CONNECTIVITY
The City requires a connected street system with all new developments, minimizing the use of cul-de-sacs. Infill parcels will be required to provide future street stubs to adjacent parcels with the potential for development. Retail and office development must provide cross access easements to create circulation patterns to adjacent properties to eliminate multiple accesses to the major street system. This is to reduce travel time and congestion by allowing people to make shorter and more direct trips. Connectivity allows people the option of walking or bicycling because the routes to schools, parks and businesses are shorter. Connectivity allows emergency vehicles like police, fire and ambulances to respond faster and use alternate routes if one is blocked. Connectivity also reduces overall fuel consumption and pollution by shortening trips.
