Division of Design & Construction Master Plan for Redevelopment Process Definition Plan Jefferson City Correctional Center PARSONS HBA in association with I -1 Development Strategies . Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Introduction In July of 1999, the State of Missouri, through the Division of Design & Construction, developed a task list to address the upcoming decommissioning of the Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC). At the top of the list was the notation “Organize Task Force”. Shortly thereafter, a Task Force of local civic and business leaders was formed and the planning process for the redevelopment of JCCC gained momentum. By the end of 1999, the newly formed Task Force had started the preparation of an evaluation of its concepts, values and priorities. After successfully conducting a state-wide design charrette for the JCCC in April 2000, the State of Missouri, Division of Design & Construction and Task Force concluded the qualifications based selection of Parsons Harland Bartholomew & Associates (Parsons HBA) as the principal planning consultant for the preparation of a plan to define the redevelopment process for the JCCC. The initial planning effort, titled the Process Definition Plan is composed of the following three components: 1. The description of an independent entity to guide and administer the redevelopment effort, 2. The development of a consensus plan that combines the values of the Task Force with the positive design attributes contained in the design charrette solutions, and 3. The preparation of a methodology to continue the planning process after the initial plan is completed. The plan was started in late August 2000 and completed in 100 days with general consensus from the Oversight Committee, Task Force and citizens that participated in the public input sessions. The Process Definition Plan was presented to a joint meeting of the Oversight Committee and Task Force at a public forum on November 16, 2000. The following is from a newspaper article that was published following the presentation: The next step for the process is a stop at the Missouri Legislature, where the task force will likely ask lawmakers to grant permission for a 10-person "redevelopment entity," comprised of three officials each from city, county, and state government. A chairman for the board will likely be appointed by the governor. The "entity" will work with a series of fund-raising, real estate, planning and citizen's advisory committees to push the huge project forward. According to Randy Allen, director of the Division of Design and Construction for the Office of Administration, the entity would "acquire the property at some point, and use a whole bunch of ways to make this work financially."

George Dickie Associates Executive Summary Introduction In July of 1999, the State of Missouri, through the Division of Design & Construction, developed a task list to address the upcoming decommissioning of the Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC). By the end of 1999, a newly formed Task Force had started the preparation of an evaluation of its concepts, values and priorities. After successfully conducting a statewide design charrette for the JCCC in April 2000, the State of Missouri began the initial planning effort, titled the Process Definition Plan. The plan was started in late August 2000 and completed in 100 days with general consensus from the Oversight Committee, Task Force and citizens that participated in the public input sessions. The plan was presented to a joint meeting of the Oversight Committee and Task Force at a public forum on November 16, 2000. Background & HistoryThe Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC) is located in the central east end of Jefferson City, within the city limits. The site is bounded on the north by the Missouri River and the Union Pacific Railroad; on the east by a privately owned parcel of land and Riverside Park; on the south by Riverside Drive, Capitol Avenue, Lafayette St. and East State St; and on the west by a parcel of land owned by the Jefferson City Housing Authority. The Missouri State Penitentiary (later named Jefferson City Correctional Center) was the first prison built west of the Mississippi River. It was authorized in 1832 and approved by the General Assembly in 1833. By the time the first prisoner arrived in 1836, it covered a four-acre tract on the eastern edge of Jefferson City. Today, the entire site of the Jefferson City Correctional Center covers approximately 142 acres (47 acres within the perimeter walls) of river bluff land, seven blocks east of the State Capitol. Some of the area outside the walls is undeveloped wooded ridges and valleys along the Missouri River. The character of the adjoining neighborhoods range from the well-maintained historic renovation of the “Marmaduke House,” the former warden’s house at Capitol and Lafayette, to a number of aging, poorly maintained houses found within the area. The area is included in a district classified as “distressed.” Currently a new Missouri State Corrections Facility is under construction. When the new facility is complete, the current operations of the Jefferson City Correctional Center will be moved to the new facility. The decommissioning and subsequent redevelopment of the Jefferson City Correctional Center site provides both a unique challenge and a rare opportunity. It is not often that such a large site so close to the center of a state capital becomes available. The range of redevelopment options offered for the site is wide and quite varied. The site also includes a widely diverse array of existing land uses and facilities.

