Mater Plan - Sub-Basin Evaluation  Watershed Concept  Process  Sub-basin Evaluation Return to Master Plan   OPPORTUNITY MAPS      While this management zone approach is an effective tool for evaluating the capacity of the land to support different land uses, this approach alone doesn't maximize siting opportunities. The opportunity maps seek to define the best locations for the range of potential program elements (recreation areas, habitat enhancement, economic opportunities, etc.).               PUBLIC SURVEY USED TO DEFINE PRIORITIES     Public Survey Results  Planning Objectives   Efficient Growth Factors The quantification of survey results can be used as weighting factors to create a physical expression of community (weighting for the series of Opportunity Maps).   A single opportunity map is created for each program element that is desired. For the Riverway we have used the following:   These Opportunities are Parcel Specific - thus translate to site scale design.   These Opportunities are Parcel Specific - thus translate to site scale design.   We now know parcel specific opportunities that can be incorporated as design criteria at the site scale and understand the implications to those same parcels for both watershed wide and basin specific management objectives and appropriate uses. The range of design alternatives constructed within this planning process are base upon coincidence between management zones and opportunity maps. In this way the client/public can select between a range of futures, all of which meet the management objectives of both the watershed-wide framework and the sub-basin objectives. The opportunity maps that further define where the potential for the program elemetns are most appropriate based upon; public identification of important resources, desired uses, and priority issues.     Site Specific Design Criteria for the 5 Demonstration Areas along the Chattahoochee Riverway:     Watershed Concept  Process  Sub-basin Evaluation Return to MasterPlan 1997 Landscape Architecture Foundation Demonstration Project  Sponsored by Urban Resources Partnership  Last updated on 13 February 1998
