The Cuyahoga County Planning Commission completed the initial study in August of 2000 for NOACA. The original study consisted of three elements: an inventory of retail establishments in the area, an analysis of national retail trends reflected in the area, and finally a discussion of the linkages between retail development, land use, transportation, tax base, and environment. The original study had several significant findings, worth continued examination. First, NORRA found the region saturated in the retail categories of convenience and shopping goods by more than six million square feet. There was also a spatial mismatch discovered between the location of new development and the areas of the region which were underserved. The study also found that while retail generated more than $345 million dollars annually in property, income and sales tax revenue, the continual movement outward was taxing community resources with demands for new infrastructure and transportation improvements.
