PUBLIC FACILITIES, LAND USE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
The City Council approved preparation of a Public Facilities, Land
Use Management work program on October 21, 1975. On July 6, 1976,
the Council authorized participation in a 701 Planning Assistance
Grant for FY 76-77. The projects goal was the development of tools
and techniques needed to implement a Public Facilities Land Use
Management Program.
The Public Works Department requests authorization to apply for an
additional grant for FY 77-78. This grant will include application
of tools and techniques developed under the existing grant (FY76-77) ,
and development and implementation of a Public Facilities, Land Use
Management Program. An important part of this project is useability
and acceptance by the City Council. The importance of clarifying
this issue was demonstrated at the Council workshop on the Public
Facilities Program held on Janaury 11, 1977,

The Public Works Department will request City Council authorization
to apply for a Public Facilities, Land Use Management Grant for
FY 77-78. The City Council has recognized the need for a compre-
hensive program to evaluate and plan for future development and its
environmental and fiscal impacts. This grant will help the City
develop and implement such a program.
The proposed project both reflects and meets the goals and objectives
set by the office of Planning and Research. The primary purpose of
this project is to develop and implement a Public Facilities and
Land Use management plan which will determine the direction of future
growth and how this growth will be served by major services. The
goals and objectives of this project are:
1) Assisting the City Council through public hearings in development
of standards and criteria which will be used to evaluate and
initiate Public Facilities and Land Use Management policies.
2) Provide land use, population and public facility data to imple-
ment development of a capital improvement program.
3) Develop techniques and implement a program to assist the City
Council and the general public in evaluating individual projects.
4) Develop techniques for systematic update and correction of base
data. This will include updating and implementation of dime file
data, the maintenance of which is nationally and state supported.
5) Analyze the impact of Public Facilities on directing, guiding,
or controlling future development.
6) Analyze the impact of future development on Public Facilities.
7) Implement the tools and techniques developed under the Phase I
grant (FY 76-77) into the planning and decision process.
8) Implement a Public Facilities, Growth Management Program.
9) Assess uses for revision of the General Plan, and
10) Development of growth management strategies aimed at conservation
of natural resources.
