Work Plan -FAST Phase II, Elk River, MN August 12, 2009 Page2of3 Task 3-Explore the Possibilities (October/November) 3.1 Facilitate visioning roundtable with City staff at HKGi office to build from phase I work and identify the parameters and possibilities for the full project area. Focus will be on developing a series of approaches to redevelopment, circulation, recreation, and open space. This could include re-exploration of certain aspects of the phase I plan. 3.2 Prepare illustrative concept diagrams for the approaches explored in 3.1. The concepts will each provide a unique approach to achieving overall project objectives. The concepts will illustrate: • Development patterns: HKGi will refine the alternative land use concepts to depict the land uses proposed with each concept. • Transportation systems: Each concept will include a depiction of all proposed transportation infrastructure including roadways, trails, and sidewalks. • Green infrastructure: Each concept will include a depiction of proposed parks, natural open spaces and greenway links. 3.3 Quantify development "yield" for each concept that identifies the yield of commercial space and households and forecasts jobs, population and development value. This task will identify the magnitude of development potential for each concept alternative as a way to compare and contrast them. 3.4 Facilitate review session with City staff at HKGi office to evaluate concepts. 3.5 Revise concepts based on meeting feedback. 3.6 11 /23/09 Facilitate concept review session with EDA/PC/CC for review and feedback. 3.7 Revise concepts based on meeting feedback. 3.8 Update project website and prepare project newsletter illustrating concept alternatives. 3.9 Facilitate public open house to provide an opportunity for the community to offer feedback on the concepts prior to refinement into a single alternative. 3.10 Prepare summary of community feedback.
