Contacts/Reviews: Meet with local planners or zoning administrators to <br />obtain and discuss land use plans, zoning, roadway changes and any city- <br />assisted development efforts. Discuss with city planners or administrators <br />each City's policy or attitude about promoting transit-oriented development. <br />Coordinate information gathering with the subconsultant preparing the <br />development forecasts (Task 2.2.1). Inspect each station area site and vicinity. <br />Tour the general area of each station to understand the pattern of land use and <br />development. Review the aerial and other photography prepared previously. <br /> <br />Review metropolitan and county development policies with representatives of <br />the Metropolitan Council, St. Cloud Area MPO, and each county. <br /> <br />Review the draft products with each city and with the NCDA. <br /> <br />c. Work Products: Recommended policies and actions that each city may take to <br />promote transit-oriented development. Text evaluating the relationship <br />between this project and the metropolitan planning policies of the Twin Cities, <br />the counties outside the Twin cities Metropolitan Area, and the St. Cloud <br />Planning District. <br /> <br />d. Schedule: This work will be completed by July 31. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Task 2.2 <br /> <br />STATION AREA PLANNING AND DESIGN <br /> <br />Subtask 2.2.1: Introduction and Inventory <br /> <br />a. Goal: Collect background materials, including plans, maps, and studies <br />intended to document existing conditions. This information may have been or <br />is currently being collected by various team consultants, but an effort has been <br />made to organize this collection through a memorandum to the team members <br />from BRW dated 4/15/99. During this phase, station functional requirements <br />will be determined, ie define intermodal transfer requirements, platform <br />design criteria, parking needs and expected riderships. <br /> <br />b. Contacts/Reviews: Visit the municipalities at each proposed station location <br />to meet their staff members, introduce the station area planning team and <br />review the proposed project design process. We would also use this meeting <br />to learn each City's process for review. This first contact would be <br />coordinated through the City Administrator for each of the Cities where <br />stations are proposed to be located, and include: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Anoka <br />Becker <br />Big Lake <br /> <br />Clear Lake <br />Coon Rapids <br />Elk River <br /> <br />Fridley <br />Minneapolis <br />Ramsey <br /> <br />Rice <br />St. Cloud <br />
