Final Report ♦ Rogers Road Small Area Plan Task Force <br />Consensus Recommendations <br />Design (cont.) <br />• The expressed desire for less density at the periphery <br />suggest that the Small Area Plan should both address <br />minimum lot size as well as lot coverage requirements. <br />• Street design standards were important to the <br />community. The community wanted to maintain the <br />rural feel of the community at its edges. Streets and <br />roads in this area would not have curb and gutter; in <br />areas where there is greater density, the streets would <br />have a more urban character with curb and gutter. Both <br />street profiles would include sidewalks and street tree <br />planting strips. <br />• Suggested street profiles for these streets are shown on <br />the following page. The profiles also show the location <br />of houses relative to the street, a location which <br />illustrates the front -porch community concept. <br />Rogers Road Small Area Plan Recommendations <br />