Division of Design & Construction Master Plan for Redevelopment Process Definition Plan Jefferson City Correctional Center PARSONS HBA in association with ES - 2 Development Strategies . Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Executive Summary The Task Force In preparation for eventual disposition of the Jefferson City Correctional Center property, a 24-member task force was formed consisting of representatives of the State of Missouri, Cole County and the City of Jefferson as well as local civic organizations. The Task Force organized the redevelopment options and priorities as follows: A. Historic Value of the Property B. Historic Value of the Buildings C. Planning Values D. Potential Uses Parts A and B are closely linked and attempt to assess the historical value of the existing facility. Part A refers to the property, as a whole or in sections, and Part B refers to specific buildings. In assessing the extent to which the property should be preserved, Task Force members also considered specific buildings or groups of building. Part C, “Planning Values,” explored the relative importance of a list of planning values as related to the development of the property. The planning values deemed to be most important by the Task Force were rank ordered with cost effectiveness, historic preservation and community acceptance among the top three. Finally, in Part D, the Task Force considered a long list of potential uses proposed for the property. Thirty-nine potential uses had been identified, and six more were written in during the evaluation process. Of these, parks and other public uses ranked generally highest, and private development for residential or industrial purposes ranked lowest. Plan Description The Process Definition Plan contained in this report is composed of three primary chapters: Redevelopment Entity Consensus Plan The Planning Process Redevelopment Entity The Parsons HBA Project Team has conducted research and a case study analysis of nine examples of redevelopment organization in a variety of communities across the U.S. to assess and recommend a management organization that can oversee redevelopment of the JCCC site. Based upon the research and assessment, this plan recommends that a corporate entity be created to develop a Framework Plan for the JCCC site and its access facilities. Its mission should be to oversee development and implementation of the Framework Plan in a manner that is fiscally responsible to the residents of the State of Missouri. It is recommended that the corporation be identified as the Missouri

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Executive Summary Figure 1: The Consensus Plan State Penitentiary Redevelopment Corporation, as the JCCC will continue its operations at another location in 2003. The Missouri State Penitentiary Redevelopment Corporation (MSP Redevelopment Corporation) shall have a governing board composed of ten members appointed by the State of Missouri, Cole County, and the City of Jefferson and members shall possess the skills, talents, and resources necessary to collectively fulfill the mission of the MSP Redevelopment Corporation. The composition of the board is derived to support the corporation's efforts in securing civic, public and private support for the mission of the corporation and to facilitate the governmental approval process that will be required to implement any project(s) proposed for the JCCC property and access corridors. The governing board should adopt by-laws that address the practical, internal rules of the organization and provide guidance, structure, and formality to the organization. It is also recommended that a Citizen's Advisory Committee (CAC) be initiated to advise the board on issues that involve the public at large and to assist the board and public agencies in developing long-term financial and public support for the project. The CAC can be loosely organized and, while the CAC would serve primarily in an advisory capacity, a representative from the CAC should be selected to serve on the governing board of the MSP Redevelopment Corporation. Consensus Plan During the 100-day period in which the Consensus Plan was prepared, there were a total of 11 events in which design concepts were presented, reviewed, comments received and revisions made to the plan. Each Task Force workshop event provided guidance in the preparation of the Consensus Plan. Two public input meetings were conducted to solicit comment from the general public. A Planning Advisory Team workshop was conducted for the purpose of an independent review of the Consensus Plan process and product.
State of Missouri . Division of Design & Construction Master Plan for Redevelopment Process Definition Plan Jefferson City Correctional Center PARSONS HBA in association with ES - 4 Development Strategies . Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Executive Summary The Project Team prepared the Consensus Plan based on site visits, cursory facility review, data collection and familiarity with the Jefferson City region. This plan is intended to be the launch point of further study, analysis and public participation in the months ahead. Additionally, the Consensus Plan is intended to be as inclusive as possible, so as not to eliminate future development opportunities for the community. The Consensus Plan incorporates the discussion and direction of the Task Force based on their previous study efforts, the Design Charrette process and the Parsons HBA team’s interpretation of project planning issues. Through the synthesis of this information, seven general “land use” categories were developed for illustration on the Consensus Plan. Each area is defined by color, indicating where certain activities should be allowed to develop. The Planning Process One purpose of this plan is to define the future planning activities subsequent to completion of this plan. To that end, the next planning process has been identified as the “Framework Plan”. The Framework Plan components define the process and approach that will be required to complete the various planning tasks. It is envisioned that the Framework Plan will be completed in distinct but linked components: The Feasibility Component will identify market-based development opportunities, evaluate economics of redevelopment and assess public benefits through multiplier and fiscal impacts. The Community Component will put the Framework Plan in neighborhood and community context, facilitate public involvement and communications and integrate land use, urban design, infrastructure and traffic planning principles into the plan. The Facility Component will define the site and building conditions that currently exist on the site, prepare a redevelopment program based on adaptive reuse, selected demolition and new construction opportunities and create a project that integrates quality land use, urban design, infrastructure and traffic planning principles into the plan. Other Activities included in the Framework Plan include review and evaluation of existing facilities and documents, a phase one environmental site assessment, preliminary archeology studies and coordination with state and federal agencies. Summary The concepts and vision contained within this plan represent a broad spectrum of individual as well as organizational contributions of time and talent. Based on the results of the presentation to a joint meeting of the Oversight Committee, the Task Force and general public on November 16, 2000, the content of that presentation and the content of this Process Definition Plan has achieved general consensus.

