maintain sidewalks, roadway paving, and landscaping 2) implement streetscape design<br />

improvements, and 3) accommodate growth with an emphasis on reduced reliance on<br />

Land Use <strong>Plan</strong>ning and Zoning<br />

Land use planning that adheres to smart growth principles provides opportunities for people<br />

to travel on bicycle, on foot or on trails. Mixing land uses brings origins and destinations<br />

closer to one another so that people can travel between them by non-motorized means.<br />

Compact land use that builds up more than out does the same. Comprehensive land use<br />

planning integrates parks and greenways so that bikeways and trails can be built in.<br />
