Changes in Draft 2 Historic Profile Growth Management
Forecast 2005-2025Frankfort for 5 Years; Lebanon for 20 Years
Population grows by 241 Dwelling Units grow by 93 2005-2010
Population grows by 1,200 Dwelling Units grow by 462 2010-2015
Population grows by 2,525 Dwelling Units grow by 971 2015-2025
2005-2025 • Population growth of 3,966 [24% on 16,432] • Added dwelling units of 1,525 • Growth Management!!!
Hamilton County 11,142 pop. increase [68%] Another Scenario of Higher Growth
3 Options [1 recommended] • Location-specific districts for 100% of growth area • Site/ subdivision plan for 100% growth area • 2 districts + “blank slate” + specific regulations
continued [1] National Recreation & Park Association sets standards, based on residential population generated by a development, for both developed [active recreation or other public use] and undeveloped [e.g., passive park] space. This excludes yard and setback requirements, buffers beyond the ROW, and storm water management areas and environmentally sensitive areas if not a park.
Summary Future Land Use • Extension of conventional zoning in built-up areas • All planned developments in growth area [10,585 ac] • 2 location-specific districts • PBD at SR 28 and I 65 • OS [park, working landscapes, environmental protection] • Remaining land uses as “floating zones” regulated by zoning • OS = 30% outside planned developments + on-site requirements [15% plus higher in residential] • Estimate 44-47% OS in growth area • UGB enforced by County outside of Frankfort City limits
Density in Units/ AcreResidential in DU’sNon-Residential in SF based on FARBased on “Net Developable” Acreage [Gross-OS]
Performance Zoning Minimum score for entitlement = 75 [?] Alternate is full discretion of Planning Commission as to points
Missing Maps Draft 2 Bicycle Paths in Thoroughfare Plan Utilities Hydrology [stormwater] Airport Development Plan Future Land Use Map
Bicycle Transportation Policies • Connect to greenways and parks • Means for lockable parking • 6’ lanes and marked [solid white line + logo] • Motor vehicular speed and Buffers • 25 MPH in built-up areas • 40 MPH outside • > 40, then protective buffer • Accessible by bus [front rack] • Promote offices/ industries/ retail as “bicyclist-friendly” • Portland, OR, provision of lockers and showers • Frankfort as a “Cool City”
Hypothetical Build-Out at Minimum [20%] residential and maximum other uses – Not a Future Land Use Map • OS = protecting stream bed, noise buffer near airport, SR 28 buffer, and park [need prime agric lands] • PBD = concentrated at key intersection [SR 28 / I 65] • PRD = mostly adjoining Jeffersonville • PCD = proximate to PRD’s • NOTE WELL: OS understated in that each planned development has an OS requirement
Hypothetical Build-Out at Maximum [45%] residential and minimum other uses – Not a Future Land Use Map