George Dickie Associates Background & History Figure 2: Location Map Introduction The Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC) is located in the central east end of Jefferson City, within the city limits. The site is bounded on the north by the Missouri River and the Union Pacific Railroad; on the east by a privately owned parcel of land and Riverside Park; on the south by Riverside Drive, Capitol Avenue, Lafayette St. and East State St; and on the west by a parcel of land owned by the Jefferson City Housing Authority. The Missouri State Penitentiary (later named Jefferson City Correctional Center) was the first prison built west of the Mississippi River. It was authorized in 1832 and approved by the General Assembly in 1833. By the time the first prisoner arrived in 1836, it covered a four-acre tract on the eastern edge of Jefferson City. As the years passed, capacity was periodically increased. By 1900, the property had grown to almost a third of its present size. By the late 1930’s, a century after the penitentiary had opened, the walled area of the prison had grown to its current 47-acre size and the housing units were woefully overcrowded. At that time, a building program was undertaken, with the assistance of the WPA, providing many new buildings and replacing other, badly dilapidated buildings. Buildings remaining from that time include Housing Unit 7, the Furniture Factory, the License Plate Factory and the Chemical Products Building (1936), the Old Powerhouse, Housing Unit 6, the Hospital Building, and the Garage (1937), and the Administration, Food Service and Canteen Buildings and Housing Units 2A and B and 5A and B (1938). Also built at this time was the Gas Chamber (1937), which was Missouri’s instrument of capital punishment from 1938 until 1989. Thirty-nine people were executed between 1938 and 1965, when a hiatus in executions began. The fortieth and last person to be executed in that building, in January 1989, was the first in the state to be executed by lethal injection. After that, “death row” moved to the correctional center at Potosi. In 1965, the new Governor appointed a new Director of the Department of Corrections who would begin a comprehensive process of reform for the prison. Not only were new rules made and

A new recreation building (1966) jointed the new gymnasium that had been completed in 1965. A grandstand was built in 1966 at the athletic fields in the lower recreation yard. A Warehouse (1972) was added to the industrial area. More recent construction inside the walls has included the All-Faith Chapel (1980) and the Education Building (also 1980) built on the foundation of a building burned in the 1954 riot. The most recent building in the compound is the 1982 Housing Unit 5C, also known as “Super-Max.” This is a maximum-security unit for the most unruly prisoners. The entire site of the Jefferson City Correctional Center covers 142 acres (47 acres within the perimeter walls) of river bluff land, seven blocks east of the State Capitol Building. Some of the area outside the walls is undeveloped wooded ridges and valleys along the Missouri River. Neighborhood Context The character of the adjoining neighborhoods range from the well-maintained historic renovation of the “Marmaduke House,” the former warden’s house at Capitol and Lafayette, to a number of aging, poorly maintained houses found within the area. The area is included in a district classified as “distressed.” The actual land uses include high-rise apartment buildings to the west of the JCCC, numerous commercial office conversions of residences along State St., Lafayette St., and Capitol Avenue and the single and multi-family residences along Capitol Avenue and Riverside Drive. A wholesale grocery supplier, located on State St., is the only non-office commercial usage, and the shoe factory

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Background & History Figure 4: View of the Capitol Building Looking West building on the north side of Capitol Avenue is the only light industrial usage in this area. The current zoning in the adjacent neighborhoods includes single- and multi-family residential (RS-4 & RA-2), neighborhood commercial (C-1), Central Commercial (C-3), Light Industrial (M-1), and Planned Development (PUD). The JCCC Site is shown as single family residential (RS-1) on the current Jefferson City Zoning maps, but will most likely be zoned as a planned commercial development should it be transferred to private ownership. The area to the east and southeast of the site has been developed as Riverside Park by the City of Jefferson and includes ball fields, picnic areas and a swimming pool. The site currently has access points at the Main Entrance of JCCC on the corner of State and Lafayette Streets; at Chestnut Street for the Industries Area and at the intersection of Capitol Avenue and Riverside Drive for the Surplus Property and Training Academy area (Minor’s Hill). The city streets of Capitol Avenue, High Street, and McCarty Street provide the east west access with Lafayette Street being utilized as the main north south access route. There is no direct access to the Hwy 50-63 Expressway, four blocks to the south of the site. The nearest access to the Expressway is at the Monroe Street intersection. A preliminary conceptual design for a direct access to the site proposes an extension of Clark Avenue with access to Highway 50-63 provided by an enhanced interchange at the Clark Avenue location. Other proposals under consideration include new interchanges on Hwy 50-63 at Lafayette Street or Chestnut Street. Highway planners favor the Clark Avenue extension, while city residents appear to favor Lafayette or Chestnut St. Currently a new Missouri State Corrections Facility is under construction. When the new facility is complete, the current operations of the Jefferson City Correctional Center will be moved to the new facility. The decommissioning and subsequent redevelopment of the Jefferson City Correctional Center site provides both a unique challenge and a rare

