(A) For the purpose of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning.
COLLECTOR STREETS. All those streets designated as COLLECTOR STREETS on the street classification map, on file in the office of the City Clerk. COLLECTOR STREETS provide for both land access, service, and traffic circulation within residential neighborhoods and commercial and industrial areas, and collect traffic from residential neighborhoods and channel it into the arterial street system. Such streets are not designated on the transportation element of the city’s general plan.
LOCAL STREETS. All those streets designated as LOCAL STREETS on the street classification map, on file in the office of the City Clerk. LOCAL STREETS provide for access to those properties that are adjacent to the collector street network and serve travel needs over relatively short distances and connections to higher classification streets. Such streets are not designated on the transportation element of the city’s General Plan.
MAJOR ARTERIAL STREETS. All those streets designated as MAJOR ARTERIAL STREETS on the street classification map, on file in the office of the City Clerk. MAJOR ARTERIAL STREETS provide for traffic movement from one area of the city to another, and are primarily designed to accommodate through traffic; provision of access to abutting property is a secondary consideration. MAJOR ARTERIAL STREETS are designated on the transportation element of the city’s General Plan.
MINOR ARTERIAL STREETS. All those streets designated as MINOR ARTERIAL STREETS on the classification street map, on file in the office of the City Clerk. MINOR ARTERIAL STREETS accommodate through traffic, while balancing the need to develop adjacent land uses in accordance with arterial access guidelines contained in the city’s Comprehensive Plan.
PARKWAY. Those streets designated on the city’s street classification map as a PARKWAY and proposed to have a right-of-way not less than that for a major arterial street and that shall have controlled points of access. These streets are designated on the transportation element of the city’s General Plan. Such streets shall be treated as major arterial streets for the purpose of regulating truck traffic under this code.
(B) Truck routes and through truck routes are established for major arterial streets.
