Utilities

(1)

Design of new subdivisions will respect the road
network hierarchy using local and collector streets
for access to properties.

No provision will be made for direct access from
properties onto arterial roads.

Design of new subdivisions will include provision for
public transit buses on collector streets.

During the long term beyond the time horizon of this
plan, public transit will include Rapid Transit (ALRT)
and Commuter Rail. Land use decisions will take those
future transportation opportunities into account.

Policies

The focus of public inveecment during the term of this
plan is to create employment generators. The
geographic focus of public investment to meet that
goal is the south-east industrial ares.

Utility extensions for servicing new residential
subdivisions are to be constructed and paid for by
private developers through the City's Development Cost
Charge System or where that is not applicable by
installing utilities at their own expense and
collecting from subsequent development by a system of
latecomer charges.

The development staging system for new residential
areas is part of this plan. Development is limited to
Phase One. Monitoring of development is the basis for
permitting development in Phase Two areas. (see Plan
Map Schedule B)

If a higher level of demand for housing occurs than is
projected, amendment to the plan is to be made adding
to or revising development stages. The amendments are
to be carried out in such a way to help meet the plan
goals and objectives for
