Show settlement should occur. Since the first population distribution was made into drainage statistical areas ( SA's), we will describe the assumptions here: Assumption I Assumption II Assumption III Assumptions SA 1- 7 Assumptions SA 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 Assumptions SA 12, 14, 15, 17 -- The rate of growth in more saturated areas-- although slower is steady. Therefore, concentration of new growth in already existing areas should be " in- filled" so as to occupy 80- 90 percent of the total land area. - Statistical areas that are centrally rather than peripherally located should receive more growth so as to respect preservation of agricultural land. -- Expansion of residential areas should take place around community centers, rather than distant from community- neighborhood services. -- Population projections for these areas were made independently in a report by Williams and Mocine. ( 9) -- These areas are primarily under the ownership of Kennecott Copper Corporation, and are expected to be maintained as industrial use, ( with the exception of SA 13, which is the Salt Marsh area of the Great Salt Lake). Consequently, no expectations for residential growth were assumed. -- Most of the land in these areas is either presently in or projected to be within the boundaries of Salt Lake City. The population allocations here are based on interviews with the Salt Lake City Planning Staff and are reasonable expectations of what increases will occur there by 1995. 43 |
