ARTICLE 9 STREETS Section 9.1. Purpose and Intent This Ordinance encourages the development of a network of interconnecting streets that work to disperse traffic while connecting and integrating neighborhoods with the existing urban fabric of the City. Equally important, the Ordinance encourages the development of a network of sidewalks and bicycle lanes that provide an attractive and safe mode of travel for cyclists and pedestrians. Interconnecting street networks encourage alternate modes of transportation to the automobile, enhance transit service opportunities, improve traffic safety through promoting slower speeds, and potentially reduce vehicle miles traveled within the street network. It is the intent of this Ordinance to build streets that are integral components of community design. Streets shall be detailed to compliment neighborhoods and commercial centers and shall be pedestrian in scale. Streets are encouraged to be designed with on-street parking. All streets shall be landscaped. Section 9.2. Spatial Relationship As the most prevalent and visual public spaces in Punta Gorda, streets should be spatially defined by buildings [see Exhibit 9-A]. Proper alignment and delineation of the public street space occurs when the facades of adjacent buildings are aligned much like the walls forming a room. Buildings that make up the street edges are aligned in a disciplined manner. The defined space observes a certain ratio of height to width. Building articulation must take place primarily in the vertical plane of the facade. Appendages such as porches, balconies, and bay windows are encouraged to promote the transition between the public street and the private dwelling. For good definition, the ratio of one increment of height to six of width is the absolute maximum, with one to three being a good effective minimum for Punta Gorda [see Exhibit 9.B]. As a general rule, the tighter the ratio, the stronger the sense of place. Very tight relationships of one to one can create special pedestrian places. In the absence of spatial definition by facades, disciplined tree planting is an alternative. Trees aligned for spatial enclosure are necessary on streets that have deep building setbacks, as is typical of conventional highway commercial corridors. 26-96
