Woodstock Town Center LCI Master Plan Update - Woodstock, GA

Pond worked with the City of Woodstock to create land use, transportation, economic development and retail strategies for the 10-year update to the City’s Town Center Plan. The process included extensive community involvement and coordination with stakeholders and design consultants, including a four-day design charrette that yielded valuable input to the study team. The process culminated in a five-year implementation action plan for providing residential, commercial redevelopment and mobility projects for the historic downtown. Parking was identified as a particularly important issue, so the Pond team also included a parking study which examined issues and parking occupancy throughout the study area.  In response, Pond developed numerous strategies to address parking in a cost-effective manner. To make sure the final plan is realistic and implementable, Pond went beyond the Atlanta Regional Commission’s (ARC’s) requirements and included a detailed market study to determine the type and amount of future development that could be supported in the Woodstock Town Center.
