public hearing. All registered recognized organizations will be notified of the
proposal.
This memo includes a sgrature block to initiate the petition if that is the decided course of action. If
