1 3D - Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan Lesli Ellis Comprehensive Planning Manager City of Boulder

2 Presentation Boulder s use of 3D GIS and other tools in Comprehensive Planning (e.g., story maps, CityEngine, analysis) Lessons Learned and Next Steps

3 City of Boulder, CO DENVER METRO COLORADO

4 Glenn Asakawa/University of Colorado

5 Foothills Downtown CU Regional Commercial NIST

6 About Boulder (2016) 25.8 sq mi urban area 71 sq. mi. city open space! ~107k city residents ~100k jobs 6

7 About Boulder Major employers: University, federal labs, health care, technology, Ball Aerospace 55% of people in jobs commute into Boulder Half renters/owners $1M+ average detached home price (2016) $850 median Little vacant land 7

8 It takes a village to plan Many actions citizen-initiated First city in 1967 to approve tax to pay for open space

9 Every 5 years!

10 Vision and Core Values Stewardship, Climate Action Cooperation Compact, contiguous, infill All modes Transportation Welcome, Inclusive, vital Great Neighborhoods

11 Key Planning Issues Compact growth: floodplains, height limits (cottonwood), urban service limit Housing diversity and affordability Balancing job growth and community character Climate action and resilience Highly engaged community (hands on)

40 CITYWIDE SCENARIOS D. Nonresidential Growth Management Designed to: Test land uses and tradeoffs about housing and non-residential uses A. Current Policy B. Current Policy + Focus on Centers and Corridors C. Current Policy + Focus on Light Industrial Areas

41 SCENARIO A: CURRENT POLICY Baseline Scenario If we change no policies or land use 51,450 dwelling units 101,430 jobs Housing + 6,750 new residential units = 58,200 Jobs + 56,000 jobs = 156,000

44 PROJECTION MODELING CITYENGINE

45 MODELING AT SITE LEVEL

46 FOR EACH SCENARIO AND AREA Generalized depiction in CityEngine for citywide context and analysis Annotated diagram(s) to convey characteristics by area: Housing prototypes Housing units by type Square feet of non-residential Unique considerations (e.g. transitions, neighborhood protections) Street-level sketch(es)

47 Street level visualizations and some aerial views to depict concepts 53

48 HOUSING PROTOTYPES

50 INDICATORS/ANALYSIS 1. Different modeling tools (i.e., transportation) 2. Values based community goals 3. Not too black box 4. Implementation critical

51 MOVING FORWARD 1. Land use and zoning changes in industrial areas and Regional Center to allow more housing 2. Area plans for neighborhood centers 3. Residential infill pilots

52 LEARNINGS SO FAR 1. Expanding Storymaps Training staff. Integrating other projects and other departments (e.g., CIP, parks) 2. Assessing CityEngine - Model for planning decisions. Ideal for area plan or site level 3. Still Using Variety of 3D (and 2D) Tools - Infill focus, analytical and design important

53 WHAT S NEXT? 1. Storymaps Expanded 2. Interactive Comp Plan Maps 3. 3D Area Planning (crowdsource apps) 4. Development Review functions