The site also includes a widely diverse array of existing land uses and facilities. The Task Force In preparation for eventual disposition of the Jefferson City Correctional Center property, a 24-member task force was formed consisting of representatives of the State of Missouri, Cole County and the City of Jefferson, as well as civic organizations. Beginning in September 1999, this Task Force has worked to assimilate, evaluate and document numerous concepts and proposals for site redevelopment. Through meetings, town-hall discussions, a design charrette, public forums and surveys, the Task Force has tried to identify and prioritize available redevelopment options for the site. The Task Force organized the redevelopment options and priorities as follows: A. Historic Value of the Property B. Historic Value of the Buildings C. Planning Values D. Potential Uses Parts A and B are closely linked and attempt to assess the historical value of the existing facility. Part A refers to the property, as a whole or in sections, and Part B refers to specific buildings. In assessing the extent to which the property should be preserved, Task Force members also considered specific buildings or groups of buildings. While there is extensive historic value in the site, redevelopment

George Dickie Associates Background & History Figure 6: Gas Chamber – Built 1937 concepts should also offer present day and future productive value. The site requires extensive renewal. Thus, the highest rank preference for preservation of property (Part A) was “selected buildings in the upper and lower yard areas.” Part B provides a ranking of which buildings were considered highest priority to save (the entire list is in the appendix): 1. Housing Unit 4 (A – Hall) 2. Housing Unit 1 (Old Admin. Building) 3. Housing Unit 3A & B 4. Upper Yard Wall and Towers 5. Gas Chamber Part C, “Planning Values,” explored the relative importance of a list of values as related to the development of the property. The planning values deemed to be most important by the Task Force, in order of rank, were: • Cost effectiveness – reuse plans should be developed toward self-sufficiency without long-term support required by government or community funding. • Historic preservation – the property has a rich heritage with national recognition. Some portion should be retained with emphasis on a sense of history. • Community acceptance/local usability/compatibility – any concept should recognize the diversity of the local community, should harmonize with it and be an amenity which welcomes and serves the community. • Vistas – facilities should be oriented to enhance and not impede the great views offered by the site. • Tourism – redevelopment concepts should be directed toward attracting and serving statewide and national tourism. • Recreation – at least some of the site should include opportunities for recreation, both structured and not, both indoors and out. • Economic impact – proposed uses should ultimately create a positive economic position within the community and the state.
State of Missouri . Division of Design & Construction Master Plan for Redevelopment Process Definition Plan Jefferson City Correctional Center PARSONS HBA in association with BH - 6 Development Strategies . Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Background & History • Long-term flexibility – concepts should provide flexibility for future growth and adjustment with changing environments and needs. • Open space – for recreation or otherwise, open space was deemed to be an important value in the redevelopment plan. Finally, in Part D, the Task Force considered a long list of potential uses proposed for the property. Thirty-nine potential uses had been identified, and six more were written in during the evaluation process. Of these, parks and other public uses ranked generally highest, and private development for residential or industrial purposes ranked lowest. The entire list is available in the appendix, but the top three uses were: 1. Riverfront Park 2. Missouri State Penitentiary Museum 3. Historic Site An additional issue appears in fourth place: access to Adrian’s Island. This island in the Missouri River was donated to the City of Jefferson a number of years ago for public use, but there has been no good way to access it. Once JCCC moves, more options for access to the island will become available. The JCCC site is large enough that many of the potential uses identified can be combined into a solution for redevelopment. Economic Considerations Any redevelopment plans for the existing JCCC site must give some thought to implied economic needs and resources available. Funding for proposed projects might come from a variety of sources, depending in part on ownership of the site. Money from the State of Missouri would require legislative funding; from Cole County or the City of Jefferson, a funding referendum may be required. Eventual private ownership may provide other options for funding, such as grants and tax credits. Conversion to private ownership may, however, eliminate some public funding options. Any proposed use must also consider ongoing maintenance budgets and the source for these funds. Numerous programs are available to provide funding assistance or financial incentives to development or redevelopment for business purposes. Brownfield Remediation tax credits and Brownfield Jobs/Investment tax credits are two programs administered by the Department of Economic Development. Tax Increment Financing (TIF) programs are also available at the state and local level for development/redevelopment projects.

