GRIFFIN ROADIssues Solutions

Under-utilized parcels Add flexibility to type of uses and facilitate redevelopment

Inappropriate uses Change underlying land use and encourage recommended uses

Lack of identity Unified landscaping and signage, create regulations to achieve a

desirable built form

Speeding and high accident occurrence

Create enclosure of street space to slow traffic, reduce number of street

intersections

Dilapidated structures Seek funding for acquisition and demolition
