12. 12 PART X: Summary Conclusions Refer to document [16 pp.] Note Well Hispanic 7-point program relevant to Spanish-speaking minority population [pp. 14-16]

13. 7-Points – Spanish-Speaking Communities of Frankfort English education for adults; bi-lingual support through key governmental operations until the success of English education Subsidized or free legal services in landlord-tenant relations, perhaps taking the form of arbitration or mediation resolutions. Active recreational [soccer, baseball] and cultural programs aimed at the needs of Hispanic people. The acquisition and conversion of Kyger ES and the defunct Wal-Mart as a public facility for community meeting, recreation, health care, and cultural/ art exhibitions and workshops, but inclusive of Hispanic needs, should be explored. Seek the cooperation of existing lenders to extend credit to Hispanic households and businesses; counseling of Hispanic households and businesses in the establishment of credit, in housing management, and in business management akin to the programs of La Plaza in the Indianapolis metropolitan area; if necessary, establish Hispanic-oriented credit unions, SBA Certified Development Corporations and other institutions to finance the projects of Hispanic households and businesses. Establishment within the City of an Ombudsperson Office to advocate for the needs, objectives and projects of various citizens, community associations and businesses. That advocacy includes an active grants procurement operation involving intergovernmental aid, and aid to private organizations, households and businesses.[1] Further, the ombudsperson may assist in procuring local programs and other resources, and in recommending to the Mayor and Council measures to remediate the problems faced by ordinary citizens and organizations.[1] As a multicultural bridge to establish social, recreational and cultural events that combine the Anglo and Hispanic communities of Frankfort. These events recognize the positive impact of the annual summer downtown festival in Frankfort revolving on multicultural food, entertainment and merchandizing. Continued education and organization of Hispanic communities politically and socially in addressing these indigenous needs, toward the common good of the City, and with the aim of integrating Hispanic peoples in their multicultural neighborhoods and city. [1] grants/ subsidies/ low cost lending, credit enhancement, etc.through public agencies and corporate foundations; available through “Resources for Indiana Communities In Housing, Community & Economic Development,” a publication of the Indiana City Corporation [1]

14. 14 Findings by ICC Spanish-Speaking Staff Saddened by absence of integration, and quite self-deprecating – “Hispanic and Anglo people don’t share the use of public spaces. When Hispanics arrive, the Anglos leave.” – Fatalistic [“nothing will change to make our lives better”] – “afraid” Emphasis on social service needs [contrast to stakeholder interests] – Legal services – Health care – Family counseling/ abuse/ day care – Financial counseling – Public transportation – More and better jobs [‘like Lebanon”]

55. 55 Standards Planned Development – PUD – PRD – PCD – PID Performance Zoning

56. 56 Performance  Broad or Narrow range of uses  Intensities and some uses conditioned on “performance”  Performance = Impact on  neighboring properties  neighborhood  city as a whole  Evaluation of impacts [positive and negative] constitutes a “grade” [e.g., 75 of 100]  Very sophisticated While traditional zoning specifies allowable land uses in each district, performance zoning specifies standards of land use intensity that are acceptable in each district. Performance zoning focuses on the performance of the parcel and how it impacts adjacent lands and public facilities, not on the use of the land. This gives municipalities and developers more flexibility in designing projects, because the use of a property is not restricted as long as the impacts to the surrounding land are not negative (as defined in the specific regulation).

57. 57 Performance Standards Performance Zoning Model Ordinance Bucks County, Pennsylvania Natural Resource Protection Standards Open Space & Recreational Standards [NRPA] Architectural Design Standards Community Facilities and Associated Cost Responsibilities Fiscal Impact e.g., – Offsite infrastructure – School District Costs Other Public Amenities e.g., – Art – Mixed Use [commercial and residential] – Non-gated [public access] – TOD [transit]

59. 59 Applications for PUDs The PUD philosophy can be used for residential, commercial, and even industrial developments. Essentially a “planned unit” with mixed uses = – campus setting for industrial – antithesis of strip commercial and integration with other uses [office, residential lofts, etc.] – “planned communities” for residential

60. 60 Possible Requirements The city can require that developers: – Incorporate greenspace – Create and/or maintain roadways for the development – Plan for water runoff – Have a mixed income housing (for residential developments)

61. 61 Possible Benefits Higher standards for development, with emphasis on planned communities Greater opportunity for developers to create attractive and inviting developments. More opportunities for the city to allow for construction projects that might not have been possible under more traditional regulations.
