The community vision identifies a need for low traffic volume, minimized speed, and a safe enjoyable community for walking and bicycling that is accessible to the disabled. The downtown, which is intersected by US 41, is proposed as pedestrian friendly with a mix of uses and small businesses. The community plan seeks to promote additional commercial development in the downtown area instead of along SR 674 and Shell Point Road.
