CITY CENTRE AREA PLAN | LAND USE CONCEPT & POLICIES
• Business Enterprise uses will be located along the Barnet Highway corridor and in the Christmas Way area. The designation will accommodate a variety of employment generating land uses that require access to major roads and are needed to support a vibrant downtown (e.g., production, distribution, and repair). • To meet the local and regional retail needs of residents, General Commercial uses will primarily be situated along Lougheed Highway as this area is easily accessible by vehicle. • Small scale Neighbourhood Commercial uses on the periphery of the Core will support the day-to-day shopping needs of residents in areas experiencing residential growth. • Anchored by Town Centre Park and the Coquitlam River Park, the parks system will comprise a network of parks, neighbourhood greenways, and natural areas that will connect established neighbourhoods to the Core and provide both passive and active recreational opportunities. Improved pedestrian and cycle access to the Coquitlam River will further enhance recreational opportunities for residents.
