HKGi ledan eight -month planning <br />process that drew on input from the public, market research, financial analysis, <br />developer reviews, and HKGi's uroan design and project experience. Furthermore, <br />because of the history of planning elforts in downtown Rosemount, HK Gi placed <br />additional emphasis on formulating a plan that the City could immediately begin <br />toimplement. <br /> <br />Downtown Rosemount is facing several imminent changes that will have a great <br />effecton the economic and physical landscape. Without sound strategies to guide the <br />City through changes such as the relocations of St. Joseph's Church and the Genz- <br />Ryan business; aredevelopmentproposalfor the Brockaway Glass Factory; a purchase <br />agreement for a key piece of downtown property; siting of a Dakota County library; <br />and future improvements to the downtown schools, such changes might either have a <br />detrimental effect on the downtown environment or might not be realized to their <br />fullest potential as catalysts for positive downtown redevelopment. <br /> <br />The planning process identified eight separate "focus areas" within the downtown. <br />Suchan approach allowed for a clearer evaluation of the opportunities and constraints <br />facing each area within downtown and will allow the City to systematically address <br />the many changes either in progress or on the horizon. <br /> <br /> <br />me COIffefJI of ~ti/;I condos was iJ unique rrdevelopment initiative that grew 0JJt of the planning process.
