2.7.3020 Purpose.
The purpose of the Stone Creek Master Planned Development is to create a coordinated neighborhood with special development standards for the residential, commercial, recreational, and public institutional uses within the master plan area. The master plan development objectives are to:
•Provide a variety and mixture of housing types and densities with compatible architectural styles in a coordinated neighborhood.
•Identify and coordinate street and utility locations.
•Provide a site for the construction of a public elementary school.
•Designate neighborhood open space for construction and maintenance of a public park.
•Establish design standards for streets, sidewalks and building locations to create streetscapes that are safe and accessible for all modes.
•Provide an area for neighborhood commercial to reduce vehicle trips and create a mixed-use residential neighborhood.
•Create safe and convenient pedestrian and bicycle circulation and trail connections.
The plan promotes the development of a mixed-use neighborhood based on traditional planning principles with a network of connected streets, some narrower than required by Chapter 3.4, to help distribute local traffic evenly. A neighborhood park is provided to protect the ASI and provide community open space. Neighborhood commercial at the center of the neighborhood on Brentwood Avenue will reduce the use of automobiles while keeping the associated commercial traffic away from the residential areas. [Ord.
