Depending on how the property develops in terms of densities and the design of the streets, there are issues that have to be worked out.

Mr. Calthorpe felt if it was necessary in the future, the road could go through the trees and showed it on the drawing.

Mr. Calthorpe responded to comments on narrow streets. lie made it clear "one size does not fit all'. The street configurations and widths will be determined in the size most appropriate for the development and bike lanes will be put where they can best be accommodated. Bikes will be in the travel lanes for neighborhood streets and in connector streets, there will be designated bike lanes. There was a question about parking in Laguna West. He once gave a presentation at the Town Hall in Laguna West with 250 in attendance. He asked if anyone walked more than a block and a half and not one hand went up. The parking occurred curbside rather than in large parking lots. Many times curbside parking is lost 05/21/96 -11-
