Appendix 2A. Downtown Street Requirements
This appendix is included in your selections.

Street Requirements is a guide to the horizontal layout of the various roadway features contained within the public right-of-way for each of the various street classifications in the Downtown zoning area.  This appendix supplements RZC 21.10.150 Pedestrian Program of Downtown Regulations and has been approved by the Technical Committee.  Refer to RZC 21.150.N for further application guidance.

A. Street Requirements.   Street requirements apply to the following areas.  Table 1 provides details fo right-of-way and roadway cross sections.  Pedestrian elements, including sidewalk and landscape details, are provided in RZC 21.10.150.

1. Right-of-Way. Right-of-way is the publicly owned area between private property lines.  It includes transportation infrastructure for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit vehicle circulation.  Some pedestrian infrastructure may also be accommodated in easements instead of right-of-way depending on site-specific characteristics.

2. Roadway. The roadway is measured from face-of-curb to face-of-curb within the right-of-way.  It includes travel and turn landes and may include curbside parking and striped bike lanes or cycle tracks.  For shared streets, a curb may not separate the roadway from the sidewalk.  In this case, the transition between the two areas will generally be marked by other features such as bollards, different hardscape surface materials, or in other ways.

3. Landscape/Bioretention.  The landscape/bioretention area is located between the curb and sidewalk and may include traditional landscaping, bioretention cells or a combination of the two.

4. Sidewalks. Sidewalks are measured from development property line to edge of landscape strip and bioretention zones within the right-of-way.  Sidewalks and landscape strips and bioretention areas may also be located partially or entirely within easements depending on site-specific characteristics.
