The stated goals and objectives of this Redevelopment Plan were as follows: MISSION VISION This Plan is the city’s response to remedy the conditions of blight found in the August 2005 report through thoughtful redevelopment of the Corridor. The following Corridor Goals are taken from the Design and Connectivity Plan (DCP). An expanded description of the intent of each goal is found in the DCP Chapter 2. Corridor Goals A basic goal is to have an active and exciting corridor that is attractive with a distinct character. A strategy for achieving this goal is to improve the experience for the user by creating safe attractive walkways and streets and by providing buildings and landscaping that are of interest to users and passersby. Several key strategies should be followed: 1. Provide a distinct identity for the corridor 2. Develop the corridor as a focus for commercial and entertainment activities that serve residents and visitors alike 3. Strengthen the corridor as a neighborhood service center 4. Provide mixed use development 5. Clearly define gateways at key locations along the corridor 6. Improve auto, bicycle and pedestrian circulation along the corridor 7. Provide pedestrian connections to adjacent neighborhoods 8. Establish a wayfinding system 9. Guide new development along the corridor such that it improves the aesthetic experience 10. Coordinate public and private improvements 11. Strengthen connections between complementary uses 12. Provide flexible public space along the corridor GUIDING PRINCIPLES In addition to the specifically stated goals for the District the following Guiding Principles have been adopted to provide a basis for decision making over the life of the District. These principles should be applied to any development program or other activity that will affect the District: Page 1 of 4    1. Ensure the health safety and security of the District 2.
