19.33.030 Public sidewalk requirements.
A. These standards apply to properties that front on a public street with a designation of TOD, pedestrian, connector or residential mixed-use as shown in Map 33-1. The standards apply when a development is required to install street and alley improvements in accordance with EMC 13.68.020, or as amended. This includes both new development and expansions or alterations of an existing use.
1. Public Sidewalk Standards for Designated Streets.
a. Sidewalks shall be installed on all frontage on public right-of-way, except when authorized within an easement by the city engineer.
b. Sidewalk Width. Sidewalks shall provide frontage zone, pedestrian clear zone, landscape/furniture zone, and total minimum width consistent with Table 33-2.
2. Undesignated Streets. The standards in this subsection do not apply to streets shown as “undesignated.” Sidewalk improvement standards for undesignated streets are based on the requirements in EMC Title 13 and the city’s design and construction standards and specifications.
