Definitions • Freight related land use – zoning or future land use designation for heavy industrial or light industrial classifications. • Industrial Parks – existing industrial park development and greenfield sites identified as future industrial parks. • Freight Generators – commercial locations generating freight tonnage shipments within the region. • Existing Freight Corridor – roadway corridor where current planning regulation (zoning) and existing freight related land use and generators exist. • Future Freight Corridor – roadway corridor where future land use planning regulation (FULU map) for freight related land use and existing generators exist.
Definitions Cont. • Employment Growth – the difference in employment growth from 2015 to 2045 in the Wholesale/Distribution, Manufacturing, and Mining sectors by NAICS code. • Development Clusters – where job growth is forecast within planned growth areas. • Employment Growth Gap – where job growth is forecast outside of planned growth areas.
• Planning Gap – locations of existing freight land use where planning regulation does not appear to support growth.
Study Area Locational analysis • Intermodal Facilities • Industrial Parks

Existing and Future Freight Buffers Validates that Current and LongRange Planning coordination takes place within the freight network determination
Existing/Future Freight Corridors & Generators
Validates that freight network determination meets land use planning efforts and major freight generator locations
Existing and Future Freight Corridors Unique Identifiers for Needs Assessment: • Network performance analysis • Land use conflict analysis, and • Project identification
Forecast Future Freight Employment Use TAZ level employment data to forecast future job growth to 2045 • Manufacturing • Wholesale Distribution & Warehousing • Mining

Land Use Findings
35
Land Use Key Findings Local, regional and state transportation and land use planning decisions are interdependent • Regional and local coordination with SCDOT at the Planning, District and Regional Production Group levels; • Land development regulations and permit approvals should consider incorporating traffic impact studies where necessary; and
• Continue to plan for future freight related development along existing freight clusters and corridors.
Land Use Key Findings Coordination between local governments, BCDCOG, Charleston Regional Development Alliance, and Department of Commerce • Local goals and objectives for impacts of growth should be compared to the state and regional economic development strategy • Future freight related growth, such as Wal-Mart Distribution Center, should account for regional impacts to the transportation network • Zoning and Future Land Use determinations should consider freight growth and its impacts to the transportation network.
Land Use Opportunities • Sub-Area & Neighborhood Freight Plan Program • Develop strategies and design standards to reduce conflicts between freight, auto, transit, and bike/ped for small towns and neighborhoods
• At-Grade Rail Crossing Program • Prioritize and program at-grade crossing project improvements
• Regional Truck Parking Plan • Identify and prioritize sites for future truck parking facilities
Land Use Opportunities • Regional Freight Development Study • Determine freight related planned acreage and future industry cluster recruitment and marketing strategies
• Regional Supply Chain Resiliency Strategy • Develop a strategy to create immunity to local and global impacts to the network supply chain
