A GUIDE TO RETAIL IMPACT STUDIES <br />PRESENTATION OF FINDINGS TO THE COMMUNITY <br />The municipality should expect to receive a single document containing all the analyses and <br />assessments required above. This document should be accessible for the non-technical reader, <br />yet contain sufficient technical detail to allow for a meaningful review by the permitting authority, <br />and provide sufficient supporting evidence for the findings of fact and the conclusions of law that <br />the authority is charged to make in determining whether the proposed project will or will not <br />have an "undue adverse impact" on the comprehensive economic impact area. <br />The primary document should be supplemented with an Executive Summary, providing <br />highlights of the findings and pointing interested readers to specific locations in the primary <br />document for further review. In addition, appendices should be provided containing legible <br />worksheets, data source materials, and any external studies and surveys cited. <br />Finally, the analyst should be prepared to deliver one or more live presentations of the findings <br />and methodologies and provide a forum for questions to be asked and answered. <br />26 <br /> <br />