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates Background & History Figure 7: Housing Unit 4 – Built 1868 State and federal historic preservation tax credits may be available to select parts of the JCCC site. Such tax credits require approval by the Historic Preservation Office of the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and adherence to strict design and rehabilitation guidelines. While no JCCC buildings are currently on the National Register of Historic Places, several structures qualify as “historic structures” for national register consideration per DNR historic preservation guidelines. Furthermore, the Jefferson City Historic District could be expanded, further reinforcing the potential to gain national historical status. The Jefferson City Historic Preservation Commission has designated Housing Unit # 4 landmark status. Several different types of business development are eligible for funding in the form of tax credits. These generally require the site to be in a “distressed area,” a designation that would apply to the existing JCCC site. Rebuilding communities tax credits target specific types of businesses, such as software design and programming, manufacturing, telecommunications, or professional firms. Individual training accounts provide credits for training either existing or new employees. The winery/grape growers tax credit is specifically targeted to businesses growing grapes or producing wine. A film production tax credit would encourage opportunities in movies, commercials, music videos and television productions. Assistance is available to new and expanding businesses needing upgraded infrastructure to carry out their plans. These include Community Development Block Grants for public entities, Missouri Development Finance Board contribution tax credits, and Transportation Development tax credits. Residential development has a largely different array of financing possibilities. Historic preservation tax credits from the state might be available under the same restrictions for business development. Neighborhood preservation tax credits are available for owner-occupied residential construction. Community Bank tax credits target low-income areas similar to the “distressed” areas mentioned previously. These allow for equity or business loans and redevelopment of either residential or commercial areas.

George Dickie Associates Background & History Figure 8: Administration Building – Built 1938 Community Development tax credit programs, such as the Neighborhood Assistance Program, specifically target projects that deal with community services, physical revitalization, economic development, crime prevention, education, and job training. Environmental Considerations Environmental issues, both existing and future, should be addressed. This could include recycling of demolished building components, energy conservation, resource preservation, healthy/well buildings, water and energy conserving design and landscaping, sustainable building design. The State of Missouri intends to address all known existing “hazardous material” issues before the site is redeveloped. All demolition, renovation and new construction envisioned should also be planned in a manner that respects the environment and is sustainable in the future. Portions of the site are undeveloped, so many opportunities are available. To determine the highest and best possible use of the overall site all development opportunities must be explored. Development entities must synthesize a myriad of issues into a coherent plan. The final master plan may include several different uses, but the whole site must be integrated into Jefferson City in the best possible way. Development options need to consider such things as traffic and transportation, local neighborhood context, the mix of public/private uses, land planning, historic preservation issues, utility infrastructures, etc. Financial feasibility and environmental impact of the proposed redevelopment must also be considered.

George Dickie Associates Redevelopment Entity PROPOSED MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF THE JEFFERSON CITY CORRECTIONAL CENTER (JCCC) Introduction The Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC) is a State of Missouri owned maximum-security facility that began operating in 1836. Through the decades, the facility has grown as structures have been constructed, additional land has been acquired, and business enterprises and resident services have been added. Today, the site now encompasses over 50 structures on 142 acres of land located above the river bluff in central Jefferson City. Thus, the announcement to close the site for use as a correctional facility was met with great concern by state, county and local officials. Beginning in 1999, the State of Missouri began to consider what to do with the JCCC facility upon its closure. A Task Force was convened to provide early planning and guidance towards determining an approach and process for redevelopment of the site into uses that would benefit the public and be fiscally responsible to the State of Missouri, the City of Jefferson, and Cole County. It is anticipated that legislation will be introduced in the 2001 legislative session to establish a management structure and guidelines for the redevelopment process for reuse of the JCCC. This section represents a working draft of major issues and objectives to be addressed in the proposed legislation. As part of the Parsons HBA project team, Development Strategies, Inc., (DSI) of St. Louis, researched other cases where similar redevelopment issues and challenges occurred, and recommended a management organization and structure for redevelopment of the JCCC site. As part of the research, DSI examined nine other Figure 9: Redevelopment Entity Mission

George Dickie Associates Redevelopment Entity Figure 10: Redevelopment Entity Objectives redevelopment organizations located throughout the country that were charged with the planning and redevelopment of highly specialized facilities, such as a correctional facility, airport, and military bases. Development Strategies was charged with making recommendations to the JCCC Task Force regarding how public and community officials could organize their efforts in creating an effective program for redevelopment. From this research process, it is recommended that a corporation with a governing board be created to develop a Framework Plan for the JCCC site and its access facilities, and that this organization oversee development and implementation of the Framework Plan. The following outlines recommendations with regard to the board's mission, objectives, governance structure, and powers. Mission and Objectives It is recommended that upon adoption of State legislation creating a corporation to oversee redevelopment of the JCCC site, that the site be referred to as the Missouri State Penitentiary (MSP), and the corporation be referred to as the Missouri State Penitentiary Redevelopment Corporation (MSPRC). This will clarify the distinctions between the current JCCC site and the new site, when the JCCC moves its operations to its new location in 2003. Mission The mission of the Missouri State Penitentiary Redevelopment Corporation ("the Corporation") is to prepare a plan and carry out a development program for reuse of the JCCC. The Corporation is to oversee the reuse of the Jefferson City Correctional Center property and grounds in a manner that is fiscally responsible to the residents of the State of Missouri.

