City of Clute Livable Centers Study

Study Summary and Goals

The City of Clute lacks a central core and seeks to create an environment that will provide decent, safe, and affordable housing near transit stops, employment, educational and recreational opportunities connected not only by streets but also by sidewalks and dedicated pathways. The Livable Centers plan for the study area defines new, context-sensitive standards for the City of Clute that foster multi-modal access and connectivity, a mix of land uses, a diversity of housing options, and a sense of place. The study’s conceptual plan and associated recommendations encourage walkability, connection within and between nodes of community activity, and built environment strategies that support local economic development and employment. The study specifically focuses on:

• Improving access to multi-modal mobility in Clute; and
• Identifying and providing solutions to give the Clute Study Area a sense of place.
