  9. Stake ho lde r Inte r vie ws 11 Interviews (TAC members) Focus on: • Strengths & Weaknesses • Opportunities • Tool Box Resources • Comparables & Metrics • Priorities for Action - 9 -

  10. Str e ngths & We akne sse s Strengths: Weaknesses: • Local & regional growth • Excessive 395 speeds • Good retail location • Poor internal streets • Central for ag-business • Lack of municipal water (fire flow) & distribution • Lack of sewer • Large, low cost sites • Zoning w/limited flexibility • Lower taxes • Unkempt image • Water & septic viability • Uncertain regulatory roles Comments: Comments: “Current building is not insurable” “Quick access” “Look of the town … haphazard” “North side is better… tried & true” - 10 -

  11. Oppo r tunitie s Comments: Economic Development : • Business expansion “Will get more • Added highway corridor retail / service (w/ infrastructure) of what we have” Infrastructure & Design: “Need • Street calming (speeds, signals, landscape, lights) cohesive help, • Water system improvements (short / long term ) but low cost” • Wastewater options (from engineered to public solutions) “Make the area more eye- • Internal street network (both sides of 395) appealing” • Business appearance (facades to front yards) “Name Promotional Activities: recognition is important” • Question of need (little need to value of corridor branding) “Move city • Added highway corridor retail (especially w/ critical mass) limits to Organizational Capacity: Bensel” • Yes, to do! (done before, agency roles, regional marketing) - 11 -

  12. T o o ls, Co mpar able s & Me tr ic s Tools: Comparables: Metrics (for success): • Public roles to • S Hermiston (industrial) address fire flows • Business • Umatilla Depot • ODOT 395 competitiveness (national / tri-state involvement & expansion markets) • Internal street • Attraction of new • Port of Morrow network similar business (heavy industrial, champions • Solving critical rail, barge) • Wastewater infrastructure • Downtown technical support questions Hermiston • Planning for (local retail) municipal & Tri-Cities treatment (malls) • Possible park / • Non-local open space? (success stories?) - 12 -

  13. Be st Pr ac tic e s Oregon: Across the U.S. State Resources: National Scope: • DLCD – RSTs, state significance • Federal – EDA, CDBG, TIGER, EPA • ODOT – TIB, TGM, refinement plan • Non-profit – NMSC, APA, ULI, LISC • Business Oregon – loans, land & • Form-based / performance zoning infrastructure, tax incentives Mid-West / East Coast: Local Jurisdiction Resources: • Rust-belt aggressive programs • LID / EID West Coast: • GO bonding • Industrial – PDX Airport Way, • Urban renewal – tax increment Seattle Duwamish, Long Beach • Regulatory incentive – SDC, zoning • Washington – CERB / LIFT • Public / private partnership • California – sales tax increment Few communities focused on West coast more limited industrial corridor revitalization experience w/ industrial corridors (more emphasis to date on commercial) (outside metro areas) - 13 -

  14. Be st Pr ac tic e s (Adde d De tail) Hood River Take-Aways: • Commercial: vision, customization, design, cooperation, leveraging Portland’s Airport Way • Industrial: quality look plus functionality, infrastructure, incentives Long Beach, CA • Oregon: adapt existing tools to corridor setting - 14 -
