One or two mid-size (or small) pedestrian plazas —places to linger, eat and drink, as well as just <br />passing through. Say where Mr. Movies used to be in Arden Plaza. <br />Must do something for safe pedestrian/bicycle access across Hwy 51 bridge — ASAP ! ! <br />After laying down minimum standards for new buildings, specify that for city approval of any <br />particular proposal, in addition to meeting all the minimums, the design must include "something <br />extra," above the minimums (some extra quality/qualities/features/etc.) so we don't wind up with <br />an area that meets the minimums but seldom rises above them. In other words, "good enough" is <br />not good enough for approval. <br />Would like to see as much permeable surfacing as possible, to minimize runoff and associated <br />issues. <br />Recreational locations for residents — those in NDR? <br />What about "being" someplace — a gathering place to arrive to, not just drive by. <br />Outdoor dining? Community places? <br />Stoplights might stop traffic rather than make it smoother. <br />Retail should be up closer to the street for better visibility. <br />County Road E — will county consent? <br />RCWD — what do they have to say? <br />Housing next to train? <br />Property owners in Shoreview — W to open space zoning. <br />Starting with street improvements would help bring private sector redevelopment. <br />Some concerns about additional traffic on Pine Tree and Harriet — with more density on Lake <br />Johanna Blvd. <br />Street lights on Harriet. <br />Crossing at Lexington needs improvements. <br />How will left -turn loss be coordinated with businesses? <br />Traffic flow through N/S and E/W of Arden Plaza and North Park? <br />Pedestrian connection from Harriet to Arden Plaza!! <br />B2 Small Area Plan — September 18, 2008 <br />
