pedestrian-i~iendly environment and transit oriented district that result in reduced vehicle miles traveled, current City code requires street connections~ bicycle and transk improvements -with new development. The illustrative plan associated with the Willakenzie Area Plan shows how the code requirements can be satisfied in a manner that meets nodal development objectives. The plan includes a map identilbying the proposed street network within the plan area; the street network includes major streets (minor arterial, major collector, neighborhood collector) and local streets (medium volume residential~ low volume residential, access lanes and alleys.) The plan also includes design standards for each identified street type; those standards are intended to promote safe~ convenient and economic transportation for all modes of travel. Transportation planning Rule (OAR 660-012-0060) contains the following requirement: (J) Amendments to.fi~nctionalplans, acknowledged comprehensive plans, and land use regulations which significantly affect a transportation 2(bcilio, shah assure that allowed [and uses are consistent with the identified function, capaciOt, and petformance standards (~.g~ level of service, volume m capaci~, ratio, ew.) pf the facili~.... (2) A plan or land use reg~dation amendment significantly affects a wansportation~ci~i~' ~f (a) Changes the fi~nctionat classification of an existing or planned ~am~ortation faciliO'; The f~cfional classification of the Chase Gardens streets were not ch~ged. G~den Way Was designated as a major collector in the A~erial and Collector Street Plan (adopted November 1999). (~) Changes standards implementing a functional class~ication s:ystem: The sweet f~ction~ classifications are Garden Way - Major Collector; Centermial - Minor ~efial; Commons Drive - Neighborhood Collector; K~nsrow - Neighborhood Collector; Marche Chase - Collector; Hartow- Minor A~edal; and aH others - local. The proposed mendments ~d the required associated land use changes that implement nodal development do not affect the st~dards implementing the f~ctional classification system. (c) Allows opes or levels of lancl uses which would result in levels qf travel or access which are inconsistent with the functional classification of a transportation faciZi?: or Many of the trips both begin ~d end outside ofhhe study ~ea. The pla~ed uses and levels of use within the study area are consistent Mth the street classifications and proposed tr~sponation fadlities. The plied uses and levels of use within the study ~ea ~e roughly equivalent to what was acknowledged in the Willakenz~e Area Plan (see findings for Statewide Planning Goals 9 & 10). The uses are rea=~ged Mthin the nodal development ~ea to facilitate non- automobile travel within the node. Proposed amendments to the land use code are based on Tr~spo~afion Plying Rule recommendations for mixed use pedestrian-oriented centers or neighborhood. Exhibit C - 6
