  • Trends and Challenges in Brownfield Revitalization: a Gis Based Approach
    XVII International Scientific Conference on Industrial Systems (IS'17) Novi Sad, Serbia, October 4. – 6. 2017. University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technical Sciences, Department for Industrial Engineering and Management Available online at http://www.iim.ftn.uns.ac.rs/is17 TRENDS AND CHALLENGES IN BROWNFIELD REVITALIZATION: A GIS BASED APPROACH Jelena Ignjatić (Urban and Spatial Planning Institute of Vojvodina, Železnička 6/III, Novi Sad, 21000 Serbia, [email protected]) Bojana Nikolić (University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technical Sciences, Trg Dositeja Obradovića 6, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected]) Aeksandar Rikalović (University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Technical Sciences, Trg Dositeja Obradovića 6, 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia, [email protected]) Abstract Brownfield sites have negative effects on the spatial, economic, environmental and social aspects of community life. During the past decades, examples of good practice around the world showed that the revitalization of brownfields contributed to material and non-material prosperity, and the realization of a sustainable economic and social development. Once large corporations, who represented the foundation of economic development of Vojvodina, Serbia, are now mainly devastated and powerless to independently find a solution for revitalization. Investors are faced with the problem of non-defined, disorganized and unregulated locations, but primarily with the lack of associated database, which would shorten the process of selecting the most suitable location. To activate brownfield sites, it is necessary to pinpoint these locations, and conduct a detailed analysis. When it comes to trends in revitalization of brownfields in the practice of other countries, the use of geographic information systems (GIS) has proven to be one of the most effective tools for visualization of attributes of the brownfields in terms of socio-economic factors, the environment, and the immediate surrounding of the location.

    www.itcon.org - Journal of Information Technology in Construction - ISSN 1874-4753 AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF AWARENESS AND PERCEIVED RELEVANCE OF GIS AMONG GENERAL CONTRACTORS IN THE USA SUBMITTED: November 2018 REVISED: June 2019 PUBLISHED: July 2019 at https://www.itcon.org/2019/18 EDITOR: Amor R. Anne Arendt, Associate Professor; Utah Valley University, Department of Technology Management [email protected] Armen Ilikchyan, Assistant Professor; Utah Valley University, Department of Technology Management [email protected] Robert Warcup, Associate Professor; Utah Valley University, Department of Construction Technologies [email protected] SUMMARY: This document analyzes the awareness and perceived relevance of geographic information systems and related technologies by construction industry general contractors via an exploratory survey of individuals in the field. A quantitative survey was developed based on an extensive literature review and meta-analysis. The survey was then administered at the Association of General Contractors (AGC) 2018 convention in New Orleans, LA. Eighty-eight construction industry related individuals participated. When asked if they were familiar with GIS, a tool for organizing data so it can be displayed and analyzed based on its geospatial characteristics, 32.95% (n=29) said they were not, 57.95% (n=51) said they were, and 9.09% (n=8) did not respond to the question. The researchers further assessed respondents who stated yes to familiarity with GIS or left it blank in depth. Within this group, the greatest perceived relevance was in property and site survey maps (4.37 average), digital mapping (4.22 average), engineering surveys (3.95 average), and topographic or planimetric mapping (3.95 average).

    I. What is a Site Plan Review? Site Plan Review is a process where the construction of new buildings, new additions, and certain types of canopies and/or tax-exempt institutions are reviewed by the City Planning staff and the City Council. The City reviews the new site in order to improve the functionality or mitigate any potential adverse impacts of the proposed development on neighboring properties. The end result of the process is for the applicant to obtain a special use permit. II. What Type of Development Requires Site Plan Review? There are five situations where a site plan review is required: All New Developments This does not include single or two-family dwellings. Substantial Additions Additions to buildings, or new accessory buildings, when a) the addition or new accessory building is greater than 25% of the existing principal building; b) the addition or new accessory building exceeds 1,000 square feet in gross floor area; c) curb cuts are required; or d) when such new construction reduces existing parking or significantly modifies existing on-site circulation (this does not include single or two-family dwellings). Canopies Canopies constructed over existing walkways, loading docks, or pump islands, where such new construction reduces existing parking or significantly modifies existing on-site circulation. Tax Exemption Person, association, corporation, religious institution, charity or foundation that has been designated by any governmental entity as exempt from payment of any tax levied by the city seeking to purchase or occupy real property in University City per the Municipal Code. Amendments Amendments to any of the above.

  • Site Plan Checklist
    HOW TO PREPARE YOUR SITE PLAN The #1 reason for delays in approving permit applications is incomplete Site Plans. Please refer to checklist inside. A site plan is needed to review your development proposal for zoning, addressing, sanitation, and building requirements. Producing a complete site plan will take a little time, but time spent now will speed up your application process later. YOUR SITE PLAN MUST BE ON AN 11” X 17” SHEET OF PAPER. ALL OTHER SIZES WILL BE REJECTED. (No blue print stock) • Please, use the blank form provided in this guide • I Five Tips Before You Start N 1 Talk to a Planner Prior to submitting a development application, meet with a planner to discuss potential land use issues and required setbacks. F • Planners are available from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm Monday thru Friday, or you can call 682-3577. O 2 Check Your Records To help you create your site plan, get a copy of the Assessor’s tax map that shows your property configuration, as well as other sources of information such as aerial photos, deed and title records, an appraiser’s report, or surveys. 3 Tools You Will Need G Before beginning, you will need an engineer’s scale, for measuring distances, scaling your site plan and to serve as a straightedge. An engineer’s scale can be purchased at an office supply store. Use a pencil or pen. U 4 Draw to a Scale Divisible by 10 I A uniform drawing scale is important to accurately display how various elements of your development proposal fit together.
