First Phase: Background Analysis <br />Deliverables <br />Time Frame <br />As part of the PDA profile, R+A will conduct a high-level review of the General Plan direction (including a <br />coordination meeting with City staff and the General Plan Update consultant), zoning, and other city plans or <br />polices affecting the area, as well as relevant existing plans or policies from other sources such as BART, <br />Alameda County. This will include an assessment of current City, County, and BART policies and other <br />governmental and physical factors that will influence the feasibility of transit -oriented development, the status <br />of proposed or planned Bay Fair area capital improvement projects. The purpose of this review will be to <br />identify policy parameters and guidance for the area. R+A will work with VMWP to review existing public - <br />sector and private -sector plans for the area to understand which components have been implemented and <br />which have not, and to better understand the success or lack of success of past efforts in the area. <br />R+A will provide context for the relationship between the planning area and the surrounding area, including <br />identifying opportunities for positive benefit to the surrounding unincorporated neighborhoods, Alameda County <br />East 14th Street PDA project area, and County property within the planning area. <br />Along with the evaluation and research of physical context, demographic, active policies, and site context, the <br />PDA Profile Report will identify issues, constraints, or concerns that will need to be addressed during the <br />planning process. R+A will work with VMWP to identify key opportunity sites for future transit -oriented <br />development and relevant data associates with identified properties. <br />The draft PDA Profile Report will be presented to the TAC and CAC for review and comments. <br />Task 1.4: Transportation Memo.
