Certain parts of the planning area are most susceptible to change than others due to the large size of the parcel, marginal value of existing uses, or they are vacant.

and Engle Avenue. This section of roadway has several unsignalized intersections, many driveway curb cuts, a lack of continuity in the sidewalk system and difficult left turn access. There have been several options prepared with various types of pedestrian and lane width improvements that are analyzed in Section Three. In 2004, the County’s traffic consultant prepared a report summarizing existing conditions and analyzing various roadway design alternatives. Findings regarding existing traffic conditions included: • Fair Oaks Boulevard is an urban arterial street classified as a “Thoroughfare” in the current General Plan (a six-lane limited access street). Right: Community Elements Fair Oaks Boulevard has traditionally served the Carmichael community. In the planning area are uses that contribute to the sense of community. These include residential uses, grocery stores, churches, Carmichael Park, the post office and a school. These uses can be integrated into the planning to enhance the Boulevards role as the community’s “main street”.
