Economic Market Analysis

Examine the potential market for commercial, industrial, and residential development in and around Route 44 and propose a future business profile for the study area  based on what the market would support

Analysis of Land Use, Environmental Constraints, and Zoning Assessment

Document existing opportunities and constraints for future land use change in the study area. Constraints are things like wetlands and steep slopes where development should not happen. Opportunities may be things like availability of sewer service where development can be more easily supported. The zoning assessment will look at what the regulations allow now and how that will affect land use in the future. It will also identify and recommend areas for change to the regulations.

Focus Area Development Concepts

Present a map of possible development concepts for land use in the focus areas. These will be defined ‘nodes’ where the community would like to see development be concentrated in the future

Transportation System Assessment

Assess the conditions of the transportation system and the surrounding environment as they currently exist. This includes roads, transit routes, sidewalks, paths, and greenways

Interchange Assessment

Assess the I-384-Route 44-Route 6 interchange and the surrounding environment as it currently exists and consider what barriers and opportunities it creates for future development along Route 44

Vision Strategic Plan

Integrate the community vision for land use, with the recommendations for the development ‘nodes’, preservation areas, the market profile, and transportation system components into a complete vision strategic plan for the study area. Complement this with a set of steps for how to put the plan’s recommendations into action.
