AGENDA ITEM: V-A
Study Session, continued discussion of preliminary streetscape design for East Pine Street
STAFF SOURCE:
Don Burt, Planning Manager
BACKGROUND:
On July 25, 2016 the Development Commission reviewed and discussed the streetscape design for East Pine Street with specific attention given to the use of bulb-outs, street trees, and street/pedestrian lights. It was the
Commission’s general consensus to proceed with the use of the extended bulb-outs provided that the loss of on-street parking is minimized to the greatest extent possible. It was also the general consensus that street trees, approximately 50 ft. on center was acceptable. For street lights it was agreed that the use of taller poles at the
intersections was acceptable and that shorter pedestrian poles would be considered mid-block provided lighting
levels would be adequate. The scope of the Project has now been increased to include Seventh Street,
Since the last study session staff and the consultants have been putting together a draft of the basic streetscape design per the prior study session’s discussion. At the August 15th study session the Commission will be updated on the changes to the streetscape (bulb-outs, street trees, pedestrian lights, and impact to on-street parking). The
Commission will also be introduced to street furniture, Street lighting, street tree, and sidewalk pattern options. The objective of the study session will be to finalize the preliminary streetscape plan allowing the consultant to
proceed to preliminary engineering and staff to schedule a Stakeholder meeting.
