RPA information Outline
According to the "Comprehensive Plan 2030" published in 2006 by the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency http://www.chcrpa.org/Projects/Land_Use_Plans/Comprehensive%20Plan%202030%20(2006)/Comprehensive_Plan_2030(2006)A-F.htm Apison lies in a Transitional Growth Development Sector of the the 6 county region they developed the plan for. Apison is marked in the section "Opportunity Areas" on page 153 and they recommended on page 159 that redevelopment could occur in this way: "This area has the potential for redevelopment as the traditional mixed-use neighborhood it once was in the late 1800s. The compact street grid is still in place with a small retail center that could be revitalized.  This historic framework could be used to create a new Apison Town Center following the recommendations for traditional Neighborhood Development in the development model section of the Development Plan." direct link .pdf http://www.chcrpa.org/Projects/Land_Use_Plans/Comprehensive%20Plan%202030%20(2006)/Comprehensive_Planl_no_Appendices.pdf

The development model section of the plan begins on page 170, and describes a feature common to all models, "Activity Centers." 173.247.29.132 (talk) 09:49, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
