Wellington Council Meeting April 10, 2012 Page 236 of 384 Wellington Comprehensive Plan – Transportation Element Update 2011 T-3 TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT and intrastate functions of State Road 80/Southern Boulevard, a Strategic Intermodel Systems (SIS) facility. Such strategies shall be designed to keep local traffic from using State Road 80/Southern Boulevard to the maximum extent feasible given the constraints of the existing build environment. Such strategies may include, but not necessarily be limited to: Maintaining a lot density of residential development in the Palm Beach Little Ranches area in order to minimize the number of local trips which originate in this isolated area of Wellington and designate in the main part of Wellington and which utilize State Road 80/Southern Boulevard. Maintaining a low density of residential development along the northern boundary of Wellington in proximity to State Road 80/Southern Boulevard in order to minimize the number of local trips which originate in this area of Wellington and designate in another area and which utilize State Road 80/Southern Boulevard. Relocating the access to the Palm Beach Little Ranches area in order to minimize conflicts between traffic entering and leaving this area and through traffic on State Road 80/Southern Boulevard. Studying alternative means of connection between Palm Beach Little Ranches and Wellington without having to access the regional transportation system and without creating a direct connection between Forest Hill Boulevard and Southern Boulevard. Permitting and encouraging the development of employment accommodating land uses in parts of Wellington not directly served by State Road 80/Southern Boulevard or served by separate access roads connecting with State Road 80/Southern Boulevard. Such land uses shall be encouraged because the employment opportunities which they provide reduce the need to use State Road 80/Southern Boulevard as a means of reaching the jobs which are disproportionately located in areas to the east of Wellington, areas which are accessible only or primarily via State Road 80/Southern Boulevard. As a matter of public policy, Wellington hereby affirms the following finding of Reid Ewing, et al as published in Developing Successful New Communities: Wellington has been developed in accordance with a well designed plan which can be improved primarily by the addition of employment opportunities. Maintaining the existing distribution of higher density residential land uses and higher intensity non-residential land uses in locations which are accessible to public transit routes. Policy 1.1.4 As a condition for development approval, Wellington shall require that proposed new developments include internal connections with existing and proposed collectors where feasible and efficient to disperse traffic and alleviate congestion.
Wellington Council Meeting April 10, 2012 Page 237 of 384 Wellington Comprehensive Plan – Transportation Element Update 2011 T-4 TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT Policy 1.1.5 Wellington shall maintain safe, handicapped-accessible walkways where feasible along heavily traveled roadways. Policy 1.1.6 Wellington shall annually prepare a report on the status of streets and roads within and near Wellington. Such reports shall document traffic volumes and accident frequencies, evaluate levels of service, identify needed improvements and estimate the costs of improvements. Such reports shall be part of the factual basis for formulating capital improvements policies and budgets. As a part of such reports, Wellington shall evaluate the desirability of adopting lower Level of Service Standards as an option to constructing additional lanes over and above the number shown in the Future Traffic Circulation Map. [9J-5.007 (3) (c) 1] Policy 1.1.7 Wellington shall enact and enforce land development code standards and a review process to control roadway access points, on-site traffic flow and on-site parking. The land development code may require the use of joint access drives for adjacent uses. It will set minimum design standards for: 1) the spacing and design of driveway curb cuts; 2) the size of ingress and egress lanes for major land uses; 3) the spacing and design of median openings; and 4) the provision of service roads. State highway access management standards will be utilized in developing roadway access point controls, particularly on Forest Hill Boulevard. The access management controls will be tailored to help achieve the ends set forth in Objective 1.1 [9J-5.007 (3) (c) 2] Policy 1.1.8 Wellington shall require that on-site circulation and parking be designed to ensure adequate circulation isles, turning radii and parking spaces. Parking regulations shall establish the minimum number of parking spaces which shall be required to serve uses; minimums shall be based on intensity measures such as building square feet. Parking regulations shall establish appropriate minimum sizes for circulation isles, parking stalls and parking stall angles. General standards may provide guidance for discretionary review of parking lot layout in order to ensure that the layout will be safe, convenient and attractive. On-site traffic flow and on-site parking standards may be designed to encourage the use of bicycles by requiring bike racks under certain conditions. Pedestrian access ways may be required through large parking lots to connect building areas to public sidewalks. [9J-5.007 (3) (c) 3] COMMUNITY CHARACTER AND NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY POLICIES Policy 1.1.9 Wellington shall not increase the number of lanes of any collector under Wellington jurisdiction from four lanes to six. Policy 1.1.10 Wellington shall take appropriate additional coordination steps as it deems practical and effective to encourage Palm Beach County to maintain the “Palm Beach County Comprehensive Plan 2025 Roadway Network” map and other relevant documents so that Forest Hill Boulevard is shown as a four-lane cross section rather than a six-lane cross section between South Shore Boulevard and Wellington Trace North. Appropriate steps might include political persuasion, providing funding for other road improvements inside or outside Wellington and applying for special classifications (such as
