Provide a structure of roads within Crown Isle that meet the requirement for both multi-modal mobility, as well as a hierarchy of roads including arterials. Work with Ministry of Transportation and Transit to establish and develop a new intersection at Ryan Rd and the future extension of Royal Vista Way when transportation demand requires. Consult with BC Transit and the Comox Valley Regional District transit service to explore a transit network within the LAP area that provides for safe and convenient linkages to the rest of the region. Prioritize pedestrians in the transportation network, combining the functionality of parks and greenways with the street and sidewalk network to make walking the highly desirable mode of mobility in the neighbourhood, support socializing and experiencing natural areas as part of the transportation concept. Consider permitting Net Zero Emission Vehicles (NZEVs, also known as Low Speed or Neighbourhood Vehicles) in accordance with Provincial regulations, on streets in the portion of lands within vicinity of the golf course to further minimize the need for private automobiles.

8. Ensure development servicing is of sufficient capacity and standards in according with the OCP and in coordination with the regional service delivery model. 9. The LAP shall include clarity of phasing of infrastructure and parkland dedications.
