The City of Bexley will be launching the Commercial/Streetscape Design Guidelines update this spring. This process seeks to re-envision the current Main Street Design Guidelines by establishing overarching guidelines for core commercial areas in Bexley and providing specific standards tailored to the unique contexts of East Main Street, North Cassady Avenue, and East Livingston Avenue.
These guidelines will enhance and maintain the vitality of the City’s commercial areas. Guided by a Design Guidelines Steering Committee and following a well organized public engagement process, the planned outcome will result in a reader-friendly and highly-illustrative Commercial Design Guidelines document that will establish standards for future redevelopment. Guidelines will be contextually appropriate to Bexley and align with the City’s long-term vision and goals.
This process will kick off on April 23 with a walkability study and community keynote by Jeff Speck, author of Walkable City, around the theme “Building a More Walkable Bexley.” Keep an eye on bexley.org and the Bexley Blast for more info soon!