George Dickie Associates Redevelopment Entity To lease or rent any land, building, structure, facility or equipment comprising all or a portion of a projects, projects or part of a project for such amounts as the corporation determines; To make and execute all contracts and other instruments necessary or convenient to the exercise of its powers. Citizen's Advisory Committee It is also recommended that a Citizen's Advisory Committee (CAC) be initiated to advise the board on issues that involve the public at large and to assist the board and public agencies in developing long term support for the project. Citizen's Advisory Committees can be beneficial in lobbying for resources, such as federal grants and loans, and in providing a channel through which the board can communicate to the public on issues relating to the planning and development of the site. The CAC can be loosely organized and structured, and interest and participation from the committee will likely wax and wane in tandem with the types of activities being addressed by the board. While the CAC would serve primarily in an advisory capacity, a representative from the CAC should be selected to serve on the board of the redevelopment corporation. Funding Resources will be required in the pre-development stages of the project to cover costs such as engineering, architectural analysis, environmental and feasibility analyses to determine and refine development opportunities and project costs. Resources will also be required to cover ongoing administrative and operations costs for the corporation and for maintenance of the facility property prior to redevelopment. An individual and supporting staff should be recruited to manage and execute the functions of the board. An important task for the executive staff will be to seek capital and administrative funds to assist in paying for pre-development costs and long-term operating costs of administering to the board in carrying out its objectives.

George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan Figure 13: Task Force Evaluation Method Introduction The Consensus Plan presented below represents hundreds of man-hours of work contributed from citizens, professionals, staff and elected officials over the last eighteen (18) months. While prepared by the Parsons HBA Team, the Consensus Plan is the product of a series of events and activities sponsored and implemented by the State of Missouri, Division of Design & Construction. On July 30, 1999, the Division of Design & Construction prepared management task list for the JCCC redevelopment project. Top on the list was the task, “Organize Task Force”. By December of 1999, the newly formed Task Force, made up of approximately 24 members, was in the process of formulating the Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities, a document that when coupled with the others listed below, would be the basis for the preparation of the Consensus Plan. The events and activities that the Consensus Plan is based upon included: 1. Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities 2. The Design Charrette Process 3. Review and Input Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities By February 2000 the Task Force had prepared an Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities document for the redevelopment of JCCC. This process formalized the Task Force’s views on a wide range of subjects including: 1. Historic Value of the Property 2. Historic Value of the Buildings 3. Planning Values 4. Potential Uses The following descriptions summarize the findings of the Task Force’s Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities.

Task Force Workshop #3A, October 4, 2000 Each Task Force workshop event provided guidance in the preparation of the Consensus Plan. Material was presented and discussed until general agreement was reached with the members in attendance. Often, the plan was modified to address concerns offered by members of the Task Force. Two public input meetings were conducted to solicit comment from the general public. Most concerns from the public centered around access to the site and the impact upon the surrounding neighborhoods. Again, the Consensus Plan was fine-tuned to reflect citizens’ concerns while maintaining the integrity of the Consensus Plan. A Planning Advisory Team workshop was conducted for the purpose of an independent review of the Consensus Plan process and product. Comments from this workshop helped to refine the scope and ultimate feasibility of the Consensus Plan. The Planning Advisory Team was composed of city planners, urban designers, architects, engineers, historians, economists and developers.

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan The Planning Process The Parsons HBA Project Team prepared the Consensus Plan based on site visits, cursory facility review, data collection and familiarity with the Jefferson City region. The primary basis of the design concepts contained in the Consensus Plan are stated on page CP – 1. The following diagrams are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as market endorsements or a statement of financial feasibility. This plan is intended to be the launch point of further study, analysis and public participation in the months ahead. Additionally, the Consensus Plan is intended to be as inclusive as possible, so as not to eliminate future development opportunities for the community. It is suggested that the broadest interpretation of land uses and program items be maintained until a Framework Plan is prepared. The chapter titled “The Planning Process” describes in more detail the future events associated with the preparation of the Framework Plan for the redevelopment of the Jefferson City Correctional Center. The Consensus Plan Formulation The Consensus Plan, as stated above, is a product of the Task Force’s efforts, the charrette design solutions and an iterative process of plan review and modification. The Parsons HBA team has prepared the Consensus Plan utilizing the following outline: 1. Community Impacts 2. Streetscape/Access Corridors 3. Land Use Designations Figure 22: The 142 Acre JCCC Site

