<br />The terms “Transition” and “Heritage” are generally defined as (please note that in some cases the choice <br />of classification between a Transition or Heritage option will not always be absolute): <br /> <br />Transition <br />1. – An option that will assist the neighborhood(s), City and/or a current neighborhood <br />service provider to effectively adjust to a gradual trend of annexation and urban development. <br />Such options, while important, do have fewer or less direct benefits in preserving or enhancing <br />traditional neighborhood governance, appearance, and institutions. <br /> <br />Heritage <br />2. – An option which could have clear and direct benefits in preserving and/or enhancing <br />traditional neighborhood governance, appearance, and institutions. <br /> <br />The reader is also cautioned to keep several things in mind in reviewing these service options: <br /> <br />“Advantages” and “Challenges” <br />1. The length and number of listed for each option should not be <br />seen as an indicator of the viability of a given option (e.g.: an option with six listed “challenges” <br />and only two listed “advantages” is not necessarily one that should be rejected). <br /> <br />2. Not all the options listed for a given service are intended to be supported or implemented (by the <br />neighborhoods, City and/or service providers). Choices will have to be made. Similarly, the <br />implementation of options for every service is not anticipated. Choices may perhaps have to be <br />made to move forward with a small suite of options that best support community transition and <br />heritage priorities. <br /> <br />3. Many options, both within a given service category and between services, overlap and are inter- <br />related. Others may tend to cancel each other out or conflict. Neighborhood residents and <br />businesses, the City, and other service providers should use the options as starting points in <br />developing effective transition and heritage strategies. There may even need to be a separate <br />strategies and plans for each neighborhood. <br />5 <br />River Road/Santa Clara Transition/Heritage White Paper <br />DRAFT <br />11-24-05 <br /> <br />Service provider Review <br /> <br />
