Petaluma Municipal Code § 5.10 Glossary

The design and construction of a new or reconstructed street or alley shall comply with the standards of this

Section applicable to the street type or alley identiMed on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plans.

Each approved subdivision or other development shall provide for the “fair share” construction on the site of all

portions of streets shown on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plans with required alignments. The relocation of a

required street alignment may be allowed through the review of a speciMc subdivision or parcel development

proposal, provided that the alternative alignment and proposed development shall:

A. Comply with all the standards of this code applicable to the original street alignment (for example, urban

standards, architectural standards, landscape standards, and the thoroughfare standards); and

B. The alternative alignment maintains connections with all other streets that intersected the subject street in its

original alignment.

C. The alternate alignment meets the block perimeter requirements in Section 4.10 (Urban Standards Table).

D. An alternative alignment to the layout shown on the Thoroughfare Regulating Plan may be approved by the

decision making body as part of a future subdivision or other development if the alternative is found to be a

superior layout and maintains consistency with the intent and overall circulation objectives for all modes of

transportation.

A. Thoroughfares are intended for use by vehicular and pedestrian traOc and to provide access to lots and open

spaces.

B. Thoroughfares shall generally consist of vehicular lanes and public frontages.

C. Thoroughfares shall be designed in context with the urban form and general intention of the transect zones

through which they pass.

1. Within the more urban transect zones (T3 through T6) pedestrian comfort shall be a primary

consideration of the thoroughfare design. Design conNict between vehicular and pedestrian movement

generally shall be decided in favor of the pedestrian.

2. Within the most rural transect zones (T1 and T2) pedestrian comfort shall be a secondary consideration

of the thoroughfare design. Design conNict between vehicular and pedestrian movement generally shall be

decided in favor of the vehicle.

D. Thoroughfares shall be designed to accommodate the types of vehicles expected to use each thoroughfare

on a daily basis. Occasionally, large vehicles are expected on all thoroughfares. All thoroughfares shall allow these

vehicles to safely pass without major diOculty. It is expected that large vehicles may encroach on the opposing

lane when making turning movements.

E. Additional Design Considerations. Other factors that may need to be considered in the application of

thoroughfare assemblies in transect zones include the following:

1. Topography. Thoroughfares that traverse steep slopes may need to incorporate additional design

consideration for such elements as drainage facilities, additional width for bicycle lanes on the uphill side of

the thoroughfare, etc.

2. Truck Access. Thoroughfares that provide access to high volumes of large trucks may need additional

design considerations to mitigate potential negative ePects on walkability.

3. Bus Service. Thoroughfares that will serve as public transit or school bus routes may need additional

design considerations, including, but not limited to, the location of bus stops.

4. Fire/Emergency Access. Additional design considerations may be needed to accommodate Fire/Emergency

Access, including, but not limited to, the location of rolled curbs and bulb-outs to accommodate Mre truck

outriggers.

F. All lane dimensions shall be measured to the face of the curb. Where no curb and gutter is provided, the lane

dimension shall be to the edge of the pavement. For Yield movement types, lane dimensions assume two-way

traOc and are for a single lane accommodating two-way traOc.

G. Shared lanes with sharrow markings on the travel lanes or a bicycle boulevard, a road shared by bicycles and

vehicles, are allowed and may be required on streets with a design speed of 25 mph or less.

Movement types are intended to assist in the selection of the appropriate thoroughfare design for the necessary

level of pedestrian and bicyclist safety and comfort at any given location. Design speed is the primary determinant

of movement type.

Following is a list of movement types:

A. Yield. Drivers must proceed slowly, with extreme care, and must yield to approaching traOc when vehicles are

parked on both sides of the thoroughfare creating essentially one through lane. A Yield Thoroughfare is the

functional equivalent of traOc calming. In addition to Yield movement use on normal thoroughfares, this

movement is used for Alleys and Rear Lanes. For these applications, the primary purpose is access to rear loaded

driveways/access for residential and commercial property. The 12' travel lane for Rear Lanes can be conMgured for

one-way or two-way operation. When used for two way travel, parking is required on both sides of street in order

to facilitate the Yield Movement Type and drivers exiting garages or driveways will have to yield to those vehicles

occupying the lane therefore the number of properties connected to the Rear Lane should be considered. Parking

in Alleys and Rear Lanes should only occur in driveways or parking structures to allow access for trash collection,

service trucks and emergency access. Design speed is less than 20 mph.

