Anticipating Mixed Use Water Demand: Chapel Hill & Carrboro, NC
Creators: name: Talley, Trey
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: This report provides an overview of factors affecting water demand in mixed use developments in order to support the Orange Water and Sewer Authority’s (OWASA) ongoing efforts to update their existing Long Range Water Supply Plan. The update will extend demand projections out to 2065, and will inform future decisions regarding water resources and the potential provision of additional incentives for improved water efficiency in the OWASA service area. Given the recent trend of increased mixed use development in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, OWASA officials are interested in both the historical demand patterns of existing developments as well as information about current industry standards for estimating water demand from mixed use properties. The overarching goal is therefore to provide context for the development of more accurate water demand assumptions for modern mixed use properties. Toward that end, this report includes a summary of major drivers of water demand in mixed use properties, the effects of contextual factors at the site and institutional levels, and demand estimation methodologies that rely on land use as a means of anticipating future demands. In order to provide insight into relevant development trends in OWASA’s service area, I conducted a series of interviews with local property managers focused on specific structural, managerial, and operational factors that might explain historical water demand at each site. The primary conclusion of this research is that water use has changed substantially in recent years due to improvements in water efficiency technology and practices across nearly all development types. As a result, ongoing demand estimation projects for mixed use development—and indeed all new development in OWASA’s service area—should differentiate between historical water use rates and the lower water use rates exhibited by modern properties.

Recognizing Resegregation: The Divisive Intent and Implications of School District Transportation Policies
Creators: name: Fiedler, Lisa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: The American education system has a history of failing to provide adequate services and funding to low-income students and students of color. This study looks in depth at the transportation policies and redistricting process of three high and low-poverty school district pairs who share a geographic border. Through analyzing school district finance allocation data and conducting interviews with school district officials, I find that financing student transportation is a complicated and political issue. I find evidence to support the idea that transportation policies of whiter districts have a racially derived component and aide in keeping the district inaccessible to students of color. I conclude with recommendations for future research and policy action.

[dis]Connected 00:06:05 | Towards a cyberpunk architecture
Creators: name: Park, Hyun Jun
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2022

description: This article investigates the ways in which cyberspace inspired speculative architecture in recent decades. It focuses particularly on the characteristics and spatial potential of cyberspaces in Science Fiction literature, films and architecture. This article presents a short SF narrative developed from an award-winning short film, Hyper-Place, which the author created in 2009. Inspired by the notions of the Baudrillardian worldview, the film shares Masamune (1989), Mamoru (1995, 2001), and Wachowski’s (1999–2003) visions for cogno-technology in a cyberpunk context, especially uploaded consciousness, and it examines the spatial characteristics and potential for cyberspace. The architecture of this short cyberpunk narrative is 365 seconds and infinitely looped. The text takes an experimental position to represent multiple consciousnesses, and dual languages (English/Korean) to voice the multi-consciousnesses of the Green Brick Room. The Korean text takes the form of ‘Coding Script’ to represent a ‘background system log’. As the narrative has a cyclical structure, it starts again after one of its loops. Thus, like cyberspace, the text’s potential signification(s) remain open-ended.

Balancing the tradeoff between cost and risk: tax increment financing in practice
Creators: name: Teras, Andrew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: Much of the academic research on Tax Increment Financing (TIF) relates to its effectiveness as an economic development tool. While this master's project acknowledges the importance of this kind of research, the primary intent of this paper is to provide municipalities already committed to using TIF with a description of the basic financing mechanics of TIF, a discussion of the methods for financing TIF deals, and an analysis of the ways municipalities balance the costs and risks of TIF deals. Additionally, research published on methods of financing TIF largely focuses on analysis of investment-grade TIF bond issuances. Little has been written about the growing use of non-rated bonds, developer notes and pay-as-you-go financing. This master's project intends to build on TIF bond research to make more general conclusions about the tradeoff between the costs and risks of TIF project financing. Therefore, this master's project seeks to evaluate the following question: How do municipalities structure TIF financing deals to optimize the tradeoff between cost and risk? This question will be addressed by exploring the following secondary research questions: 1) How do municipalities execute the TIF financing process? 2) What are the major methods of financing TIF project used by major municipalities across the country? 3) What are the major trends in TIF financing structures? While the origins of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) date back to California in the 1950's, its widespread popularity among municipalities across the United States as a key economic development tool has skyrocketed in the last two decades. Currently, Arizona is the only state in the country without TIF enabling legislation. The fundamental concept of TIF encompasses the dedication of future gains in the property taxes of a defined geographic area towards re-investment in economic development projects within that area. This can take many forms, but commonly features an investment in public infrastructure (i.e. utilities, roads) in the TIF zone that incentivizes new private development interest in the zone. It can also involve the provision of funds for land acquisition, affordable housing, environmental remediation, or direct subsidies to fund hard costs for private development projects.
Making Genus
Creators: name: Nistor, Diana
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2022

description: The ‘Making Genus’ project comes as a multi-faceted response to an unassuming, mono-directional quest – creating genderless utopia. Spanning across several mediums of expression such as graphics, the moving image and fiction writing, the work encapsulates a textured, non-linear approach to world making processes. Deeply rooted in feminist science fiction and feminist epistemology, the project is defined by an attempt to employ utopian tropes to (re)write speculative narratives. The continuous, deliberate ‘joggling’ exercise between writings, drawings and films unravels a world which gradually opens itself to the reader, viewer, traveller, learner–a world depicting a post-gender utopia, a place where social constructs fade and utopian dreams become tangible realities. The weaving between science fiction, feminist theory and architectural theory comes as the most evident assembly– means of expanding the already “controversial” feminist line of thought to new dimensions, pushing its limits to fictional realms and creating worlds around its premises.

