About the Planning Process

ApprovalProcess

  • Staff will compile all the assessment information, Consultant reports, budget estimates, SWOT analysis, and Visions into a cohesive document.
  • Development Staff will work with the P&R staff to develop concrete objectives and tasks to accomplish the vision.
  • This information will be incorporated into the compilation and a report presented to the P&R committee at the meeting in December.
  • It will then work its way through the approval process from there.
Monitor and Review
  • Annual work plans will be prepared that accomplish the plan
  • Evaluations of the work plan will be conducted annually to determine if progress is being made and if the direction is still on track

S.W.O.T. Analysis

SWOT

Trails, Trees & Beautification Vision

  • Utilize rivers for future greenway growth.
  • Continue to account for greeway space when building roads and aquiring right of ways.
  • Look for an opportunity to build walking trails near Walters State Community College.

Staff note: Because the most viable funding source for future Greenway/Trail Development is through TDOT Enhancement/Alternative Transportation Grants and private sector partnerships; future Greenway Planning and Management should become a standalone Staff Responsibility shared by several departments utilizing all available resources to maximize any opportunities as it affects Sevierville’s future Recreation, Transportation and Economic Development.

Visioning

After the SWOT, P&R Committee along with staff should participate in a Visioning program where they decide what they want the P&R program to look like with the city.
