Park District Planned Development Overlay | Exhibit A.2 – Park District Design Standards Page 6 <br />Exhibit A.2_Park District PDO_Design Standards_24-0703 <br />2.0 – Streetscapes <br />Purpose <br />• To provide complete, accessible, and connected streetscapes <br />• To promote high-quality and healthy landscaping <br />Relationship to Other Standards <br />This section supplements the sidewalk standards of Chapter 19.33 EMC. Other standards are <br />unique to the Park District. See Section 4.3 for other landscaping standards. See the City’s <br />approved tree species allowed within street rights-of-way at the Tree Program website. <br />Standards <br />A. Streetscape character. <br />1. North-south streets. The north-south streets must have distinct streetscape designs <br />which account for different conditions. <br />a. Poplar Street. On the west side, this street must have a variety of street tree species <br />and non-uniform spacing, in keeping with a natural park-like approach to the <br />landscaping and tree plantings in the west border area. <br />b. Hemlock Street. This street must have a limited set of street tree species with <br />regular spacing, except where the pattern is interrupted by adjacent plazas and park- <br />like areas where spacing may differ. <br />c. Fir Street. This street must have a limited set of street tree species on the west side <br />of the street, and the east side these must be trees and other plantings that are <br />varied in species and spacing to enhance the buffering from adjacent properties (see <br />also Section 4.3.A). <br />2. East-west streets. <br />a. New Street (placeholder street name subject to change). The new east-west street <br />must have a variety of street tree species and non-uniform spacing, in keeping with a <br />natural park-like approach to the landscaping and tree plantings in adjacent open <br />spaces. <br />b. 12th and 14th Streets. On the Park District frontages, these streets may have a <br />mixture of approaches to street tree species and spacing appropriate to the context <br />and design on adjacent intersecting streets. <br />
