Under the high growth scenario, total population would range from 65,000 to 70,000 for the three corridors. The study area would grow by 118% to almost 240,000 people. Population density for the three corridors would range from 40 people per acre to 83 people per acre. This population density corresponds to 14 to 30 DU/AC. Residential typologies in these corridors could contain townhomes, garden apartments, and stacked apartments (refer to Figure 38).

Total population for the three corridors under the medium growth scenario could range from 48,000 to 52,000. The study area would add approximately 50% more people. Population densities for the three corridors would range from 29 to 60 people per acre. These densities correspond to housing densities of 10 to 22 DU/AC. Residential typologies in these corridors could contain townhomes, and garden apartments (refer to Figure 38). The City selected this growth scenario as the basis for the analysis.

The low-growth scenario would have total population within the three corridors ranging from 35,000 to 38,000. Total population would grow approximately 20% to 130,000 people. Population density in the three corridors would range from 23 to 46 people per acre, or 8 to 16 DU/AC. Residential typologies could include small lot single-family units and townhomes (refer to Figure 38).
Key Takeaways Total population within the three corridors makes up a large majority of the study area. Based on the range of population density, all three corridors could support small-lot single family, townhomes, and garden apartments. Only Dottie Lynn has densities high enough to support stacked apartments. Bridge Brentwood Stair and Handley have similar population characteristics. It should be noted residential typologies are based on a corridor average. It is possible denser developments could be supported. Future land use recommendations should consider allowing small-lot single-family developments, or accessory dwelling units, within existing single-family neighborhoods. The plan moved forward with the Medium Growth Scenario.
