<br /> <br />~ <br />I <br /> <br />nd tools developed for the Subregional Growth Study would be a rich resource for <br />:r and conducting the charrette. The Coalition has detailed and highly flexible <br />the least of which is a sophisticated socio-demographic database. There also <br />ortation model of the subregion, which has been focused out of the regional <br />del. This tool was developed as part of the surbregional growth study and is <br />other studies. <br /> <br />e area has always been identified as a critical area in the subregional growth <br />proximity to a policy-designated transitway and current redevelopment potential <br />eopportunity for conversion to a SAC. (See page 12 of the attached report.) Yet, <br />indirect impacts of the increased density would have sobering ramifications on <br /> <br />perspective then, a charrette focused on the Rosedale area would have <br />the boundaries of the site. It would serve to refine the subregional planning <br />be tapped by Coalition cities as a learning opportunity for replication or <br />other redevelopment sites in the subregion. <br /> <br /> <br />level, Roseville would be an excellent local partner for the Knight Program. City <br />experienced, and keenly interested in exploring new ideas. They ask <br />and are well versed in the concepts of Smart Growth. The city has the ability <br />track record for supporting initiatives like the charrette, then taking the <br />them at the local level. Beyond the staff, I believe you will find the local <br />interested and supportive of the charrette. <br /> <br /> <br />Design Center would be interested in participating in the charrette. Research fellows <br />architechlre, geography, architecture, and planning have been working on Smart <br />would be willing to share our resource base and insights. In addition to our <br />GIS database of the subregion, we have numerous aerial photographs <br />planning documents, and access to the regional and local resources. The Design <br />d also be interested in working with the Knight Program to develop an outreach <br />hat would be focused toward local officials. <br /> <br /> <br />cige and expertise of the Knight fellows and faculty would be a great boost to <br />regional, and local initiatives to implement Smart Growth principles. The Design <br />es the selection of Roseville for the fall charrette.
