<br />- <br /> <br />-,,- <br /> <br />Arroyo just north of the Bernal Property, and other cultural resource sites have <br />also been found at the Bernal Property. Respectful interpretive programming <br />could be created in the linear meadow between the Arroyo and the finger <br />tributary just south of Bernal Avenue. Site improvements might include trails <br />with signs that tell the story of the Native Americans of the region and a "council <br />circle" (place for story-telling). <br /> <br />10. Open Space - The majority of land within the Phase II Planning Area is to be <br />preserved and restored with native plant communities, including woodlands, <br />meadows, wetlands, and stream corridors. The planting of native forests and <br />woodlands arranged in linear groves that define long meadow habitats are <br />to create the structure of this landscape. The mature form of the landscape <br />aesthetic will develop over a period of years as the public facility projects <br />are developed. <br /> <br />The open space component of the Phase II Plan Area is planned to create the <br />identifying character of the Bernal Property, and to help define the sites for <br />community facilities and trail corridors. The open space framework is to further <br />provide settings, within which the Grand Park design strategies presented in the <br />following chapter can be implemented. <br /> <br />11. Park and Recreational Uses - Park and recreational uses could include lighted <br />and unlighted sports fields, tennis, children's playgrounds, amphitheater, <br />botanical garden, arboretum, public art, memorial groves and gardens, lakes <br />and ponds, dog park, bird sanctuary, specialty gardens, maintenance yard, and <br />related recreational uses and facilities. <br /> <br />12. Park-and-Ride Commuter Parking Lot - The Pleasant on General Plan identifies <br />several locations within the City, including the Bernal Property, for the possible <br />future development of park-and-ride lots to serve Tri-Valley commuter ride- <br />sharing and regional transit systems. The only remaining General Plan site along <br />the 1-6BO Corridor for a potential lot is on the Bernal Property next to the l-6BOI <br />Bernal Avenue southbound on-and off-ramps. <br /> <br />13. Public Utilities - A variety of public utilities and related improvements will be <br />needed to facilitate development of the Planning Area. These include primarily <br />water, wastewater, flood control, storm water quality, gas and electrical services <br />and communication systems, <br /> <br />14. Trails - Multi-use trails are planned to accommodate leisure walking, jogging, <br />bicycling, and access for emergency and open space maintenance vehicles to <br />all major public facilities. Multi-use trails are to connect to the regional trail <br />system. Secondary trails are to connect the multi-use trails to all other on-site <br /> <br />[20 Land Use Element <br />
