1. Community Youth Center URP 4273 Survey of Planning Information Systems Final Group Project: Team Two Spring 2003

2. Team Objectives Provide Youth Center To: Create a place where children of all ages can come and meet Have access to various types of information –Internet –Books, music and magazines –Various sports equipment and fields/courts –Get after school help with homework

3. Major Criteria for Youth Center Transportation/Accessibility Close to major roads Close to existing bus stops Construction Considerations Close to major roads for easy access for construction vehicles/workers All utilities within a reasonable proximity to the site

4. Major Criteria for Youth Center Existing Infrastructure Walking distance to and access of local schools Close to various local housing neighborhoods/apartment complexes Demographics Target age ranges: Adolescents

5. Major Criteria for Youth Center Impediments to Construction Not within flood zones Land is undeveloped and available Zoned Commercial for immediate construction Enough land to build Youth Center on and have needed parking located on site

6. Note For All Data Source: FGDL data for Alachua County Extent: Majority of data used are for the East Gainesville area All shapefiles provided were used in some part of the analysis. Metadata proved beneficial when Geoprocessing did not

7. Unsuitable Data Outlining the processes to find the data that would cause any impediments to construction

8. Florida Natural Areas Boundaries

9. FNAI Zones (A,B,C) Buffer FNAI given a 100m buffer giving us Final_con

10. Natural Streams Buffer

11. Stream_shp given a 400m buffer giving us Stream_buf400

12. Historic Structures Buffer Historic_shp given a 75m buffer giving us Historic_buf75

13. Future Land Use Buffer FNAI given a 100m buffer giving us Final_con Selection Parameters Commercial, Residential, and Recreational

14. Final Union of Buffers

15. Created field ‘buffer_ran’ Calced to a unique number to differentiate from polygons in the ‘Good Layer’ when “Unioned” Setup for Future ‘Clip’

16. Workflow to get to Final Union of Buffers

17. Suitable Lands Only thing left after we have found the numerous impediments is to find suitable areas Agreed to use areas above the flood zone as our ‘input’ layer under our ‘final_union’

18. FEMA/Special Flood Area Above Fl_zone and municipalities were union to create Suitable_flzone

19. FEMA Suitable Polygon Selection

20. Exclusion Areas Final Union of Buffers Land Above Flood Areas

21. Data Analysis Analyze city data to decide which parcel will be suitable –Census, tiger line files, metadata, utilities, zoning, etc.

22. Suitable Lands and Parcels PUSE Code (0000, 1000) 4 – 8 acres in size

23. Vacant Parcel Information Our Proposed Site is represented in yellow

24. Location of Vacant Parcel Using Internet GIS Software Our Proposed Site is represented in yellow

25. Site Analysis- Water Lines & Major Streets Our Proposed Site is represented in yellow

26. Site Analysis Schools, Bus Stops & Unsuitable Land Our Proposed Site is represented in yellow
