Visioning Bellaire Urban Design and Beautification Conceptual Master Plan December 2016 Introduction

The Urban Design and Beautification Conceptual Master Plan for the city of Bellaire is the result of an intensive planning effort. Recognizing that the quality of the physical environment has a tremendous influence on the image of the City, the Urban Design and Beautification Conceptual Master Plan serves as a foundation for shaping the City fabric in support of its vision to enhance the overall quality of life for its residents. At its very essence, the Conceptual Master Plan is an assemblage of powerful ideas. This Master Plan provides guidelines to maintain the inherent beauty and unique characteristics of the city while, at the same time, identifying opportunities for improvement of the quality of the living environment.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

Stormwater interventions are a necessity in future efforts as flooding is a reality of residents and business owners in the city of Bellaire. Drainage and infiltration problems persist throughout the entirety of the city’s land, particularly at the

northern sites. A large portion of flooding CITY LIMITS is due to Brays Bayou and local storm sewer systems not able to hold the extreme volume of incoming stormwater.

CREATION OF BELLAIRE INTERSECTIONS

Since Bellaire is a grid-city, everyone experiences intersections. This creates opportunity to enhance the common factor among residents through physical enhancements and create common identity within the city.

The enhanced intersections seamlessly take care of several conflicts: connects the neighborhood sidewalks that are pulled back from the curb; takes care of grade change; provides ample space for safe crosswalks insuring accessibility; and, provides ample space for seating and art elements. These intersections encourage social interaction in the landscape while creating an opportunity for a public art program.

Acting as a major destination in the city of Bellaire, the urban village downtown functions as a “center of gravity”. The idea of this small mixed-use village focuses on 01 DASHWOOD local needs and businesses, rather than 02 03 attracting regional or national businesses. The area that encompasses the urban downtown village has great access, visibility and demographics. However, 06 two major challenges exist: parking and stormwater infiltration detention. These requirements become barriers to renewal 05 and redevelopment for the areas small 02 03 parcels and local businesses.
