  1. Strategy Analysis Prepared for: Envision Utah Prepared by: Quality Growth Efficiency Tools (QGET) Technical Committee

  2. Overview • Contributors • Limitations • Context • Motivations • Challenges • Strategy Analysis

  3. Contributors • 88 Cities • 10 Counties • 2 Metropolitan Planning Organizations • 5 State Agencies • Psomas Engineering • Fregonese Calthorpe Associates

  4. Limitations • Work in progress • Conservative estimate of benefits • Prepared at the regional scale • Site or project specific inferences should not be made • Limited scope • Transportation, air quality, land use, water, and infrastructure costs

  5. Quality Growth Strategy Insert FREGOs last slide - 3D QGS Layers: Constrained Lands Critical Lands Infrastructure Centers and Corridors New Developed Lands Re-Developed Lands

  6. Baseline Depicts how the region is likely to develop based on recent plans • Salient Characteristics • Refinement of past work (2nd revision) • Includes the addition of approximately one million more people by 2020 • Snapshot of the future based on state and regional plans • Based on trends of the past 20-30 years

  7. Strategy Depicts how the region is likely to develop based on adherence to Envision Utah’s goals and strategies • Salient Characteristics • Includes addition of approximately one million more people • Depicts impacts of voluntary, interjurisdictional cooperation • Reflects market-based housing mix • Requires additional water conservation and telework • Consistent with previously expected population and employment trends at the county-level • Requires incremental changes from current development patterns

  8. The pursuit of this strategy is motivated by the common and regional nature of many of our challenges. We share the same roads, airshed, water resources, and natural assets. We have an enviable quality of life, but we have major challenges.

Seattle 34% Minneapolis 47% Boston 21% Portland 33% New York 17% Chicago 31% San Francisco 32% Salt Lake City 59% St. Louis 27% Denver 27% Las Vegas 64% Los Angeles 29% San Diego 58% Atlanta 36% Dallas 32% Miami 28% Challenge #1: Congestion Percent Increase in Roadway Congestion: 1982-1996 *Congestion levels are estimated based on cars per road space Source: Texas Transportation Institute. Urban Roadway Congestion: 1998

  10. Challenge #2: Air Quality SLC-Ogden Metro Area

  11. Challenge #3: Housing Prices Housing Price Index for Repeat-Sales of Existing Homes Source: Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight

  12. Challenge #4: Loss of Farm Land 1982-1997 Source: 1982 & 1997 Census of Agriculture

  13. Challenge #5: Infrastructure Costs Infrastructure Costs Collector $6 Million/Mile Arterial $16 Million/Mile Light Rail $20 Million/Mile Water Transmission $690 Thou/Mile Sewer Transmission $70 per Foot State of Utah appropriated $955 Million in FY 2000 for Transportation and Water Projects

  14. Strategy Analysis • Land Use -- Conserves More Land • Housing -- ProvidesMore Choice, Market Driven • Transportation -- More Efficient, Less Congestion • Air Quality -- Lower Emissions • Water Demand -- Reduces Consumption • Infrastructure Cost -- Requires Less Money

  15. Land Consumption

  16. Agricultural Land Converted to Urban Use

  17. Housing Mix: Current and 2020

  18. Vehicle Miles of Travel Per Day:Current and 2020

  19. Transportation Investment: 1997-2020

  20. Population Within 1/2 Mile of Rail Transit: 2020

  21. Transportation ComparisonPercent Difference Between Strategy and Baseline: 2020

  22. Total Emissions: Current and 2020

  23. Emissions ComparisonPercent Difference Between Strategy and Baseline: 2020

  24. Water Demand: Current and 2020

  25. Per Capita Water Use: Current and 2020

  26. Total Infrastructure Costs: 1998-2020

  27. Quality Growth Commission and Envision Utah • Dedicated to preserving quality of life present in Utah • Jointly funded six quality growth demonstration projects • Envision Utah will benefit from Commission’s work in the coming months to define quality growth • Continued collaboration is essential