B. Slow. Drivers can proceed carefully with an occasional stop to allow a pedestrian to cross or another car to

park. The character of the thoroughfare should make drivers uncomfortable exceeding the design speed due to

the presence of parked cars, sense of enclosure from buildings and street trees, tight turning radii, and other

design elements. Design speed is 25 mph.

C. Low. Drivers can generally expect to travel without delay at the appropriate design speed. Thoroughfare

design supports safe pedestrian movement at the higher design speed. This movement type is appropriate for

thoroughfares designed to traverse longer distances or connect to higher intensity locations. Design speed is

30-35 mph.

D. Suburban. This is a conventional thoroughfare design in which drivers can expect a separation of modes, (i.e.,

bike lanes, walking paths and roads) allowing automobiles to travel unimpeded by pedestrians or walkability

concerns. This movement type is rarely used in T3 through T6 transect zones, but may be needed when a

thoroughfare crosses through T1 or T2 transect zones. Design speed may be above 35 mph.

The design criteria for Yield, Slow, and Low Thoroughfares shall be commensurate with local thoroughfares.

Design speeds higher than 35 mph shall not be used in areas intended to support moderate or high levels of

pedestrian or bicycle activity due to concerns with safety and comfort.

A. Street design of narrow streets and compact intersections requires designers to pay close attention to the

operational needs of transit, Mre and rescue, waste collection and delivery trucks. For this reason, early

coordination with transit, Mre and rescue, waste collection and other stakeholder groups is essential.

B. More regular encroachment of turning vehicles into opposing lanes will occur at compact intersections.

Therefore, frequency of access, traOc volumes and the speeds on intersecting streets at those intersections must

be considered when designing intersections. For Mre and rescue, determination of the importance of that street

for community access should be determined, e.g. primary or secondary access.

C. The designer should use turning templates or software to evaluate intersections to ensure adequate

operation of vehicles can occur. Location of on street parking around intersections should be evaluated during this analysis to identify potential conNicts between turning vehicles and on street parking. Bike lanes and on-street

parking will increase the ePective curb return radius, when curb extensions are not employed, by providing more

room for the wheel tracking of turning vehicles.

D. The following table provide the allowed curb radius range by movement type and speed. The dimensions

require the provision of an ePective curb radius and/or mountable curbs that meet the needs of Mre and

emergency access.

A. General to All Transect Zones

1. The public frontage is the area between the curb of the vehicular lanes and the Property Line/ROW. The

public frontage contributes to the character of the transect zone, and includes the types of sidewalk, curb,

planter, and street trees.

2. Public frontages shall be designed and allocated within transect zones as shown in Table 5.10.060.A-B

3. Within the public frontages, the prescribed types of public planting and public lighting shall be as shown

in Tables 5.10.060.C-D. The spacing of the public planting may be adjusted with the approval of the Director

to accommodate speciMc site conditions.

B. SpeciMc To Transect Zones T1, T2, T3

1. The public frontage shall include trees of various species, naturalistically clustered, as well as understory.

2. The introduced landscape shall consist primarily of native species requiring minimal irrigation,

fertilization and maintenance. Lawn shall be permitted only with approval by the Director.

C. SpeciMc To Transect Zones T4, T5, T6

1. The introduced landscape shall consist primarily of durable species tolerant of soil compaction.

D. SpeciMc To Transect Zones T4

1. The public frontage shall include trees planted in a regularly-spaced allee pattern of single or alternated

species with shade canopies of a height that, at maturity, clears at least one Story.

E. SpeciMc To Transect Zones T5, T6

1. The public frontage shall include trees planted in a regularly-spaced allee pattern of single species with

shade canopies of a height that, at maturity, clears at least one

Story. At retail frontages, the spacing of the trees may be irregular, to avoid visually obscuring the shopfronts.

2. Streets with a Right-of-Way width of 40 feet or less shall be exempt from the tree requirement.

F. See Section 4.60 (Landscape and Utility Standards) for additional standards for landscaping and utilities

within public frontages.
