Village shows 3‑D modeling tool for testing Spring Hill scenarios; staff stresses it is not regulatory
Summary
Village staff demonstrated a 3‑D modeling and analysis tool to visualize mixed‑use scenarios for the Spring Hill site, repeatedly stressing that the tool produces scenarios and is not prescriptive zoning or a set of blueprints.
Tim Scott described a 3‑D modeling tool used by the village and its consultants to visualize potential redevelopment scenarios for the Spring Hill site. The tool produces datasets and images that allow staff and the public to vary variables and test configurations; Scott said the visuals "are not blueprints" and are meant to demonstrate possibilities rather than produce a single prescriptive plan.
He emphasized boundaries for the exercise: "None of what you've seen tonight is regulatory. There's no zoning involved in what we're contemplating right now." Scott said the model will be used to inform conversations with potential private developers and to evaluate infrastructure needs on a project‑by‑project basis.
