Oty of Arden Hills - Comprehensive Plan - DRAFT While the City does not have a influence on the nation's energy infrastructure and it is difficult to predict future energy infrastructure needs, the City will be impacted by outside forces beyond its control. It will be necessary to be flexible when implementing this Comprehensive Plan and other developments in order to be responsive to changing conditions. 11.4 Implementation Strategies The following below strategies are proposed to help advance the goal of the transportation chapter. These strategies are not considered all-inclusive and do not preclude the addition of new strategies to take advantage of opportunities that may not be known when this Plan is adopted. o Utilize the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Pavement Management Program (PMP) to plan for long-term improvements. o Require right-of-way dedication along county and local roads to meet future capacity needs as redevelopment is proposed. o Consider the use of flexible street design standards when reconstructing roadways in parts of the City with unique topographical or environmental features. o Develop standards to increase the safety of pedestrian crossings throughout the City. o Update the Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances consistent with the Transportation Plan. o Establish a policy outlining when a traffic impact study should be conducted, including acceptable information to be contained within the study. o Maintain a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) that contains elements for reconstruction of the roadway system, with scheduled maintenance included in annual budgets. Street maintenance should include routine patching, crack filling, and storm sewer cleaning. Implement a schedule for roadway maintenance and reconstruction, street widening/realignment, etc. DRAFT 4/18/2008 90
