Introduction
Cache Valley has a housing shortage. There is prime real estate in Providence to subdivide. The State of Utah is the first fastest growing State in the United States of America (U.S. Census Bureau, 2020)
Alternatives
Multiple designs and alternative concepts were created and reviewed. They ranged from different lot sizes, number of lots, or storm water control. In Figure 2 shows one of the alternatives. It was determined that the size of lots was the most profitable alternative. It is shown in Figure 4.
Design Criteria
Figure 3 shows the profitability analysis of the multiple alternative concepts. This one is simplified for readability. When comparing the profitability for the various concepts the general infrastructure was calculated to make the subdivision comfortable and possible. Some of the considerations were the amount of asphalt we would need for the roads, the amount of manholes, all the utility lines, the amount of earthwork needed, and the amount each lot would sell for. Profitability was found by subtracting the expense of general infrastructure from the income of the lots.
Final Design
Figure 5 shows the Civil 3D design of the northwest corner of the subdivision. This is phase 1. The design includes the roads, retention pond, and the grading up to each lot from the road.
