Participants will receive the framework they need to take a leadership position in implementation of a facilities planning activity.

 

 

1. Your will learn about the three levels of a facilities planning process: Master Plan, Area Development Plan and Site Plan.

2. This seminar will focus on a process to use in developing an Area Development Plan for residential, commercial, industrial and public agency developments.

3. You will see graphic examples of how to represent a land area so it can be evaluated and decisions made about a strategy for its development.

 

 

Facilities planning is an essential step in development of land for commercial, industrial, residential and public agency uses. This course will tell you how to prepare one of the key elements in the facilities planning process: Area Development Plans (ADP). You will learn the three phases to go through in preparing an ADP, and the data collection, analysis, evaluation and decision tasks that are necessary. This course will give you a framework you can apply to a broad range of developments in order create a functional, efficient and environmentally sensitive project for your company, client or agency.
