f This study design describes a process for developing an action program.
The overall study covers a total of 18 months. Part I of this process,
covering the first ten months, will provide a review of major imminent
projects as well as produce a preliminary plan. During Part II, the |
last eight months of the study, a comprehensive planning program will
be developed for adoption along with a method for continuous planning
and programming for the future. ieee
The study design emphasizes planning and programming in accordance
with specific goals and objectives. Provision is made for frequent re-
view of the goals and objectives and proposed programs by public officials,
. the businessmen and citizens concerned with the central area. The pur-
4 | pose of this continuing policy review is two-fold, First, the plan and
‘ the program resulting from the process will reflect the desires and
aspirations of the people who will live, work and do business in the area.
Second, it will generate support for the program. if aeagig we
The program will be carried out by a special team to be created and
staffed by local government and business through the City of Atlanta and
Central Atlanta Progress, Inc. (CAP), with staff assistance from tech-
nical consultants. The community will be involved in special aspects
of the study program. In particular, it is intended that private industry
, and/or local colleges be involved in special studies of urban problems
— as they affect the Central Atlanta Area. The involvement of the business
communityis considered essential. CAP will be responsible for con-.
tinuing liaison, reporting and solicitation of suggestions from the
businessmen who will be most affected by downtown plans.

The work program places primary emphasis on the analysis and inter-
' pretation rather than the collection of data. Most of the information
which will be needed is already available from studies ccoipleted or in: io
progress) by the City of Atlanta, the State Highway Department of Georgia,
- the Atlanta Area Transportation Study, the Atlanta Regional Metropolitan
Planning Commission, and the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority.
This coordination is essential for the successful implementation of both
studies. The timing is designed to exploit the general findings of the cur-
rent area transportation study. The Central Atlanta Study and the area
transportation study are mutually complementary.
Figure 1 indicates the work program by tasks and time sequences. It
is intended that this model be used as a guide for management for the
study program. Itis recognized that all studies are subject to modifica-
tion and adaptation to the exigencies of unforeseen circumstances. How-
"ever, it isebelieved that the schedule as indicated in Figure 1 is reasonable
and can be accomplished with satisfactory results in the time periods indi-
cated. Inherent in this study design is a flexibility which ‘will permit the
constant evaluation of proposed projects that are relevant to the Central
Area while the study is in progress, to give views on the impact of these
projects on the interim plans and objectives for Central Atlanta.
STUDY AREA | Ghee Bue te ee: ose
The proposed study area is shown in Figure 2. The poundasy which is
defined by the circumferential railroad lines will permit analysis of various
transportation.alternatives and reflect the impact of major redevelopment
projects on the downtown core. The core area itself will be the subject of ©
the most intensive analysis wherein data collection, analysis and forecusts
will be related to’ small zones, usually blocks.
