PLAN GOALS

The Gateway Master Plan is about creating a vibrant, livable area that continues to aturact jobs and includes multiple options to get to work and other destinations safely and conveniently. The Gateway Master Plan creates an opportunity to build on existing assets while further integrating transportation and land use to direct the area’s growth towards a more socially, environmental, and economically sustainable future.

WHY A MASTER PLAN FOR THE GATEWAY?

With the scarcity of land and pace of growth and change, Pinellas County will need to include a well thought out strategy for redevelopment and reuse of existing sites within the Gateway in order to maintain its competitive advantage as a regional job center. 12% VACANT 88% DEVELOPED LAND

WHY A MASTER PLAN FOR THE GATEWAY?

Automobiles continue to dominate mobility within the County and trafgic congestion is a challenge for residents, employees, and visitors alike.

WHY A MASTER PLAN FOR THE GATEWAY?

While improvements have been made in reducing the crash rate, the rate of fatal and incapacitating accidents continues to be high, especially amongst bicyclists and

pedestrians. There is an opportunity to develop a multi-modal network that supports

economic vitality, and promotes safe, livable communities.

MASTER PLAN PRIORITES

SLIDE 18 1 8

Over the next 25 years, the Gateway will evolve into several distinct, sustainable, mixed-use districts that celebrate its regional geography and leverage its central location on Tampa Bay to retain and encourage job growth while providing new housing, services, and a host of amenities for employees, residents and visitors. Each district will include vibrant nodes that are connected to transit, with safe walkable and bikeable streets, trails and blueways. These new centers will be connected to existing residential neighborhoods and support quality of life while promoting community health and contributing to a robust regional economy. Ensuring a place that residents and employees will desire to live, work and stay today as well as in the future.

PLANNING & DESIGN PRINCIPLES

A SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT GATEWAY The Gateway will sustainably manage water, energy and other environmental resources and protect the diverse ecosystem that makes up the county's natural resources, and contributes to the county's public health, quality of life, and local economy. A CONNECTED GATEWAY The Gateway will be well connected to the rest of the region while improving the local connections and providing safe, efgicient and accessible access for all modes of travel. A VIBRANT GATEWAY Improve the Gateway’s appeal as a 24/7 place to live, work and play, by improving the quality of the urban experience and natural/open space amenities.
