COVER LETTER Dear Mayor and Council, Blancoi is at ther most critical juncture ini its history. The wave of urban growth thati is passing through southern neighbors Bulverde and Spring Branch, is at Blanco's doorsteps. Alls satellite citiesl like Blanco -which are within an hour's drive ofa ar major metropolitan area - eventually experience such a wave. Cities that are prepared, shape the wave accordingt tot the natural grain of their community; and they sustain and become stronger. Cities that are not prepared loose much oft theiri identity and frequently spend several decades mitigating thei impact of the wave. As thel leaders oft the City of Blanco youl have chosen to prepare for your wave and with this RFP youl have decided After more than ay year of following the City's progress, Atlas Design services is excited tos submit this proposal and potentially be a part of the City's preparation for growth. Atlas shares int the City's optimism fori its majorl lifeline- - SHZ 281 -and believes the team putt together represents a strong cross section of capabilities that will meeti the needs oft the City and this project. Thet teami includes Brandon Melland, AICP with Patchwork City as Lead Urban Planning Consultant, Jonathan Thompson as thep physical infrastructure Subject Matter Expert (SME), and Tommy Atlas understands that the impetus of the RFP is to maintain and enhance the cultural and historical character of Blanco, plani for the expansion of State Highway 281 duet toi increased transportation demand, andi meet the growth demands int the area. Increased traffic and development that comes along with growth presents several concerns for city leaders and residents. First and foremost, thei intent of the RFP is to ensure future development builds upont the City's existing historical assets, as wella as previously adopted City plans and codes. This willi take an effort to explore the three workstreams of urban planning: 1) the! built environment, 2) market demand, and 3) thes social environment. Just asi important, ist the highways transit through the central business district oft the city. Here the city would like to explore other options that support the development of city center and other business Atlas proposes that the three-workstream project be delivered across six phases that span the course oft the calendar year 2022 andi include ar robust community stakeholder inputp process. Along with community! input, existing plans and codes willi inform the community" vision. The community's vision willt then shape thet final deliverable ofa a new Urban Plan for Blanco's Overlay Corridor District. Thel District's Plan will consider smart growth principals, urban design standards and peer city strategies, and healthy land use that reflects Blanco's charm while reducing incompatible land use and property devaluation development. Itis with tremendous enthusiasm that our team wants to partner with Blanco to develop a sustainable 281 growth corridor that is alignment with the community vision. Thank you for consideration and we look forward to working withy you! that a major stepi int this preparationi is establishing: a vision fort the 281 corridor. McClung as the Project Manager and! Stakeholder Engagement lead., that lie alongt the current thoroughfare. Sincerely, MCK Tommy McClung Vice President/Owner Atlas 2. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The City of Blanco is seeking to commence at two-fold planning process for the 281 Corridor: 1) Establish a vision: and 2) establish an actionable plan toi implement the vision. The vision will need to ensure that future development along 281 is not only fiscally responsible, buta also maintains and enhances the character of the City. This planning process will need to include consideration of accepted urban development standards and peer city strategies that reflect the charm and historical context of Blanco, while also carefully studying market conditions andi the environmental and infrastructural constraints that are unique to Blanco. Central to the constraints of the project willl bei the 281 corridor's transit through the! heart of the city. Such a condition is both ane extraordinary challenge and tremendous opportunity - andi if designed properly -will establish 281 ast the vibrant spine of the City. With a vision being considered for ar re-energized city center, an unmitigated highway transiting the through community ist not an option. The 281 Corridor effort is being asked to consider options for thet future of how this part of the corridor will be handled with State expansion. With an existing Master Plan anda Historic District: set of Development Guidelines, the 281 project willl be called upon to respect these inputs along with the community desires to develop land use and acceptable development codet to support downtown Thep project will alsol look att the city's ETJ where thel Northern and Southern development. inputs from the 281 Corridor will come into play. Here land use, zoning, the look and feel oft thes structures, and availability ofi infrastructure will be critical to meeting the city's vision. Ani important point tot this part of the community willl bet tol look atl land use, thet fiscali impact ofv varying land use and development options, andi the projected infrastructure requirements to meet growth demand. Atlas will consider work already completed such as the Blanco Wastewater: Service Area Study and thel landu uses, and projections applied for the 2020 publication. Thesei inputs become part of the existing and visioning efforts of the 281-projecti informing the recommendations to code and capital planning. 3.
