Site Specific Recommendation (from the Southside Plan):
Area 9a & 9b should be master-planned together.
In limited cases an individual restaurant and other retail projects may be considered if:
pedestrian oriented
cohesive with the surrounding development.
Mobility Plan Recommendations
Continue to improve bicycle and pedestrian circulation. Develop an interconnected system of trails and sidewalks along all public and private streets. Specifically:
Provide a connection from the trail along Southlake Boulevard to the paved area between the West Retail building and the East Retail building to improve non-motorized access to the development.
A sidewalk should be provided along the future north-south road indicated on the plan and along Rucker Road.
Clearly indicate any proposed non-motorized connectivity to the adjoining properties to the east and west.
Environmental Resource Protection
Adapt development to the topography rather than topography to the development.
Show the areas on the site that are to be undisturbed and disturbed accurately.
Maximize tree preservation.
Clearly indicate which trees are to be removed and which trees will remain.
