51 Physical Design & Walkability Implementation Strategies Short-term Time Frame Long-term Asset Category Implementation Strategies A1: Review off-street parking utilization; consider reducing off-street parking requirements for development and identify any under-used parking areas that could be used for development. A2: Use landscaping, art, and sidewalk furniture around the edges of parking lots to provide a buffer for pedestrians, or encourage temporary uses such as food trucks or outdoor cafes in parking areas adjacent to sidewalks A3: Consider extending the recent Third Street study recommendations, which were focused north of downtown, to Baraga A4: Use 2014 evaluation questions to identify additional opportunities for improvement, available online at A5: Explore funding options to bury all utility lines to create a better view down Baraga Avenue A6: Identify critical areas for heated sidewalks on ramps, stairs, or other potentially hazardous surfaces to improve pedestrian safety during winter A7: Enhance snow management practices to prevent interference with traffic calming and walkability design features A8: Consider amending the city zoning ordinance definition of alleyways to categorize by use and function. This categorization of alleyways will make it possible to distinguish between service-oriented (e.g. deliveries, trash pickup) and non-motorized uses (where pedestrian scale and activity should be allowed and encouraged). Tactical Creative Strategic
52 Environmental Sustainability Offer incentives and recognition to businesses and developers that pursue environmentally sustainable practices Pursue an alternative energy policy to improve efficiency and lessen environmental impact Use natural elements (e.g. trees, plants, rain gardens, etc.) to improve the environmental qualities of Baraga Avenue Enhance recycling options along Baraga Avenue

56 Environment Sustainability Implementation Strategies Short-term Time Frame Long-term Asset Category Implementation Strategies B1: Consider zoning standards that promote renewable energy and walkability B2: Create a reward and recognition program for businesses with the most energy efficient buildings B3: Consult the Guide to Purchasing Green Power Report in order to follow the correct process to transition to utilizing alternative energy. B4: Coordinate with the Marquette Board of Power and Light to identify opportunities for increasing the share of the city s energy coming from sustainable sources B5: Plant climate-resilient street trees along Baraga Avenue to create shade in the summer and to help break up wind in the winter. Additionally, these street trees will help beautify the space by introducing natural color B6: Plant natural wind screens (trees, bushes, etc.) where possible to reduce snow drifting and wind during the winter months B7: Install recycling bins near all trash cans to encourage recycling B8: Explore a storm water management feature within Father Marquette Park to provide a functional and aesthetic purpose Tactical Creative Strategic
57 Cultural Economic Development Brand Baraga Avenue as a cultural corridor by bringing the assets of the Children s Museum, Marquette County History Center, and historic county building outdoors Designate Baraga Avenue as an arrival destination to downtown Marquette Enhance opportunities for winter activities within the public realm

69 Entrepreneurship Future development/redevelopment efforts on Baraga Avenue should focus on provision of space for new and expanding businesses Review local ordinances as needed to allow nontraditional businesses such as food carts and street performers to operate on Baraga Avenue Take advantage of the new Crowdfunding law to attract and support entrepreneurs and local businesses to Baraga Avenue as well as to the larger downtown area Coordinate technology-related initiatives deriving from SmartZone expansion with future development along Baraga Avenue

93 Education Partner with local educational institutions to establish programming along Baraga Avenue Coordinate university housing initiatives with development on Baraga Avenue. Explore the potential of area institutions to offer courses downtown Source: nmu.edu
94 Education Implementation Strategies Asset Category Implementation Strategies Short-term Time Frame Long-term Tactical Creative Strategic H1: Showcase student projects, informational displays about area schools, and allowing school benefit fundraisers/sales to take place H2: Explore locating new housing for university students along Baraga Ave, either provided by NMU itself or in partnership through the private market. The demand among college-age students to live in vibrant, mixed-use environments has been demonstrated nationwide, and should be explored in the context of downtown Marquette H3: Consider the potential for creating classroom space in available downtown buildings either separately or in conjunction with a housing initiative
