    Project identified a set of conceptual boulevard design guidelines for a

    mile stretch of 148th Ave SE/150th Ave SE in southeast Bellevue, Washington

    as part of the Eastgate/I-90 Land Use and Transportation Project and citywide Enhanced Rights of Way and Urban Boulevards Plan. The

    final document included a summary of existing conditions, an analysis of urban design principles, a review of

    material options and standard design practices, and graphic visualizations

    of possible long-term boulevard development. Recommended design criteria supported greater consistency

    and design quality, improved the experience for auto and non-auto users alike, and established a sense of identity

    for the surrounding community. Two alternatives were explored, one using existing signals infrastructure and one with a series of roundabouts replacing

    five key intersections.

    1. Reflect Bellevues Northwest character as a city in the park through exceptional landscape and community design.

    2. Celebrate the unique function of the corridor as a major thoroughfare in the Eastgate/I-90 planning area by incorporating public art and wayfinding.

    3. Use common design elements which express neighborhood and district character.

    4. Enhance neighborhood livability by increasing corridor plantings and pedestrian and bicycle facilities.

    5. Create no adverse impact on roadway efficiency.

    6. Improve the ecosystem by increasing tree canopy and employing natural drainage practices.

    7. Enhance economic competitiveness of the surrounding neighborhood.

    8. Use industry-wide best practices and high-quality design elements to the greatest extent possible.

    9. Consider maintenance and sustainability in the design.

    Designed a running network within the Rainier Valley using existing infrastructure and cultural

    capital. Final network consisted of a half marathon distance (13.1 miles) with shorter routes integrated within designated urban

    villages (Columbia City, MLK at Holly Street, and Rainier Beach). End products included digital

    3D models of the three urban villages, maps of community oriented uses on elevation profiles for each major route and digital renderings of potential future development along the routes.

    Worked with the City of Kenmore to produce a master plan to redevelop a peninsula on the northeastern shore of Lake Washington. Design solution reclaimed the peninsula land south of Highway-522 in an effort to expand

    and connect existing activity nodes north of the highway (a new Library and City Hall) to the water. End products included a site plan, a group produced 8 by 8 foot model of the site and an individual model of the peninsula. Project was recognized in an article by the Bothell Reporter in mid-March 2011.

    Site Visualization Plan

    The 15th Ave NE and NE 145th St intersection is a prominent location in the Subarea as heavy traffic travels through here each day. In addition, the City has identified this corner as a mixed-use node for the community. This site proved to be the more difficult of the two locations for two primary reasons. First, there is limited through access along the east-west corridor. Coupled with the decision to maintain some of the existing buildings, this meant that there were some basic circulation issues. The preserved uses are the Goodwill, the Park Ridge Nursing Home Center, and the homes in the southwest corner of the block.

    Changes to the site include: new land uses, more open space, increased pedestrian and vehicular access, improved street frontage, and centralized parking.

    Site Planning

    We envisioned creating more public spaces that are integrated with the streetscape and engaging diverse uses in the community. In this node, a flexible space to potentially house a farmers market, and a public fountain are imagined, enriching the local environment and enhancing access to public amenities.

    inovaCity of Covington Downtown Plan & Zoning Study

    Julia Walton was the project manager for the City of Covington Downtown Plan and Zoning Study. The City embarked on the Downtown Plan to integrate several disparate areas into one cohesive downtown, to build community identity, and develop a town center plan in a 500 acre-area of this relatively new City. The project included new street connections and infill development around multiple dispersed big box retail projects and linkages to natural systems in the downtown periphery. The project created a finer-grained vision for a Town Center area within the larger downtown to include a civic center, public gathering space, residences, businesses and smaller walking streets. Constituents included single family residents living in commercial zones, large property owners, national retailers, industrial property owners, and the local Economic Development Council. The plan was adopted in 2009 and the code and design standards were updated the following year to implement the Plan.

    2003 Downtown Plan Public Involvement & Meeting FacilitationJulia Walton was commissioned by the City of Covington to assist with public involvement for their downtown plan. Faced with strong citizen opposition, Julia assessed the Citys public involvement messages and methods, and

    designed and facilitated three public meetings to enable the project to move forward. The focus of the meetings was to build public understanding of the Downtown Plan from the basis created through the Citys vision, Comprehensive Plan, and public need for the project.

