Th~ request fQr participation is generally categonzed into tliree segments - Streetscape Elements, S~pplemental Streetscape and ReimUursemen.ts. Streetscape ~IementS Tha majority qf prqjected participation eQSts are the elements associated witll Streetscape impr.ovemer~ts. The specifications for hard st~rface improveme~Xs and the azchitectural design have been reviewed by 9tsff and found eonSi9tent with ex~sting streetacape improvements, The specif carion for gavers haS baen modi~ied to a full-d,eptll paver to ~liminate Uuclcling and cracking to reduce future ma.intenance costs. ~ Tlte la.rgest cor~ponent of the streetscap~ is the element described as au Arcade~Pa.vilio fro ' n nnng TIigh and Church StreetS. 1'hi~ element, depict~d in ~he attaclied diagram, is locatad on the devel.opment parcel adj~cent Yo bui outside of the public nght-of way, Th.e praposed improvements consist of a series of shuctures li~lced WiI'1~ overhead "weatl~er p~otecrion". Located at tl~e bus entrances on F~igh and Church Streets are two engineered truss situctures designad to support weather protection, each spar~ning an approximate 7S foot distance. The resultin~ arcade effect is consistent with the concepts of die eore area design standards, Tllere is a policy issue conceming particip~ti4n in the arcade/weather protection located on the develppment parcel. To date, the renewal prpgram has limited itS participation in weatk~er prot~crion system9 to a maximqm of. $160 per Iineal foot of at~nin~/rt}arqu~es attached to a building fron~ exte~dir~g over tlie sidewallc/right-of-way. The awning system attaclied to the arcade siructure and building facade on Cou~t Street are consistent with the existing program and are esnm~ted to be approximately with~n th~ participation cost. Altliough consistent with the objectives of the urban renewal p~an, ihe Agency haS not previously fi.~nded systerns out~ide the right-of-way located on a deve~opment parcel, l~ue to ihe uniq~e nature of ttie proposed public de~eloprtient of the block and tlie design constraintS impased by the bus access, staff supporte fµnding tlie arcade element frontii~g Churcli and II~~h Stceets. ~'urthermore, tlle locarion ef the arcade o~tsid~ of tlte right-of-way will provide a larger weather protected area without subjecting the City to a maintenance liabiliiy,
