Section E: Streetscapes and the Pedestrian Network Dimensions and Layout - Transit and parking stall dimensions, aisle widths, and layout shall conform to City of Everett and local Fire Department standards, codes, and regulations unless otherwise approved by the City and Fire Department. These include layout and stall sizes listed in the Everett Parking Requirement Chart and Transit Requirements. On-street parallel parking shall be 8' wide and angled spots will be "back in" and assume a 2' maximum overhang on the curb. Both types of on street parking will be separated from the pedestrian way by a 6" wide curb with a 4'wide planting strip, or grated street trees. Parking will not be allowed in roadside areas defined for pedestrian access; bollards may serve to control vehicle access. In some areas, removable bollards may be needed to allow fire and maintenance access. Sight Lines- Parking must be located to ensure clear visibility to and from moving vehicles. For parking lot entries, sigh lines will be consistent with the City of Everett sight line standards. ADA Parking-Parking shall comply with the State of Washington's Accessible Parking requirements, Chapter 11 of the ADA Handbook, and all other accessible requirements and guidelines of the Access Board, State, and City of Everett. Streetscape Planting Design Intent — Planting along streets at Waterfront Place Central will be a major design element for enhancing character and the quality of place. Plants will define the street edge and add scale, visual interest, and seasonal change. Layout and plant palette selection should reinforce and define the streetscape character of each district. Plants shall be appropriate to this urban marine environment and emphasize the unique qualities of their context. Planting shall be selected and placed to enhance rather than obstruct views. Selections shall be low- water use, and grouped in associations with similar microclimate sun, soil and water requirements. All planting shall be irrigated. Street Trees - Street trees shall be used along the curb side of streets between the curb and sidewalk or along the walkway. Trees will be used to reinforce pedestrian connections, define edges, and provide shade for seating areas. Trees in view lines of residential areas should be columnar, or they should be branched clear to 8' high and have an open canopy. All street trees shall have a minimum of 2 V2" caliper at the time of planting. All street and public space trees will be chosen from species that will not obstruct views of any user-groups on the project site or those of potentially affected nearby residential areas as they reach maturity. Illumination Design Intent- Streetscape exterior lighting will provide safe and effective evening character illumination for the pedestrian and vehicular areas ofroads,sidewalks,and walkways throughout Waterfront Place Central. Design will be special to the development concept and character reflecting this unique urban maritime waterfront environment.
