In early summer
2004, Alta
Planning + Design was retained by the City of Oregon
City and Clackamas County to study the existing roadway
conditions on Holcomb
Boulevard and develop a streetscape concept that would
achieve the goals and objectives of the neighborhood residents,
City, and County. The goals and objectives were derived
from comments at the first public workshop on June 30,
2004 at the Oregon City Baptist Church. The Objectivez
include:
GOAL 1: SAFETY Provide pedestrian facilities that will enable all neighborhood
residents to safely walk along and cross Holcomb Boulevard.
GOAL 2: PRESERVE
NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTER Design
pedestrian facilities to preserve and enhance the character
of the neighborhood as the area continues to develop and
grow.
GOAL 3: CONSISTENCY
WITHOUT UNIFORMITY Provide
pedestrian facilities that are consistent but not redundant
and pre-manufactured.
