The North Beale Corridor Complete Streets Revitalization Plan for North Beale Road from Lindhurst Avenue to Linda Avenue sets forth design guidelines that incorporate guiding principles for transformation of North Beale Road into a distinctive high quality neighborhood boulevard; creation of a safe, multifunctional roadway for users of all types and abilities; and revitalization of corridor surroundings.  The Plan is to be used as a design guide for future development and revitalization of North Beale Road.

 

The purpose of the project was to involve the Linda Community in planning the North Beale Road corridor.  This was accomplished through a multi-day community design workshop (charrette) to develop a plan with detailed street and corridor design recommendations for North Beale Road. Staff conducted extensive outreach including information in both Hmong and Spanish inviting community participation in the charrette.

 

In October, 2008, staff, LGC, and Dan Burdon, who is nationally recognized for his work in sustainable communities, conducted the charrette which consisted of several focus groups (local and regional agencies, community service groups, and an economic development group) and a Neighborhood Walk and Design Fair.  Findings from the charrette were presented in an open discussion at Yuba Community College and are reflected in the Plan. 

In October, 2009 the Planning Commission received public comments on the Plan and adopted a resolution recommending that the Board of Supervisors adopt the Plan.

 

At its meeting of December 15, 2009, the Board of Supervisors received additional public comments and on a unanimous vote adopted the North Beale Corridor Complete Streets & Revitalization Plan.
