New development in the area will be required to pay the cost of extending public services and infrastructure to the site. The city has provided an incentive through the preparation of the specific area plan that identifies necessary infrastructure to serve the plan area. Amendments to the Bethel- Danebo Plan require that the Royal Avenue Specific Plan serve as the basis for development regulations and infrastructure improvements within the Royal Avenue Specific Plan area. Policy A. 10 (Residential Land Use and Housing EJement Page Ill-A-8) " Promote higher residential density inside the urban growth boundary that utilizes existing infrastructure, improves the efficiency of public services and facilities, and conserves rural resource lands outside the urban growth boundary." Amendments to the BethebDanebo Plan require that the Royal Avenue Specific Plan serve as the basis for development regulations and infrastructure improvements within the Royal Avenue Specific Plan area~ The Royal Avenue Specific Plan provides for the utilization of existing infrastructure (drainage, schools, community park, and Royal Avenue), improves the efficiency of transk service to the area, improves the efficiency of drainage and wastewater facilities in the area, and conserves rural resource lands by providing for higher-density development inside the urban growth boundary. Policy A. 11 (Resi_dential Land Use and Housing Element Page Ill-A-8) ~Generally locate higher density residential development near employment or commercial services, in proximity' to major transportation systems or within transportation-efficient nodes." Amendments to the Bethel-Danebo Plan require that the Royal Avenue Specific Plan serve as the basis for development regulations and infrastructure improvements within the Royal Avenue Specific Plan area. The Royal Avenue Specific Plan implements the nodal development concept in the Bethel-Danebo neighborhood. The proposed site plan for the area includes provisions for more than 8 acres of commercial and commercial-mixed used development within the plan boundaries. Higher-density development will occur in proximity to commercial services and the employment generated by those services. The plan recommends the improvement of Royal Avenue and the construction of Roosevelt Boulevard within the node; both facilities are major streets and, as such, are pa~ of the "major transportation system" in the region. Transportation efficiency is a guiding prindple of the nodal development concept. Many elements of the plan focus on improving transportation-efficiencies of new development.