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan Community Impacts The redevelopment of the JCCC will have an impact on the surrounding neighborhood, downtown Jefferson City and the capitol complex. The Consensus Plan identifies this community fabric interface and the plan illustrates the necessity to provide linkages, corridors and gateways to the surrounding community. Streetscape/Access Corridors The JCCC site is connected to the neighborhoods, downtown and capitol complex through the existing street system. The street corridors offer a wide range of positive impacts on redevelopment potential. The streetscape/access corridors can offer utility corridors, traffic access, and a visually enhanced environment for pedestrians and motorists. Utility corridors and connections needed to serve the JCCC currently exist and will be maintained as the facilities are still in use. Future planning, programming and preparation of capital improvement budgets by the City of Jefferson, and other agencies should now anticipate Figure 23: Community Impacts
State of Missouri . Division of Design & Construction Master Plan for Redevelopment Process Definition Plan Jefferson City Correctional Center PARSONS HBA in association with CP - 12 Development Strategies . Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan the future requirements of the JCCC redevelopment potential. Likewise, corridors to the site will need to be enhanced to provide adequate traffic access to and from the site. The Consensus Plan identifies this as a planning issue that will allow the city and other agencies time to properly plan for the necessary enhancements. Vehicular access to the JCCC site will be one of the single most important factors in the successful redevelopment of this complex. Access to the neighborhoods, the other surrounding districts and the highway system must be direct, attractive and functional, and it must happen early in the development process. The Consensus Plan provides city, state and federal authorities with the challenge to address the site access issue early in the redevelopment process. While no specific solution is offered in the Consensus Plan, the early alert has been issued via this plan. Aesthetic enhancements to the streetscape will also be critical to the successful redevelopment of JCCC. Enhancements to the public streetscape signals community support for private development as well as provides a positive, attractive setting for future employment centers. Streetscape linkages provide physical and visual connections to other community districts. Downtown Jefferson City streetscape improvements can be extended to the JCCC site providing continuity in signage, street tree plantings, site furniture, pavement types, cross walks and traffic control devices. Similar extensions of the streetscape to the capitol complex Figure 24: Neighborhood Impacts

George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan Figure 25: The Program Statement can link employment, business and entertainment centers one to the other through walkway connections, mass transit or individual vehicles via streetscapes that are well designed, functional and an incentive to development. Other streetscape/access corridors that provide connection to the community include linkages to Lincoln University, U.S. Highway 50 and Ellis-Porter Park. These corridors will also provide numerous opportunities that will not only integrate the JCCC into the community but also upgrade conditions throughout the City of Jefferson. Land Use Designations Building on the materials generated by the Task Force, the Parsons HBA Team began the initial efforts in preparation of the Consensus Plan. The tasks involved in this activity included a program statement and the preparation of an illustrative site diagram. The Program Statement was prepared utilizing the Task Forces’ Evaluation of Values, Concepts and Priorities, grouping similar or functionally compatible elements together and separating non compatible uses one from the other. Several major land use titles formulated through the design charrette process were identified as representative of program items and design charrette solutions. These titles included: Judicial Center Area Historic Area Community Area Office Area Landing Area Entertainment Area Natural Resources Area

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Consensus Plan Figure 26: “Bubble Diagram” Program elements from the Task Force and the design charrette process were grouped and assigned under these titles. The resulting Program Statement was then reviewed with the Task Force, the public, the Oversight Committee, the Planning Advisory Team and Division of Design & Construction staff representatives. Once general consensus was reached on the Program Statement, an illustrative bubble diagram was created to indicate within the physical constraints how the land within the 142 acres of the JCCC site might ultimately be redeveloped. Three “bubble diagram” alternative solutions for the redevelopment of JCCC were formulated, discussed and modified with the aid of the Task Force, comment from the public and conformation from the Planning Advisory Committee. As a result of this process a Consensus Plan was formulated, a plan founded on two key principals: 1. There is a core group of buildings that must be retained, and 2. The site must have good, well defined vehicular access The first assigned “land use” to the bubble diagram and subsequently to the Consensus Plan, was the establishment of a historic area. The second element applied to the site diagram was the indication of a parkway from the western beginning of the site, through what is now the prison wall, connecting in with East Capitol Avenue near Benton Street. Secondary access from Chestnut to the new parkway loops the area immediately east of the prisons’ east wall and ties into Riverside Drive. The exact locations of these roadways have not yet been determined; however, the concept of adequate vehicular access is generally accepted as a primary prerequisite for redevelopment. The following diagrams and descriptions illustrate the findings and consensus of the Task Force.

The seven general “land use” categories are shown on the Consensus Plan. Each area is defined by color, indicating where certain activities should be allowed to develop. The activities within each area were derived during the process of developing the Consensus Plan. The Consensus Plan consist of the following 7 areas: Judicial Center Area Historic Area Community Area Office Area Landing Area Entertainment Area Natural Resources Area Figure 27: The Consensus Plan

This same area however, offers the greatest of challenges to retain, renovate and preserve the history of the area. While further study will be required to confirm the adaptive reuse potential of selected buildings, several structures have emerged as highly desirable for reuse in the Consensus Plan. These buildings form the core of the Historic Area and include housing units 1 through 5 and the gas chamber building. Potential uses for these existing historic structures and other uses include: 1. Historic Site 2. Prison Museum 3. Riverfront Park Linkage 4. Adaptive Reuse of Selected Buildings Inside The Walls 5. The Upper and Lower Walls 6. Support Retail / Commercial 7. Other Museums 8.

