,current focus is within the Development Plan Sub-Areas,these focus areas will shift over <br /> time as redevelopment and preservation efforts stabilize and stimulate the desired <br /> development within the neighborhood, Based on current activities, it is anticipated that <br /> in the future there will be two additional Revitalization Areas; both located east of Eddy <br /> Street and south of State Road 23, <br /> Priority will be given to the north, moving southwards, with the focus area of <br /> Revitalization Area North being on the area between Howard and Chalfant Streets. As <br /> neighborhood conditions stabilize, and additional resources become available, efforts will <br /> shift to Revitalization Area South, covering the area between Bissell and Cedar Streets, <br /> These areas are predominately single family detached residential housing and should <br /> remain as such, Also, efforts should be made to make Fredrickson Park more visible and <br /> accessible to the public. In addition, improvements should be made to the park so it plays <br /> a role in the redevelopment effort and is viewed as an invaluable asset to the area. Both <br /> areas should be monitored to ensure that any future development transitions into and <br /> complements the activities of any adjacent sub-area. <br /> Goals and Objectives for the Future Development Areas: <br /> Apply strategic preservation approaches in pockets of disinvestment, including <br /> spot code enforcement, zoning enforcement, rehabilitation activity and small <br /> public works projects; <br /> Improving the accessibility and making physical improvements to Fredrickson <br /> Park; <br /> Encourage housing design that confirms the urban setting and relates to the <br /> vernacular architectural styles present in the neighborhood. <br /> E.

As such senior housing should be examined as a high priority for <br /> the neighborhood. It is recognized that it is common for senior housing to be single <br /> story; however, depending on the characteristics of the selected site, multi-story buildings <br /> may be more desirable and consistent with the sites surroundings. In this case an effort <br /> should be made to ensure this development is multi-story, incorporating elevators in <br /> order to make it senior friendly. <br /> F. Public Infrastructure l Utilities <br /> As development occurs in the Northeast Neighborhood careful consideration should be <br /> given to the use and placement of infrastructure and utilities so as to minimize the <br /> negative impact on future development parcels and existing residential areas. <br /> In particular, with the changes to the Five Points intersection, there will be a need to re- <br /> route the existing power lines. The new power lines should be placed so that they have a <br /> minimal impact on the aesthetics of the future development; with the preferential routing <br /> 12 <br />
