The authors recognize that implementing every single one of these guidelines is near impossible. There will undoubtedly be trade-offs, and choosing what to prioritize must be done with the help of community members.

The following icons represent each of the 5 categories that the guidelines are grouped into: Resources + Services, Health + Safety, Community, Form Making, and Ecology. With the programmatic site plans in the coming pages, the order that the icons are listed are respective to their prioritization in that particular site plan sketch. The authors recommend using a similar rating-style system when developing site plan iterations.
