5) Page 5-6 Add to the paragraph under Avenues:
The standard avenue is characterized by a wider range of use that typically
results in a greater intensity of development along its route and at major
intersections with other collectors or arterials. Land uses such as Iow to
medium-high density, mixed residential, commercial, or industrial, and their
associated traffic volumes are examples of this kind of development intensity.
Identified traffic calming techniques may be utilized on avenues.

Half-street improvements (sidewalks, curb and gutter, bike lanes/paths, and/or

out improvements in place at time of development. The City may, after
assessing the impact of the development and likelihood of future development,
require the full improvement of streets.
