Miller Planning Associates <br />Proposal <br />Qualifications <br />Overview <br />City of San Leandro <br />Objective Development Standards <br />Our team brings a strong expertise in the areas of zoning and development regulations, urban design, and <br />architectural practice combined with extensive local and regional experience to enable us to achieve the <br />City's goals successfully, respond to community concerns, and prepare objective development standards <br />that are useful, easy to implement, and valuable over time. A summary of our project team's qualifications <br />relevant to the key elements of the project is provided below. <br />Zoning Codes <br />Miller Planning Associates offers expertise in preparing zoning codes in <br />a wide variety of settings, including urban centers, small towns, and <br />rural communities. Martha Miller has prepared numerous <br />comprehensive zoning codes and zoning studies throughout California, <br />including special purpose ordinances for topics such as multi -family and <br />mixed-use development, landscaping, hillsides, parking, planned <br />development, and community benefits. She utilizes the whole menu of <br />zoning approaches, including form -based, performance-based, and <br />Euclidean, to devise a strategy tailored to the unique needs of each <br />community. <br />Architecture and Urban Design <br />Urban Field Studio offers urban design services for cities of all scales <br />throughout California. Urban Field Studio approaches planning from <br />an architectural perspective, with each partner having dual degrees in <br />architecture and planning. They have prepared development and <br />design guidelines, written objective standards for multi -family and <br />mixed-use development, and strategized for economic development. <br />The policies Urban Field Studio write are informed by design advocacy <br />through design review. They bring an understanding of the <br />development process and make the connection between what is <br />desired, proposed, and written into policy. <br />Community Outreach <br />We believe successful plan making requires a collaborative relationship <br />among the general public, community representatives, the planning <br />team, and decision makers. As such, community engagement is at the <br />core of all our work. We rely on traditional and new media to engage a <br />broad spectrum of the community and build interest, participation, and <br />commitment. We use a multifaceted approach, tailored to the <br />community, to bring people into the process and give each person an <br />opportunity to share opinions and give feedback. <br />4 <br />City of Newark <br />NEW ZONING ORDINANCE <br />Adopted <br />Ll tA <br />
