Overview
Basically, the City will re-master plan the west side of town. This is a significant undertaking identified as a key objective of the General Plan, Economic Strategy, Council Goals, and current Budget/Financial Plan. A new vision for the future will be developed to include:
-
New
mix of residential & commercial uses, types, and
densities; - Transit system improvements to emphasize pedestrian,, bicycle, & public transit equally with automobile, calm traffic, & link neighborhoods;
- Downtown expansion;
- Salinas River restoration, enhancement and connection with an expanded downtown;
- Orientation of future development upon traditional neighborhood design principles;
- Master planning City & Pioneer Parks, as well as Robbins Field;
- Master planning historical museums;
- Master planning PR Event Center non-equestrian facilities;
- Updating historical buildings inventory and create an historic building preservation/reuse code;
- Rethinking west side traffic circulation, public transit and parking.
There will be a number of opportunities for active community participation and input including 4-6 public workshops, focus groups, and an intensive 5-day design charrette. A schedule of participation opportunities is forthcoming.
