Guidel <br />The proposed street and block pattern reflects a compact urban character, <br />including the following: <br />Bike racks interspersed throughout The COR to encourage cycling as <br />an alternative mode of transportation. <br />Benches on the public sidewalks to encourage people to linger in <br />The COR <br />Trees and planters along the streets to create an inviting space <br />Wide sidewalks and both on- and off-street bicycle trails <br />Kiosks and other way finding tools for visitors and residents in The COR <br />Outdoor dining is encouraged on the street side of buildings within all districts. <br />Public plaza space is strongly encouraged to be located adjacent to the streets <br />Creative design solutions for streetscape improvements should include: <br />Streetscape improvements that provide traffic calming, particularly along Destination and <br />Downtown streets <br />Inviting streets that draw you into and through The COR <br />A marriage of building design and streetscape design that encourages <br />active spaces near the streets <br />Street trees and planter boxes are a critical element in the unique character of <br />The COR and will be used to help distinguish between different street types <br />and sub-districts within The COR. However, there may be variety within the <br />same street when the street crosses into sub-districts. <br /> <br />Street trees will be chosen to ensure that the species allow for clear pedestrian access along the <br />streets and require minimal maintenance. <br />Along Destination, Downtown, Parkway and Local streets, where regularly spaced blocks exists, <br />one (1) tree species shall be provided per block. In order to provide variety and protect against <br />disease, adjacent blocks shall not be allowed the same street tree. Initial development along a <br />block shall establish the tree species for that block, subject to City review and approval. <br />Along streets without regular block space or longer blocks, such as Connector and Arterial <br />streets, the City may approve groupings of 3-6 trees of one (1) species in lieu of the regular <br />block spacing. <br />Alternatives to the above mentioned planting plan shall be subject to review and approval by <br />the City Council. <br />Autumn Blaze Maple (Acer x freemanii <br />Bicolor Oak (Quercus bicolor) <br />Sienna Glenn Maple (Acer x freemanii <br />Skyline Honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthos var. inermis <br />Ginko (Gingko biloba) <br />Accolade Elm (Ulmus x <br />12 <br />28 <br /> <br />
