Existing Conditions Assessment. We will work with County staff and key stakeholders to assemble all relevant data, existing plans, GIS information, and guidelines and policies in the County as a basis for our evaluation. We recognize that McHenry County already has an expansive sidewalk system in the downtowns and on some roadways. Creating connected places and accessibility for all users will be important to measure and observe in existing conditions. Three heavily used regional trails allow for inter-community travel. Evaluating who is using these, how and where they connect, and further desires of connectivity from these trails will help establish some larger regional opportunities. We will also include relevant data that extends across the County boundaries to look at system connectivity and how people might be visiting from outside the boundaries. We will conduct field observations along major county roadways, key municipal roads, and state routes if necessary, to get a feel for existing Level of Stress analysis for bikers. We will develop maps in GIS adding our assessment to the County information. This will help us analyze where there are gaps and where there are opportunities for facilities. We will overlap the Green Infrastructure Trails Map and the previous planned facilities list from the 2040 Long Range Plan, as well as the previous county bike plan. We can start with the list of bicycle and pedestrian projects on page 66 of the 2040 plan since these were already previously acknowledged as priorities as a base for this plan. The existing conditions summary report will provide an overview of data with maps that speak to the physical and experiential aspects of walking and biking in the County. We will conduct a conceptual bike Level of Traffic Stress exhibit to identify facilities types existing and desired by the residents. We will assess existing conditions using NACTO, XXXXXX, and Vision Zero guidelines. Specific conditions for review will include existing/planned bicycle and pedestrian facilities, traffic and access management data, roadway types, speeds, curb-to-curb, and rights-of-way, pavement data and potential flooding, crash and safety data, level of stress analysis, mobility constraints, network gaps, community destinations, parks and open spaces, land uses, transit connections, and demographics and emerging trends.
Existing Conditions Assessment. The Consultant Team will inventory and analyze existing land use, transportation, and urban design conditions and plans along the corridor, and present the analysis graphically via maps and schematics. Land Use: the Consultant Team will document existing land use and building stock and analyze current constraints for redevelopment. The team will also analyze the cultural, historical & socio-economic characteristic of the corridor, and will examine the Comprehensive Plan to determine planned land use and redevelopment goals.
Existing Conditions Assessment. 2.1 Data Collection and Analysis Research comprehensive plan elements through the review of relevant documents, such as the existing adopted Comprehensive Plan, newly updated Transportation System Plan (TSP) and 2015 Urbanization Study, among others. Collect and synthesize existing data from the 2015 Urbanization Study, with a focus on updating data points (since 2015) for the following key indicators: • Sociodemographic data • Housing costs • Building permit data • Population growth forecasts • Land consumption rates • Sectors of employment Information collected through the City’s concurrent Economic Opportunities Analysis (EOA) process will also be incorporated into the review and synthesis of the economic elements of the 2015 Urbanization Study. In addition, data will be collected and analyzed around Sandy’s vulnerability to natural hazards. Exposure to natural hazards will be assessed through a review of historical trends, as well as projected future changes, based on the best available scientific information, model outputs, and existing research related to natural hazard impacts for the area. Work with the City of Xxxxx to determine the key variables that will be important to consider as well as the level of risk the City plans to address. Information from the synthesis of relevant background documents as well as analysis of demographics, land use, economic and housing trends, transportation, natural resources and natural hazard vulnerability, will be used to develop background reports that align with statewide planning goals. The reports will describe the comprehensive plan elements and underlying topics as they relate to the City of Xxxxx: What are the City’s assets? What trends are driving how the topic has changed and will continue to change the community? Examples of topics include: • Housing • Natural Hazards and Resiliency • Community and Culture • Transportation and Infrastructure • Governance and Growth Management • Parks, Trails and Natural Resources The Background Reports will be presented in non-scientific language and accessible to a wide audience. The Background Reports will use a combination of narrative, maps, tables and graphics to convey key information and ultimately constitute as the introduction to each chapter in the updated Comprehensive Plan document. A two- page, infographic-rich “Community Profile” will also be developed to make the information more accessible to the public. This information will be used at outreach events an...
Existing Conditions Assessment. The Xxxxxx-Xxxx team will conduct a multi-phased existing conditions assessment to understand initiatives completed to date and evaluate the previous recommendations against anticipated future development.

Existing Conditions Assessment. Architexas and its consultants will further visually inspect the existing conditions of the building and site and will document detailed deficiencies that require repair, restoration, or replacement. This documentation will be used to develop selective demolition documents and allow us to illustrate the limits of work where repair is required on materials like masonry, wood flooring, doors and windows, wood trim, and plaster, etc. Dallas | Austin www. xxxxxxxxxx.xxx 0000 Xxxxxxx Xx.
