Info

COMMUNITY GATEWAYS Community Gateways should be designed as distinctive welcome signs into the communities of the District, with a consistent character as desired by the community and aligned with these Corridor Standards. Designs should buff er non-complying or unsightly uses while integrating alternative transportation options. As with all designs, check with the appropriate agencies for specifi c requirements or permitt ing procedures. EXISTING CONDITIONS 38 │ SCENARIOS • Natural landforms can help add visual interest and screen unsightly uses. • Accent lighting, EPICArt, and other iconic visual representations of the District’s history and culture can be integrated into the industrial landscapes. • Regional signage and monumentation play a signifi cant role in acknowledging thresholds between diff ering land-uses and as entrances to a community. • • • Naturalized landscapes and woodland buff ers should be applied to screen industrial uses and to highlight signifi cant community features. Bio-infi ltration adjacent to impervious areas to fi lter and infi ltrate runoff . Non-motorized trails should be provided for circulation throughout the region. Much of the existing Community Gateway site, along the Port Road industrial corridor, is occupied by impervious paving, wide traffi c lanes, and turf grass vegetation. The industrial uses adjacent to this corridor may elevate the need to provide visual and noise screening.
