DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
OPEN SPACE Sustainable Benefit Parks develop a sense of community Reduces pollutants Recreational facilities = increased property value. Residents feel safer. open spaces = more infiltration and filtration of runoff No urban heat effect

LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT LID remediates polluted runoff through a network of treatment landscapes, with distributed redundant, and resilient properties. Our solution is to develop a stormwater infrastructure that is planned to deliver valuable ecological benefits to botanize the Billy Mitchell Village. Rainwater collection Bioswales and rain gardens offer a natural process of water filtration. These techniques allow water to flow through vegetation and meander down the treatment train allowing pollutants to be extracted from the water and caught by the various obstacles before it seeps back into the ground. In lieu of traditional end of pipe techniques, a kit of parts that includes but not limited to: Rain-gardens/Bio-filtration Wet Vaults Permeable Friction Course Pavement Vegetative Swales Rainwater Harvesting

LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT Description LID is an ecologicallybased stormwater management approach favoring soft engineering to manage rainfall on site with integrated landscaping. LID maintains predevelopment hydrology by using techniques that infiltrate, filter, store and evaporate stormwater runoff close to its source. Sustainable Benefit increased pollutant removal enhanced recharge enhanced aesthetics safety from hydroplaning flood attenuation improved water quality habitat re-establishment reduced long-term maintenance extended base flow reduced potable water requirements for irrigation reuse existing road materials Cost/Benefit Cost Conventional development and LID are comparable in overall costs. Benefit Total benefit LID features are smaller footprint features that are more flexible in position with treatment resulting in water quality improvements greater than single purpose treatment pond. Environmental address water quality at source decrease velocity reduce upland habitat impacts reduce downstream erosion improve groundwater recharge improve aquatic habitat reduced runoff volumes less pollutant loadings downstream extended base flow Social improve site aesthetics enhance public awareness expanded recreational opportunities Economic reuse existing road materials reduced long-term maintenance increased property values reduce potable water requirements for irrigation
CONSTRUCTION METHODS AND MATERIALS Description We propose the project utilize the following methods and materials to reach sustainable goals: Recycle Existing Materials on the Project Salvage Existing Materials for Reuse Minimize Construction Debris Zero Waste to the Landfill LID Stormwater Infiltration Precast Concrete Incorporate roundabouts LED Signals and Streetlights Renewable Energy Low Maintenance Landscaping Sustainable Benefit Reduced consumption of natural resources, energy consumption, emissions and water use Less erosion Recycles waste and construction demolition Promotes on-site renewable energy Cost/Benefit Cost Lower shipping cost. Less landfill costs. Reuse of material reduces costs for new materials. Benefit LEED certification Improves productivity and health Less energy consumption therefore less energy production costs
UTILIZING EXISTING URBAN FRAMEWORK Saves Money and Time Flexible Phasing options
RE-DEFINED RIGHT OF WAY ELEMENTS Green Streets help decentralize storm water collection. Permeable pavement allows for capture of water at the source.
RETAIL DEVELOPMENT
MULTI-MODAL SYSTEMS Sustainable Benefit Economic Development Decreases Traffic Congestion Reduces Sprawl Sustainable Benefit Households that use public transportation save more than $10k / year. Households near public transit drive an average of 4,400 fewer miles, thus saving 223 gal/year per household.
NEW TRANSIT AND PARK & RIDE Description The Transit and Park & Ride facility provides for reuse of existing tracks located within Billy Mitchell Blvd. allowing for trolley car to connect the entire Port along with possible future connection to the Lone Star Rail station. Billy Mitchell Village Sustainable Benefit Reduced air pollution Less vehicles = less congestion Reduced parking needs Walkable communities Increases densities Adds economic vitality Benefit Increased Safety Improved mobility for economically disadvantaged Improved access to education and jobs Promotes cluster development Enhances community cohesion Reduces costs of public services Increased commerce and property values
