Notice of Public Meeting SH 5 From FM 2786 (Stacy Road) to Spur 399 CSJs: 0047-09-037, 0047-09-034
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is proposing to widen State Highway 5 (SH 5) from Farm-to-Market 2786 (Stacy Road) to Spur 399 in Collin County, Texas. This notice advises the public that TxDOT will be conducting in-person and virtual public meetings to receive public comments on the proposed project. All meetings will present the same information and the in-person meeting will be held in an open house format. The virtual public meeting can be viewed beginning on Tuesday, Jan. 25, 2022 at 6 p.m. and will remain online through the comment period deadline of Feb. 9, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. The virtual public meeting is not a live event and the materials can be viewed at your convenience. The virtual meeting will consist of a pre-recorded video presentation and will include both audio and visual components. To log onto the virtual public meeting, go to the project website: www.keepitmovingdallas.com/SH5Fairview. If you do not have internet access, you may call (214) 320-6244 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, to ask questions and access project materials during the project development process. Additionally, TxDOT is holding an open house in-person public meeting option on Tuesday, Jan. 25, 2022, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Courtyard Marriott, Watters Ballroom, 210 Stacy Road, Allen, Texas 75002. In-person attendees will be able to view the same presentation delivered in the virtual public meeting, review project materials, ask questions of TxDOT staff and/or consultants, and leave written comments. The proposed project would consist of the reconstruction and widening of SH 5 from FM 2786 (Stacy Road) to Spur 399 within the town of Fairview in Collin County, Texas, and is approximately 2.67 miles in length. The proposed project would reconstruct and widen existing SH 5 from a two-lane rural roadway to a four-lane urban divided curbed roadway (6-lane ultimate) from FM 2786 (Stacy Road) to Indian Springs Road and a four-lane divided curbed roadway from Indian Springs Road to Spur 399. The existing right-of-way width varies from 66 to 172 feet in width. The proposed improvements would include curb and gutter, shared-use paths on both sides of the roadway, intersection improvements, and left-turn and right-turn lanes at designated locations. The proposed right-of-way width would vary from 116 feet to 172 feet in width. The proposed project would, subject to final design considerations, require additional right of way and potentially displace one residential and two non-residential structures. Relocation assistance is available for displaced persons and businesses. Information about the TxDOT Relocation Assistance Program and services and benefits for those displaced and other affected property owners, as well as information about the tentative schedule for right-of-way acquisition and construction, can be obtained from the TxDOT district office by calling (214) 320-4480 or by visiting the project website. The proposed project is anticipated to impact the following properties protected under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966: Town of Fairview’s Meadows Park. The proposed project would result in the acquisition of approximately 0.2 acres of additional right of way of park land for the construction of additional travel lanes and the construction of the shared-used path. TxDOT anticipates making a de minimis determination for this use under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966. Public comment on the effects of the proposed project on the activities, features or attributes of the Meadows Park and the greenspace may be submitted as described below. The proposed project would involve an action in a floodplain. Any environmental documentation or studies, any maps and drawings showing the project location and design, tentative construction schedules, and other information regarding the proposed project are on file and available for inspection on the project website beginning Jan. 25 at 6 p.m. or Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. at TxDOT Dallas District Office, 4777 East U.S. Highway 80, Mesquite, Texas 75150. The virtual public meeting and in-person option will be conducted in English. If you need an interpreter or document translator because English is not your primary language or you have difficulty communicating effectively in English, one will be provided to you. If you have a disability and need assistance, special arrangements can be made to accommodate most needs. If you need interpretation or translation services or are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend and participate in the virtual public meeting or in-person option, please contact Patrick Clarke, Dallas District Public Information Officer at (214) 320-4483 no later than 4 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 18, 2022. Please be aware that advance notice is required as some services and accommodations may require time for TxDOT to arrange. Comments from the public regarding the proposed project are requested and may be submitted by mail to the TxDOT Dallas District Office, 4777 East U.S. Highway 80, Mesquite, Texas 75150 or by email to Kibru.Andargie@txdot.gov. Verbal comments may be submitted by leaving a voicemail at (833) 933-0443. All comments must be received or postmarked by Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2022. Responses to comments received will be available online at www.keepitmovingdallas.com/SH5Fairview once they have been prepared. If you have any general questions or concerns regarding the proposed project or virtual meeting or in person option, please contact Kibru Andargie, P.E., TxDOT Project Manager, at (214) 320-6244 or Kibru.Andargie@txdot.gov. The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried-out by TxDOT pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 9, 2019, and executed by FHWA and TxDOT.