The historic wall with proposed selected “wall openings” and pedestrian promenades offer many opportunities to link the JCCC redevelopment into the neighborhood fabric. The physical location of the Community Area also provides a reasonable land use transition between the existing neighborhoods and the entertainment and office districts to the north and east.

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Planning Process Introduction The emergence and formulation of the redevelopment planning process for the Jefferson City Correctional Center (JCCC) began in July 1999 and will most likely continue for the next several years, while the redevelopment transitions from planning and design to implementation. The preparation of the Process Definition Plan represents the beginning of the planning activities and the formulation of the elements of the Framework Plan. The Preamble The planning process was started by the State of Missouri, Office of Administration, Division of Design & Construction on July 30, 1999 and progressed quickly to the formulation of an Oversight Committee and Task Force whose purpose for redevelopment stated that: 1. A new JCCC facility would be constructed 2. The existing facility is no longer needed as a correctional center 3. Planning of redevelopment is essential Guided by a set of principles that continue (and will continue) to direct the planning process, the Task Force through the State of Missouri selected a planning team lead by Parsons HBA to assist in the planning of the redevelopment of the JCCC. The goals set forth included: 1. Support broad involvement and participation in redevelopment planning 2. Seek the highest and best use of the site 3. Address redevelopment costs and value of property Figure 38: Task Force Mission

Prepare a consensus plan for redevelopment to provide the greatest benefit to all The Process Definition Plan The initial planning effort, titled the Process Definition Plan is composed of the following three components: 1. The description of an independent entity to guide and administer the redevelopment effort 2. The development of a consensus plan that combines the values of the Task Force with the positive design attributes contained in the design charrette solutions, and 3. The preparation of a methodology to continue the planning process after the initial plan is completed The plan was started in late August 2000 and completed in 100 days with general consensus from the Oversight Committee, Task Force and citizens that participated in the public input sessions. The Process Definition Plan was presented to a joint meeting of the Oversight Committee and Task Force at a public forum on November 16, 2000. The completion of the Process Definition Plan also marked the completion of the Task Force’s duties and responsibilities. Future direction, guidance and input will be channeled through the redevelopment entity.

George Dickie Associates The Planning Process Figure 40: Planning Process – Framework Plan The Framework Plan As stated earlier, one of the purposes of the Process Definition Plan is to define the future planning activities subsequent to completion of this plan. To that end, the next planning process has been identified as the “Framework Plan”. The Framework Plan components define the process and approach that will be required to complete the various planning tasks. The central component of the Framework Plan is the redevelopment entity, which will consist of: 1. An organization, responsible for oversight of the planning process 2. The planning management team (the State of Missouri, Division of Design & Construction) responsible for the technical oversight of the planning process 3. The planning team, the consulting team commissioned to prepare the technical, functional and creative solutions of The Framework Plan

Trivers Associates . TSI Engineering . William Tao & Associates . George Dickie Associates The Planning Process The redevelopment entity will take on the duties and responsibilities that have been previously assigned to the Task Force. As the complexity of the planning process and decision process increases, the oversight responsibilities of the redevelopment entity may be delegated to subcommittees and to the planning management team. A key task of the redevelopment entity will be the inclusion of the community in the preparation of the Framework Plan. The planning management team responsibilities are envisioned as being completed by the Division of Design & Construction. Utilizing the resources and experience of the division, the planning management team will oversee the contract administration, planning schedule, implementation planning and will ensure that the Framework Plan is comprehensive in approach, scope and product. The planning team will provide the methodology, technical expertise and creative skills to complete the Framework Plan while exploring the opportunities for implementation of the redevelopment plan. It is envisioned that the Framework Plan will be completed in three distinct but linked components. The first is the feasibility component. Figure 41: Existing Conditions Map

Identify market-based development opportunities 2. Evaluate economics of redevelopment 3. Assess public benefits through multiplier and fiscal impacts In order to accomplish these objectives, the tasks below will lead to a preliminary market and program potential suitable for the Framework Plan. It is anticipated that greater detail and analysis will have to follow once general agreement has been reached on development possibilities and parameters. 1. Review, analyze, and summarize market support data 2. Prepare an economic analysis of the greater Jefferson City and mid-Missouri economy and an evaluation of the potential for "capturing" future economic changes and growth including means for doing so 3. Conduct interviews of key individuals and groups to explore development and implementation possibilities 4. Prepare a briefing paper that expands on the previous interim report on economic potentials, implementation options, and