    Lake Stevens South Growth Framework PlanJulia served as project manager for the South Area Growth Framework Plan for the City of Lake Stevens. The project began as a master plan and became a project defining a growth framework plan for the City and the Rural Transition Area, or RUTA, immediately south of the current Urban Growth Boundary. The framework plan was formulated through an assessment of the Citys identified centers to support economic development of varying kinds. The Framework Plan assessed the physical and economic suitability of the South Area to support a jobs base within a framework which conserved the community heritage in the areas center, green roads, trails, and significant environmental features. The Framework Plan is being used to refine the future growth strategy for the City and to support a joint planning effort of the RUTA with the City of Snohomish. Prepared with CAI.

    Main Street/Axton Corridor Planned Action EIS City of FerndaleDeborah is leading a multi-disciplinary team to prepare a planned action EIS for the commercial area surrounding the main entrance to the City from Interstate 5. The project includes preparation of a master plan for the area that focuses retail, hotel, office, residential and open spaces within the master plan area in order to promote the Citys economic development goals and create a clear entry and identity for the Citys commercial center. Key issues include transportation, stormwater drainage, wetland and stream habitat, and land use.

    Understandingand Approach

    The inova team has developed a clear understanding of the project based upon the depth of our previous experience with the City of Covington, discussions with staff and examinations of City documents. Our approach and work plan is based upon City needs and our project understanding.

    The City is embarking upon the Northern Gateway Subarea Plan to meet demand for adequate land and services in Covington. Currently the land supply for perceived market demand (large format retail) does not exist within the UGA.

    The project will be accomplished in 3 phases. The end of the first phase presents a go/no go decision point of whether King County will accept an expansion of the UGA in the Notch. With County acceptance, the project will proceed as it is currently mapped while

    without County acceptance, the project will proceed at a reduced scale (considering only those lands inside the UGA on the south side of SR 18).

    The Northern Gateway Project offers a unique set of opportunities and challenges, which are summarized below. Some keys to project success include:

    Development of a credible case for UGA expansion in the Notch to meet demand for community and economic development, including consideration of alternate land configurations, rationales and phasing.

    The ability to conduct productive conversations with King County to explain the details of this project and to assess potential response prior to taking any formal action.

    Pearls: Historic District, Beach Square, Rose St., and Station Area

    neighborhood linkages

    January 03, 2012

    Henderson Corridor Create a safe, distinctive walking corridor.

    Develop signature lighting system for safety, identity, to link the Lake and Rail Station & key destinations. - Include major features (visible day and night) at MLK and at Beer Sheva Park that are visible from opposite ends, and create a sense of destination.

    - Locate intensified lighting along the south side of the street, and include: Distinctive elements at key crossings, destinations and

    walkways. Frequent soft lighting to create a continuous soft glow

    while managing glare

    Superblocks - Create E/W, N/S safe walkways through superblocks (creating blocks similar to elsewhere in Rainier Beach)

    Create signature physical gateways with consistent design

    Beer Sheva Park - Open entrance of Beer Sheva Park to create views to the Lake by re-landscaping

    - Consider revisions to parking and landscaping to open up views to park and lake, while protecting habitat.

    - Seek opportunities to improve access to swimming - Create safe walking connection to Atlantic City Urban Farm

    Activity Areas - Create activity and visual interest at key intersections and linkages (see Beach Square and Station Area recommendations)

    - Encourage retail/shops/restaurants in isolated areas between activity areas

    Station Area: Zoning Ideas to Increase Activity

    (1) Consider changing future land use map and zoning for MF or commercial to encourage more infill development near station, to increase consistency of zoning and promote infill. Consider transitions to existing SF development. Include in Station Area overlay.

    (2) Consider increasing height limits to increase density of residents.

    (3) Consider changes to promote more multifamily and/or live work in proximity to the station.

    (4) Consider allowing higher densities on areas not affected by steep slopes.

    (5) Work with Sound Transit to prioritize employment and housing development when these sites are made surplus.

    (6) Protect steep hillside potentially preserving as open space.
