Item Complete Streets from Policy to Project: The Planning and Implementation of Complete Streets at Multiple Scales(Minnesota Department of Transportation, 2013-12) Schively Slotterback, Carissa; Zerger, CindyComplete streets is emerging as an influential movement in transportation planning, design, and engineering. This guidebook, with accompanying case studies, explores the variety of ways in which complete streets is conceptualized and institutionalized by various jurisdictions. It offers practical and applicable insights for jurisdictions in Minnesota and elsewhere. The research focused on best practices in 11 locations across the nation: Albert Lea, Minnesota; Arlington County, Virginia; Boulder, Colorado; Charlotte, North Carolina; Columbus, Ohio; Dubuque, Iowa; Fargo-Moorhead, North Dakota/Minnesota; Hennepin County, Minnesota; Madison, Wisconsin; New Haven, Connecticut; and Rochester, Minnesota. The guidebook is informed by an analysis of multiple data sources from each jurisdiction. The authors conducted a review of key documents (e.g., plans, policies, design guidelines), site visits, photo documentation, and in-depth interviews with more than 100 key informants. Six best practice areas emerged through the analysis: (1) framing and positioning, (2) institutionalizing complete streets, (3) analysis and evaluation, (4) project delivery and construction, (5) promotion and education, and (6) funding. The six best practice areas are described in detail and illustrated by examples from the case locations. The guidebook concludes with an appendix of complete streets case reports that offer additional details about each of the 11 case jurisdictions.Item Economic Emergency Program: Dairy Processing Plant Closures in Rochester(2020) Tuck, Brigid; Hawkins, JenniferItem Full Report to the Rochester/Olmsted Community Housing Partnership, Inc. on Housing Needs and Markets.(1990) Lukermann, Barbara L; Goetz, Edward G; Beech, Patricia; Capistrant, Steven; Rogers, Denise; Sporlein, BarbaraItem Guidebook 1. A Geological Field Trip in the Rochester, Minnesota Area(Minnesota Geological Survey, 1968) Austin, George S.The Minnesota Geological Survey invites non-geologists to examine the rocks and fossils in the Rochester area on this field trip. We welcome all persons regardless of their backgrounds in geology and hope that this guidebook will help make what is seen here more understandable. If any word or explanation is not clear to you, please ask any of the geologists on the trip to explain it to you.Item Housing Needs and Markets in Rochester and Olmsted County. Summary of a Report to the Rochester/Olmsted Community Housing Partnership, Inc.(Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota., 1990) Lukermann, Barbara L; Goetz, Edward G; Beech, Patricia; Capistrant, Steven; Rogers, Denise; Sporlein, BarbaraItem Local Option Sales Tax Analysis for Rochester, MN(2022) Pesch, RyanItem OFR14-05, A HYDROCHEMICAL SURVEY OF GROUNDWATER FLOW IN THE ROCHESTER METROPOLITAN AREA, MINNESOTA(Minnesota Geological Survey, 2014) Tipping, Robert G.Historical chemical and isotopic data from Olmsted County, Minnesota were used to distinguish groundwater types based on similar chemical and isotopic composition. The extent of recent waters, identified by detectible tritium, chloride, nitrate or sulfate concentrations above background levels, along with groundwaters having elevated calcium to magnesium molar ratios were mapped in three dimensions. The distribution of these waters can be explained, in part, by the permeability of unconsolidated sediments overlying bedrock, bedrock hydrostratigraphy, and vertical hydraulic gradients within the Rochester Central Metropolitan Area (RCMA) dueto high capacity pumping. The spatial distribution of groundwater chemical types is also a function of changes in vertical hydraulic gradients with time. Within the last 20 years, the extent of recent waters within the RCMA has expanded both horizontally and vertically. Groundwater calcium to magnesium ratios in the Prairie du Chien Group (Shakopee aquifer) and the Jordan Sandstone (Jordan aquifer) within the RCMA have also increased and show greater variability through time, indicating a greater percentage of recharge to these aquifers moving vertically within the RCMA and from the Decorah edge than before high-capacity pumping began.Item Real Property Value in the Heart of the Upper Midwest.(Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota, 1994) Borchert, John R.; Casey, WilliamItem RISE: Rochester in Support of Everyone(2000) Baylor, LeanneItem Rochester in Support of Everyone Focus Group Summaries and List of Resources.(2001) Moody, SarahItem Site Study of Soil Characteristics and Soil Gas Radon in Rochester, Minnesota.(Center for Urban and Regional Affairs, University of Minnesota, 1991) Lively, Richard; Steck, Daniel; Brasaemle, Bruce
