Alternative routes down the slope were examined but dismissed due excessive slopes or disturbance to existing trees. Kennard Ave. to Gladstone Ave. The proposed alignment follows an existing footpath south of the Sunrise All-Weather Field adjacent to East 4th. By positioning the trail on the north side of East 4th a street crossing at Kennard is not required. A normalized intersection layout is proposed at East 4th and Gladstone Ave. creating a safer, simplified cross walk. Park + Tilford Section Planning for the Spirit Trail alignment through the Park+Tilford parking lot is ongoing. Brooksbank to Lynnmouth Park The Spirit Trail crosses Brooksbank Ave. at East 3rd Street where we will install a pedestrian activated traffic signal. The Trail is located on the North side of East 3rd to avoid crossing the busy MEC parking lot entrance and to retain a large tree. Lynnmouth Park The Trail alignment within Lynnmouth Park provides a connection through the park outside the riparian area. F EBR UA RY

Although this will lead to the loss of 16 parking stalls a recent parking study indicates this will have limited impact as low occupancy rates were observed during nonevent times. Sunrise Field Gravel Vehicular access to the field will be relocated to the west to improve vehicular circulation and help eliminate gravel migration from the field to the trail. Stormwater The proposed trail is designed to create a swale to detain and infiltrate storm water run-off from the all-weather field. Improved Safety The improved intersection increases visibility making for a safer crossing. Section B - B Sunrise Field Gravel in Road FEBRUARY

Parking The existing angle parking stalls are changed to parallel stalls to accommodate the trail, eliminating 6 stalls. With increased bylaw enforcement the proposed changes are estimated to have similar parking rates. Habitat Enhancements Decreasing the width of the existing gravel path allows us to restore native plants and remove invasives. Habitat fencing will reduce access to control damage in this zone.

8 Lynn Creek Inter River Park- District of North Vancouver PARKS & USERS Lynn Creek travels through several parks, most of them lay within the District of North Vancouver with Lynnmouth Park being in the City of North Vancouver. The parks host a variety of users mostly in a naturalized environment that provides wildlife habitat. With the introduction of the Spirit Trail to Lynnmouth Park, the City is interested in understanding the current users and how we can safely integrate the Spirit Trail. Safety and ecological health are top priorities for the City.

Native Tree Relocation The City of North Vancouver relocated close to forty native conifers that were slated for removal from elsewhere in the city. FEBRUARY
