Comprehensive Plan <br /> Transportation Element <br /> Through its land development regulations, the countyrequires developers to incorporate <br /> connectivity strategies into new development projects. These strategies include requiring internal <br /> street connections between adjacent subdivisions; requiring multiple entranceways to adjacent <br /> thoroughfare roadways; requiring marginal access roadways along arterials; and requiring <br /> pedestrian connections between neighborhoods. Examples of new developments that incorporate <br /> connectivity improvements include Vero Lago; Waterway Village; the South county initiative <br /> neighborhoods; . Such as Falcon Trace and Millstone Landing, Pointe West, <br /> and the Reserve of Vero Beach. <br /> In many instances, efforts to improve neighborhood connectivity meet with opposition from <br /> neighboring residents. Residential opposition is most often due to concerns about crime, traffic, <br /> noise and other environmental impacts. <br /> By 2006, the county had adopted a TND ordinance, and a number of new urbanist/traditional <br /> neighborhood design communities had been developed or were proposed. These developments <br /> are characterized by a mixture of uses, small residential blocks, streets and sidewalks connecting <br /> neighborhoods to each other, as well as schools and other institutional uses. Though these <br /> projects contained a relatively small percentage of all new residential units in the county, there is <br /> evidence that interest in TND projects has expanded throughout the county. <br /> • <br /> , • <br /> .� <br /> 1 0 2 `� <br /> Mies I. <br /> — `—— O,e <br /> Br�+vrrd County f�$'' /U <br /> e/r1J7I/IIIvF <br /> 0 0,1 1 i �1 f (AVM, <br /> k 4,4 , . , ` 4 <br /> y <br /> i r Al.
