circulation strategies among various contiguous properties based on a study<br />

of optimum parking deck locations throughout the smaller, mixed use<br />

redevelopment areas between Florissant and Lucas and Hunt Roads on the<br />

south side of Natural Bridge Road – includes joint partnerships among land<br />

owners and the use of appropriate federal and state funding sources as well<br />

as local banks<br />

• Increased density and finance of parking structures within the<br />

comprehensive financial structuring of larger development sites between<br />

Florissant and Lucas and Hunt Roads on the north side of Natural Bridge<br />

Road – includes joint partnerships among land owners and the use of<br />

appropriate federal and state funding sources and local banks that would<br />

attract developers interested in dense, mixed use development<br />

• Incorporation of parking garage structures in associated with dense transit<br />

oriented development at the MetroLink station including potential joint<br />

partnering of the land owners and institutional parking needs adjacent to<br />

the station<br />

• All development options include the possibility of parking fees, pooled<br />

development assessments to offset parking structure development, and<br />

assessment of garage impact areas and special assessments related to<br />

specific user needs and master leasing of space in some cases<br />

Note: To optimize travel time and increase business energy along Florissant Road between I‐70 and<br />

Natural Bridge Road, a new streetscape is recommended that includes points of visual interest to<br />

draw visitors from the highway into the Natural Bridge Road commercial area as well as revitalizing<br />

business opportunities at Bermuda Road including parking facilities.<br />
