TC5 Bicycle/pedestrian connections (on-street and off[street) <br />The Master Plan describes a network of bicycle/pedestrian trails and walkways (both on <br />and'off-street) that connect sub-districts to various amenities within the Town Center and <br />to the rest o1: the City. Proposed park improvements include off-street pedestrian and <br />bicycle paths includin9 grade-separated crossings through Town Center Park at <br />Rhinestone and Zeolite Streets. Bicycle riders may choose to share the street with <br />vehicular traffic, but there is no provision for dedicated bike lanes on anyof the Town <br />Center streets at this time. Providin§ and maintaining bicycle and pedestrian connections <br />should be a key component for all development projects in this sub-district. <br /> <br />TC.5 Residential courts, pocket.parks <br />and other private §reen space <br />Alon9 with proposed public parks and <br />great streets, there are many opportunities <br />to integrate private courtyards and pocket <br />parks within the Neighborhood Sub- <br />district. These small-scale greens provide <br />important 'breathing space', contribute to <br />stormwater management and offer <br />additional recreational amenities (tot lot, <br />si~ting areas) to serve specific buildin9 <br />tenants or residents. Back §ardens, auto- <br />courts and other options should be <br />considered as pa~{ of every residential site <br />development plan. <br /> <br /> <br />
