development.

Plan:

liner buildings close to the street to encourage pedestrian movement.
• Locate prominent buildings to visually define corners and screen parking lots.
• Locate building entries and storefronts to face the primary street,in addition to
any entries oriented towards parking areas.
• Encourage storefront design of mixed-use buildings at ground floor level,with
windows and doors along at least 50% of the front facade.
• Encourage or require placement of surface parking to the rear or side of
buildings, rather than between buildings and the street.
b. Movement Patterns.
• Provide sidewalks along primary streets and connections to adjacent
neighborhoods along secondary streets or walkways.
• Limit driveway access from primary streets while encouraging access from
secondary streets.
• Provide pedestrian amenities, such as wide sidewalks, street trees,pedestrian-
scale lighting, and street furnishings (benches, trash receptacles,etc.)
c. Encourage infill/redevelopment opportunities that optimize use of city
infrastructure and that complement area,neighborhood, and/or corridor context and
character.
