Show G Workshop helps public By Harlow Clark Thirty to forty percent of people are either too young c;.or too old to drive, so com-munities com-munities built around cars can't accommodate about a third of the population, according to Soren Sinom-s.sen, Sinom-s.sen, of Cooper Roberts :.Simonsen Architects. Simonsen and Jarret . 3(. Whicker spoke Thursday, i Feb. 6, at an Envision Utah workshop at Lindon City H.Hall. Mountainland Association Associ-ation of Governments estimates esti-mates over a quarter mil-c mil-c lion people will be living in a dozen communities and ,-the unincorporated part of x.north Utah County by 2030, lc where there are now about '106,000. Envision Utah holds .0', , .workshops to help people ttthink about how to manage that growth, how it should .look, and how to preserve open space, and the ability i to walk from one kind of !land use to another. Using examples from Salt Lake yCity and other cities the workshop addressed items jsuch as street design and trees, building and land reuse, mixed commercial-residential commercial-residential uses, and how a city's design can help or hinder walkability. Simonsen said people "will generally only walk a half mile to get some place, jso he talked at length on creating areas that combine presidential, retail, commercial commer-cial and office space within ja half mile. He showed pictures pic-tures of some industrial buildings in Salt Lake City Wed. 8pm to close. Friday 9:30pm to close, & Saturday 8pm to close.

One, on 1100 East, has restaurant and retail space on the first floor and the developer's office on the second. sec-ond. There is also an apartment apart-ment on the second floor, facing a street with other residences. These three uses mean someone is always around, which cuts down on vandalism. Another Anoth-er is an old warehouse that has been converted to retail space on the ground floor, with apartment lofts above. Simonsen mentioned the Riverwoods development in Provo several times as a good example of a friendly place to walk around, and noted there is residential development at Riverwoods because people want to live where they can walk to their services. In contrast, he mentioned University Mall, where there's no residential resi-dential development because people don't want to live there. Zoning also plays a part in whether commercial, retail and residential space can co-exist, and Simonsen said that it has been common com-mon for store owners to have a living space above their store, but zoning got rid of a lot of that. Where it has been allowed again, he said, it's popular. Simonsen said the perception per-ception of safety is important. impor-tant. For example, sidewalks side-walks and trees can aid people's peo-ple's perception of a place as safe and inviting. Trees add to a road's life by shielding it from temperature PjJfi r f-.. o Prims Hib for Tvo ' ' i & Q BLACK ANGl'S - re 4 -. . t """" v, ' Save f-;.f v visualize walkable cities extremes, since asphalt is sensitive to such extremes. Perception can also aid in making ; driving safer. Simonsen said Salt Lake City is known around the world for straight wide streets, but straight, wide streets encourage speed. He showed how striping the shoulder on 500 North had decreased speed by giving the perception that the lane had narrowed. He also showed how Salt Lake City had calmed traffic traf-fic on 200 West with a median, medi-an, and said that striping a bike lane will calm traffic as well. Simonsen said cul-de-sacs interfere with the ability abil-ity to get from one place to another. People think of them as safe, but they "feed onto arterials, which then become unwalkable." As an alternative to cul-de-sacs, he showed a subdivision subdi-vision plan where the streets jogged around mildly, mild-ly, but connected to other streets and to a shopping center.

Simonsen also talked about parking as a shared utility. Each land use has different peak times for parking. A shopping center might be busiest in the evenings, while office buildings build-ings would have more cars parked in the day. Sharing the parking lessens the need for more parking lots.
