~ 4 '4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report considers a Study Area bounded by Wilson Mills Road, I-271, White Road and SOM Center Road (SR 91) in Mayfield village, Ohio. Chapter I relates the Village's profile to those of its surrounding I-271 Corridor and Cuyahoga County as a whole. The contrast between growth in I-271 traffic and the relatively stable populations of the Corridor and Village since 1970 are clear. Their populations are aging. The Village's per capita income is significantly larger than in the Corridor or County. New housing has been built in response to the needs of smaller households. Median owner and renter unit values, and per capita nonresidential values, indicate that Mayfield Village ranks among the County's most prosperous communities today. Chapter II examines the current development patterns of the Village and the Study Area. While the Village's density and types of housing are similar to other typical suburban communities, its percent of developed land allocated to residential and municipal facilities is far below the allocations in these communities. Conversely, a much higher percent of business and industrial development exists in Mayfield Village. This is particularly evident in the Study Area which also includes about one-fourth of all remaining vacant land in the Village. Further analyses of existing development within the Study Area are included. Chapter III identifies Study Area development potentials in terms of "Development Areas" in which the majority of land is vacant, or redevelopment is indicated. Four such areas are delineated and analyzed in detail. Chapter IV articulates Study Area development opportunities. These residential, business, industrial and public land use opportunities are based on conclusions drawn in Chapters I-III, and lead directly to the Land Use Plan. Chapter V describes the recommended Study Area Land Use Plan c;~hich includes the following components: Residential: The Plan's objective is to augment Mayfield Village's significantly lower percent of residential development than in other typical suburban communities. Essential implementation steps are: rezoning of all zoned office-laboratory and production-distribution land north of Highland Road to single family residential; and securing assurances that Parkview Golf Course will remain as an important recreation/open space component.
