Attachment A <br />City of Falcon Heights <br />Complete Streets Policy <br />The City of Falcon Heights is committed to developing and maintaining a safe, <br />efficient, balanced and environmentally sound transportation system and <br />supports integrating physical activity into daily routines through actions such as <br />biking, walking, or taking transit. <br />Falcon Heights will enhance safety, mobility, accessibility and convenience for all <br />corridor users including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, motorists, <br />commercial and emergency vehicles, and for people of all ages and abilities by <br />planning, designing, operating, and maintaining a network of complete streets. <br />This policy applies to all corridors under the City of Falcon Heights jurisdiction. <br />The city will work with other transportation agencies to incorporate a complete <br />streets philosophy and encourages the State of Minnesota, neighboring cities, <br />Ramsey County and regional organizations to adopt similar policies. <br />Given the limited number of new streets constructed in Falcon Heights, <br />flexibility in accommodating different modes of travel on existing streets is <br />essential to balancing the needs of all corridor users. The city will implement <br />complete streets in such a way that the character of the project area, the values of <br />the community, and the needs of all users are fully considered. Therefore, <br />complete streets will not look the same in all settings, and will not necessarily <br />include exclusive elements for all modes. <br />As part of any transportation project, incorporation of complete street elements <br />will be considered. These elements include, but are not limited to: <br />• Sidewalks and trails <br />• Speed limits <br />• Stormwater drainage <br />• Trees and other landscaping options <br />• Lane widths <br />• Lighting <br />• Public transit and bicycle facilities <br />• On- street parking <br />Applicable design standards and best practices will be followed in conjunction <br />with construction, reconstruction, changes in allocation of pavement space on an <br />existing roadway, or other changes in street corridor. The planning, design, and <br />implementation processes for all transitway and roadway corridors will: <br />• Involve the local community and stakeholders <br />• Consider the function of the road <br />• Integrate innovative and non - traditional design options <br />
