H. Streetscape <br /> 11.1 General Design <br /> All street design should be consistent with the standards of the Riverfront development. Sidewalk, <br /> driveway,and curb-cut paving design should consider the adjacent and overall design. Accommodations for <br /> mass transit, present and future, should be made within vehicular right of ways. On street parking should be <br /> provided where practical. <br /> Pedestrian circulation should be given priority over other modes of transportation. Pedestrian crossings with <br /> enhanced paving will be provided at all intersections and mid block locations to provide for safe pedestrian <br /> access. All shopping street frontages should be designed to ensure that a minimum of eight feet on either <br /> side is dedicated to unrestricted pedestrian movement, with a minimum 6 feet additional width provided for <br /> outdoor dining and other activities as deemed necessary by the developer. <br /> Due to the landfill condition of the site, street trees are considered impractical. A variety of shallow-rooted <br /> plant materials are to be substituted to provide necessary screening and desired aesthetic conditions. <br /> Landscape parkways shall be a minimum of 6 feet in width. Shrubs, grasses, and groundcovers may be <br /> installed in lieu of areas typically provided with street trees. Plantings should be layered and continuous. <br /> Site amenities, signage, and pedestrian lighting will be provided at all interior roadways. Benches, chairs, <br /> trash and recycling receptacles should be provided for pedestrian comfort. The use of these and other <br /> street furnishings such as newspaper racks, bus shelters, and container plantings should contribute and <br /> meet the standards of the Riverfront environment. <br /> t.,. <br /> poc,„, <br /> Everett Riverfront District Master Plan November 14 2008 <br /> Mixed Use Development page 3 of 17 <br /> Design Guidelines <br /> G-3 <br />
