Site Analysis:

• Determine the proximity of nearby resources, recreation, housing, etc.

• Compile and review available site and building information, surveys, etc. as provided by Seller.

• Survey: Obtain CAD files if available or solicit proposals from survey companies.

• Civil Engineering: Obtain CAD files of previous engineering designs (if available).

• Aerial Photography: Generate high-resolution images from GIS data and/or Google Earth.

• Environmental & Geotechnical Engineering: Obtain existing reports if available or solicit proposals. We may not initiate work until later but like you to have proposals early for budgeting.

• Scan and archive existing hard-copy survey and site information.

• Establish current zoning status and associated local restrictions and requirements.

• Delineate setbacks, easements, and special site features.

• Identify all applicable Authorities Having Jurisdiction.

• Visit the site to observe and record the characteristics of the site and surrounding area.

• Analyse vehicular circulation around and access to the site.

• Evaluate climate, solar exposure, prevailing winds, etc.

By the end of the meeting, you will have a list of priorities that will form the foundation of your master plan. Along with the visioning workshop we will also visit your current facility and complete a needs assessment. Like a feasibility study, a needs assessment examines:

• Code and accessibility compliance

• Mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems

• Utilities

• Use of space

After completing the visioning workshop and needs assessment, we will compile the data and create a list of priorities, starting with the most important.

DELIVERABLES:

• Colour Site Analysis Diagram.

• PDFs of all site information.

Masterplan Design:

• Develop multiple Masterplan concepts

• Delineate land uses, establish building size, massing, and parking requirements.

• Establish phases and design the site to respond to a logical phasing timeline.

• Present and review the master plan concepts with the Ownership team.

• Incorporate comments and complete the design.
