2018-03-05 Visioning Update 2018 VisioningUpdate Introduction The City of Albertville previously undertook a Visioning Study as part of their Comprehensive Planning Process. The City periodically reviews the Vision Study to be sure that it accurately reflect the goals of the City and City Council. The key issues and priorities are reexamined and reevaluated to see whether they have been effectively addressed or to identify on-going work that still requires attention. This update includes an examination of the long-range land use plan to determine if any changes are needed to reflect current market conditions, development inquiries or local land use needs. The current plan established in 1996 and amended in 2008, 2012, 2014 establishes land use patterns that recognizes that Albertville serves extraterritorial areas beyond its boundaries due to freeway interchanges within the city. In examining the Vision Study, Staff has identify the land use patterns of the adjoining communities to aid in the review of the Albertville Vision Plan. 2018 VisioningUpdate 3 Small Town AtmosphereIndustrial LandUses Nuisance issues Industrial traffic Pace of Growth Marketing of existing commerciallots Keeping up with aging infrastructure Streets & utilities Economic Development Marketing Residential LandUses Financialincentives Housing condition Publicimprovements Outdoorstorage Infilldevelopment No more multi-familydevelopment*PublicFacilities Trail & sidewalkconnectionsOld City Hall Soccer facility Icearena Commercial Land Uses Waste treatmentplant Development quality Ongoing maintenance of streets& Current land use patterns* utilities Access to commercialareas Cityparks Number of older vacant buildings Central Business District/MainSt. Small TownAtmosphere 4 Goal 1: Maintain and protect Albertville’s small town atmosphereand identity through long rangeplanning.

The extraterritorial areas expand Albertville’s market reach. • The development of these extraterritorial areas impact Albertville’s land use • planning. Albertville has business intercept advantages towards commercially serving the • extraterritorial area due to traffic patterns and commuter convenience. The following maps identify the extraterritorial areas in which commuters live, who • likely will use CR 19, I-94, or CR 37 to travel between work and home. This section outlines the extraterritorial areas of impact, and also provides a • forecast for new housing assets for Albertville based on the Proposed Land Use map from the 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
