. A map titled" Trend Development 1999-2020" was also produced to graphically depict where these development projects would potentially take place. Projected Growth of Trend Employment: . A table was then created which calculated employment in the City over the twenty year period. The 1997 MN Dept of Economic Security figure was used as the base for the employment number. To this base was added the number of employees associated with a build out of current or proposed 1999 projects. The total number of projected employment was calculated by multiplying the area of the parcels by the number of employees with a certain percentage of building coverage for the Future Land Use assigned to a parcel. This total amount was then divided equally by twenty and added cumulatively to each year from 2000-2020. For example: Business /Retail. equivalent to future land use designation of B (Business) 400 sq. it per employee with 30% building coverage Office - equivalent to future land use designation of B (Business) 248 sq. it per employee with 100% building coverage. (note that Business/retail and Office land use categories are each given an equal split of the vacant developable land designated with Future land Use of B) Light industrial/flex - equivalent to future land use designation of I (Industrial) 450 sq. it per employee with 30% building coverage . The table provides a breakdown of the projected employment by F AZ and by the type of commercial/industrial land use. . The map titled" Trend Development 1999-2020" graphically depicts where these development projects would potentially take place. 2. Concentrated Development . City staff reviewed the City Existing Land Use Map for reference and identified what types of redevelopments may be undertaken over the next 20 years. There was no distinction made for land which is currently used and land which is vacant and developable. . Each redevelopment site was identified as being either an office, light industrial/flex or a retail project. In addition, the following data was assigned to each site: a) estimate of the current number of jobs where there is currently activity at a site b) estimated year for development at a site. . Concentrated Development was examined in two parts as above in the Trend Scenario; First, the projected growth in residential units from 2000-2020, and secondly, the projected growth of employment over the same time period. In both cases, the underlying Future Land Use assigned to each parcel of vacant developable land was used to formulate the number ofresidential units that each parcel could support or the number of new jobs. . Each parcel in the GIS base was placed into one of three Fiscal Analysis Zones (F AZ) as in the Trend Scenario operation. Projected Growth of Concentrated Residential Units: . A table was created which calculated the number of units in the City over the twenty year period. The process used for the Concentrated Development Scenario was identical to that used for the 3
