A New Environment
Once infrastructure improvements are completed, the environment you were used to will have a different appearance.
Many roadway projects involve adding additional lanes, which could mean a narrower space between traffic and your place of business. Driveways could be more or less steep once a roadway is tied back to the elevation of the property.
Curbs, sidewalks and associated landscaping could be at a higher or lower elevation. Removal of trees and other landscaping may have been necessary, as well as changes to lights and signs.
Where possible, the City tries to mitigate these impacts and add aesthetic interest with new landscaping or architectural elements. All changes occur within City Codes and standards.
