THOUSAND OAKS CIVIC ARTS PLAZA TIMOTHY HAYWARD ◦ LD3 ◦ BEHR ◦ SUMMER 2020 Page 9 LIMIT OF WORK

The limit of work, represented in the shaded areas to the left will be broken down into 4 general areas to help digest the complexities of the entire site. 24

L ZONE 1: This northeastern area contains a parking

lot A that can be removed due to the main parking structure in the back that already provides ample M room and ADA access. B This area also has the

19 existing main entrance that leads to the second K level of the Civic Arts Plaza. C

E 26 25 ZONE 2: This area has the prime rib of open space, clear of protected oaks E. It also represents

A the area with most need of an improved entrance to the first floor City Hall, F and potential to connect to the second level via a staircase. G 15 21

F ZONE 3: This sloping area H is the quietest and

20 G most tucked away. It also has a ramp from the third floor that is often used as an exit from the main 1 6 theaters. I This area also has back access parking lot for maintenance and other functions that will be left 9 11 alone. J C 12 7 16 8 19 10 ZONE 4: The main consideration in this area is 23 Thousand Oaks Blvd. and the pedestrian/vehicular 2 considerations at the main intersections, Dallas

13 13 Drive K and the Lakes Drive L , as well as thru

traffic along the busy Thousand Oaks Blvd. M 14 17
