Task 3: Land Use, Housing, and Character The purpose of this task is to establish the necessary policy guidance that will be used in making decisions about the compatibility and appropriateness of individual developments within the context of the larger community. The land use plan will serve as the City's policy for directing ongoing development and managing future growth, preserving valued areas and lands, and protecting the integrity of neighborhoods, while also safeguarding and enhancing community character. The character component will also look first to development form and secondly to the aesthetic treatments that improve the appearance of the visual environment. The prime consideration in development form is whether it helps to create an environment that is both functional and attractive (factors include the scale and bulk of buildings, their three dimensional form and site placement, location of parking and service areas, amount of imperviousness/landscape surface, and the amount of open space). This chapter will be organized to include sections to address the following: • Resource Inventory, to include the collection and analysis of available source data relating to natural resources, hazardous areas, and special areas or sites. Community design, which will be integrated with the land use analysis and recommendations. KKC's community character approach redefines land use in terms of Exhibit Scope of Services (03/12/07) Page 3 of 13 ---PAGE BREAK--- visual scale; intensity of activities; and the relationship between buildings, landscaped areas, paved surfaces, and land dedicated to vehicle storage/circulation. Therefore, land use and community design are interdependent and directly related. • Housing to include an assessment of existing conditions and plans for addressing existing and expected future deficiencies and needs. • Property rights discussion to express how the plan meets the needs of the community without imposing undue costs or violating the rights of property owners.

A reporting function will also be embedded in the program to provide a means of accountability. Optional - Appraisal of Implementing Regulations KKC may conduct a performance appraisal of the City's zoning and subdivision ordinances - as the plan's implementing regulations - to identify specific modifications that are necessary to implement the plan and the vision of the community. The appraisal will assess whether the codes include provisions that will allow them to perform so as to achieve the desired development outcomes. Since the codes are responsible for development form, this exercise is essential for the City to successfully implement its plan. Task Activities 1.
