A. This chapter will be primarily implemented through developing bike and pedestrian network plans within the City in conjunction with Kootenai Metropolitan Planning Organization's regional plans. If a development is proposed for an area which is not covered by a bike or network plan, the requirements of this chapter apply if the street(s) of that development will connect to a street or facility which is covered by a bike and pedestrian network plan.
B. These plans should specify the type and location of improvements, and should be implemented as funding becomes available.
C. Special emphasis shall be placed on those elements of these plans that can be accomplished with little additional expense, such as providing bike lanes where existing pavement is adequate or where road shoulders are sufficient to allow for safe bicycle use.
D. Completion of the Complete Streets Checklist shall be required for all street projects, subdivisions, planned unit developments, and commercial and multi-family building permits. (Ord. 3614, 2018)
