"Scott Day was
really helpful because [he] commented on the [store's]
name and about how it should convey a more fun, colorful,
kid sound. He also talked about what we could do to change
our windows and that we shouldn't have all of our bestsellers
right as you walk in. As a result, sales have gone up in
the last few months, especially for toys and books."

Streetscape Plan Review
The goal of this visit is to
develop or review a preliminary concept plan for public improvements. Usually
a three-day tech visit to give recommendations and establish priorities
in the areas of:
- Parking
lot improvements;
- Streetscape
amenities such as lighting, seating, pavement, trash receptacles,
pavement, communications, etc.;
- Public
gathering and performance areas;
- Proper
location for trees;
- Developing
funding for public improvements;
- Streetscape
maintenance;
- Traffic analysis
and traffic calming techniques that might be employed;
- Selecting
the right type of designer for your streetscape, and exploring
the difference between an architect, landscape architect, engineer,
civil engineer, landscape contractor, and what the proper role
for each professional might be in relation to the community’s needs; and
- Managing
and promoting downtown during a public improvements project.
