Hugo Dos lit; 9n f ';gin <br /> The edge along the railroad ROW and the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail along the west side <br /> of Highway 61 should be maintained as an open-space corridor connecting City Hall and the <br /> CBD to new development to the south. This edge should include: <br /> • trail connections for bicycles and winter sports <br /> uses <br /> • landscaping to act as a year-round buffer; <br /> • pedestrian-oriented trail and street lighting; <br /> • places to rest with benches, planters and trash <br /> receptacles. <br /> APR— <br /> • On downtown streets where retail and commercial uses are proposed, on-street parking <br /> is encouraged; streets should be designed with the parking lane designated either by <br /> curbing or with a change in paving materials. <br /> • Downtown district streets should allow for public right-of-way between the curb and the <br /> building wall, a minimum 10'-12' wide. This area should be "zoned" to provide for street <br /> signs, landscaping and street trees, and both street and sidewalk lighting closest to the <br /> curb. There should be a clear pedestrian walking path in the center, and then an area <br /> designated for seating or other street furniture (trash receptacles, bus benches, etc) and <br /> commercial opportunities <br /> (including newspaper boxes). <br /> Where necessary, such as , <br /> where the street ROW does not <br /> allow for a wider sidewalk, <br /> these amenities may need to be <br /> accommodated within the <br /> parcel boundaries. .,: ,; .. <br /> r <br /> Page 13 of 23 <br />
