Assignment 4: Identifying Business/Economic/Community Development Opportunities Introduction In

this assignment, the student is supposed to find a piece of vacant parcel (or multiple contiguous

vacant parcels) or a vacant building/building complex in a local community and identity the

potential development/redevelopment scenarios. Study Area You can use the parcel GIS data, local

MLS listing for land sale, Google, or personal knowledge to identify a piece of vacant parcel (or

multiple contiguous vacant parcels) for a local community to complete your assignment. The parcel

(s) should NOT be within a large residential development subdivision. Instead, isolated parcels, or

parcels with differential zoning requirements from the surroundings, will be a better option for

this assignment. Alternatively, you can identify any vacant building/building complex that you

think redevelopment is imperative. Then proceed to Tasks to gather some basic information about the

study area and its context. Tasks 1. Use Business Analyst Online https://bao.arcgis.com/esriBAO/ to

gather some demographic and economic information within the 15-minute drive time of your study

area. 2. Use Business Analyst Online to conduct research on various market potentials within the

15- minute drive time of your study area. 3. Use Business Analyst Online to identify leakage and

surplus of industries/businesses within the 15-minute drive time of your study area. 4. Use

Business Analyst Online to identify consumption patterns within the 15-minute drive time of your

study area. 5. Then comprehensively determine the best business/economic/community development use

of the parcel(s), or the best adaptive reuse of the vacant building/building complex. If there are

multiple parcels with different owners, pay attention to land assembly issues. State whether you

will demolish or preserve the building/building complex. 2 Submission Your assignment should follow

the similar structure and formatting requirements as in Assignment #1 and #2, including a cover

page, Table of Contents, List of Tables, List of Figures, Executive Summary, main body of the

report, references, etc. Include at least the following in your report: 1) Demographic

characteristics, economic conditions, market potential, industrial leakage and surplus, consumption

patterns, and other criteria to identify the development/redevelopment potentials. Present only the

information relevant to your scenario(s). Carefully coordinate the selection of charts, tables, and

texts in presenting your materials. 2) Lay out the development/redevelopment scenario(s). If you

have multiple scenarios select the best one based on a quick back-of-the-envelope comparison. The

detailed feasibility study of the best scenario will be in Assignment 5. Briefly describe your best

scenario in terms of the use/reuse of the site and building(s), and site and building design.
