Longhorn Pedestrian Connections
It was good to attend the ARB work session meeting to see the latest ideas for the proposal. After the ARB
meeting I brought your idea back and discussed it with our master plan folks.
We liked the pedestrian connection being proposed in place of the stairway accessing Rte. 29;however,the
connection alone still won't be enough to function or meet the intent of the 10' shared use,path for bikes and
pedestrians throughout the site,which is recommended in the adopted master plan. Your current proposal only
brings pedestrians from Rte. 29 into the site but doesn't allow them to access the site from the south of the site.
Staffs suggestions for sidewalk improvements as noted in the 12-4-18 email to Michele are still applicable.
However, you could propose other ideas to meet that same intent and function. Feel free to email me any ideas
you have and I'll provide you some initial guidance on each individual solution before you submit it in the site
plan.
Hope this helps
