Section.9.2 4 also provides for incentives for projects which include -public transit support. This is timely.1n relation to the Hy-Vee proposal as. staff from area communities, and Met Council, Ramsey County, MnDOT and consultants are planning for Future Bits Rapid Transit. along the Highway 61 corridor. Bus stop options are being considered as are crosswalks, pedestrian tunnel or bridge locations as well as a park and ride lot and/or ramp. The group working on the BRT Master Plan is aware of the Hy-Vee plans. Hy-Vee has not proposed any site im provements. specifically related to. accommodate the 6RT and as a result, no incentives would be available. Section 9-4 defines Thoroughfare Standards.:Section 9.4.2 states: The thoroughfare design in a given area of the. Gateway District is determined. in part by the subzone to which the land is assigned. Right -of way dedication and the use of the right-of-way is set forth in the Thoroughfare Type diagrams in Figures 2 and 3. The presence of trees within a diagram indicates a requirement to plant "street trees" within the indicated area. A development plan's thoroughfares shall cam ply with the dimensional and layout standards applicable to. each thoroughfare type. The following Thoroughfare Types are allowed in each sub -zone: 1) Neighborhood Edge:.A,: B, Alley; ii) Neighborhood General:..A, C, C*, Alley, Boulevard. (Type G only allowed within 250' of.Mixed-U.se sub -zone boundary) iii) Neighborhood Mixed -Use: C, D. Alley, Boulevard iv} Neighborhood Center: D, Alley, Boulevard, Scheuneman Road and Hoffman Road should be treated as Tjipe D thoroughfares in plans (May also. propose a Plaza with a thoroughfare as regulated by Figure 5). Hoffman Road, a portion of which is proposed to be vacated is considered a Type Q thoroughfare. Page 31 of the Ordinance shows corridor Improvements planned by the. City for redevelopment of Hoffman Road. There are no plans. by Hy-Vee to improve Hoffman Road. A passible condition for approval. could include a requirement that Hoffman Road be reconstructed as shown as a Type D medium -volume commercial street or a Type: Boulevard. This option must be considered prior to action to vacate a portion of Hoffman Road. as the design standards for both options require 89-94 feet of right-of-way or 93-120 feet of right-of-way. Figure 14 on Page 45 of the Consolidated Land Use Ordinance provides requirements for a single use building in the Gateway Zone. n
