ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, LAND USE AND PROPERTY Economic Property Value Land Use Development Impacts Impacts Interchange Property Design Displacements Impacts Minimization

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, LAND USE AND PROPERTY Economic Development  All of the Interchange and IL 47 Build Alternatives Accommodate the Proposed Land Use Plan  The Land Use Plan is a tool utilized by Sugar Grove Economic Development Corporation (SGEDC) to further their goals  Full Access Interchange Connects NHS Routes (important to economy, defense, and mobility)

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, LAND USE AND PROPERTY Property Value Impacts  In Phase II, which includes land acquisition, fair market value for property is offered.  Independent appraisals are performed.  Damage to the remainder of $$$ property not acquired is taken into consideration during the appraisal process.

TRAFFIC Traffic Volumes Impacts of Traffic Truck Volumes on IL 47 on Local Roads Bicycle and Capacity and Pedestrian Operations Accommodations

TRAFFIC  The Population of Sugar Grove and Elburn is projected to triple from 2010 to 2040 Traffic Volumes  Sugar Grove – 10,000 to 30,000 on IL 47 Elburn – 6,000 to 18,000  Traffic Volumes Increase on IL 47 in the  Build and No Build Conditions and are generally the same within the study limits  All Build Alternatives have the same traffic projections