North Carolina Tax Credit for Revitalization of Historic Mill Facilities: Other States' Legislation; Legislative Process; Parameters and Rationale; and Cost and Revenue Projection
Creators: name: Stewart, Andrew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2005

description: The news hit in October of 2004. Granite Mill in Haw River and Columbia Mills in Ramseur had been bought for salvage. In the same month, it was announced that Cannon Mills in Kannapolis was coming down. There are an estimated 200 mill buildings spread throughout the state of North Carolina. As the textile industry declines, the need for these mill buildings in their current use will decline. How should the state deal with the remaining buildings? On March 2, 2005, Senators Hoyle and Hartsell introduced a bill to the North Carolina Senate titled "An Act to provide a tax credit for revitalization of historic mill facilities and to allow tax credits for certain historic rehabilitations to be transferred to long-term lessees."1 This bill has been researched and crafted by a dedicated group of professionals to help restore these endangered mill buildings and other large historic mill buildings throughout the state. I was a part of this group. After doing background research, and estimating the costs and benefits of the bill, I recommend that it be passed. The bill achieves substantial preservation and economic distribution benefits for a relatively small $20 million over the next five years, or $4 million per year for the next five years. This master's project is an analysis of all aspects of the "Mills Bill" as it has come to be known colloquially. Section 2 considers some other mill preservation legislation that has been passed in other states. Section 3 details the process of political process through which this bill traveled to its current place in front of the Senate Finance Committee. Section 4 explains the key parameters of the bill and the rationale behind those parameters. Section 5 presents a detailed cost and revenue projection for the state 1 Senate bill #352 of North Carolina as a result of the bill. Finally, in Section 6, I provide some concluding remarks thoughts about the bill.

Urban Futures
Creators: name: Lim, CJ
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2022

description: The paper examines if our raison d’être stood to interrogate the world of the built environment through a rich alchemy of science fiction, might our urban futures take alternative forms to build a fundamentally different idea of society? Science fiction and utopia are about the ‘other’ and occupy an indeterminate state beyond our consciousness. The guiding light and dare of uncertainty are crammed with spatially suggestive concepts and intensity that in provoking political commentary, also ignites our imagination. Its speculative nature consistently presents the world anew with re-invigorated critical faculties, and perhaps a greater perception of the incongruity of our society, cities and infrastructures in the age of pandemic, protests and politics. The perfect world, in the case studies, is far more imperfect than is at first seemed, where the understanding and sympathies for existing traditions of protection, provision and participation are turned upside-down.

Quantum Jump from Singularity to Outside of Black Hole

description: Considering the role of black hole singularity in quantum evolution, a resolution to the firewall paradox is presented. It is emphasized that if an observer has the singularity as a part of his spacetime, then the semi-classical evolution would be non-unitary as viewed by him. Specifically, a free-falling observer inside the black hole would have a Hilbert space with non-unitary evolution; a quantum jump for particles encountering the singularity to outside of the horizon as late Hawking radiations. The non-unitariness in the jump resembles the one in collapse of wave function, but preserves entanglements. Accordingly, we elaborate the first postulate of black hole complementarity: freely falling observers who pass through the event horizon would have non-unitary evolution, while it does not have physically measurable effects for them. Besides, no information would be lost in the singularity. Taking the modified picture into account, the firewall paradox can be resolved, respecting No Drama. A by-product of our modification is that roughly half of the entropy of the black hole is released close to the end of evaporation in the shape of very hot Hawking radiation.

Notes for an Island
Creators: name: Jobst, Marko
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2022

description: This text offers a writerly experiment aimed at developing a possible method of critical speculative fiction. The subject is an imaginary island modelled on the Cycladic island of Amorgos, Greece, which is depicted here as an all-encompassing design project driven by technologically advanced commercial machinations. The resulting fragments of speculative fiction blur the distinction between manmade and natural, architecture and landscape, commerce and myth. In doing so, the text offers a mode of writing heavy on mediated images populated by speculative subjectivities, while avoiding presenting an overtly critical stance. As such, it casts itself as a writerly equivalent of certain traditions in speculative architectural drawing.

description: In this work we will explore the properties of superconducting surfaces decorated by two-dimensional ferromagnetic adatom lattices. As discovered recently [Röntynen and Ojanen, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{114}, 236803 (2015)], in the presence of a Rashba spin-orbit coupling these systems may support topological superconductivity with complex phase diagrams and high Chern numbers. We show how the long-range hopping nature of the effective low-energy theory generically gives rise to a phase diagram covered by a \emph{Chern mosaic} -- a rich pattern of topological phases with large Chern numbers. We study different lattice geometries and the dependence of energy gaps and abundance of different phases as a function of system parameters. Our findings establish the studied system as one of the richest platforms for topological matter known to date.

A Practical Guide To Rural, Cluster-Based Economic Development Strategies
Creators: name: Brown, Rebecca
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: The North Carolina map on the cover conjures memories of primary school essays investigating state commodities, when students are asked to identify what the people of a certain state make and to whom they export it. The cartoon-like state maps may be outdated, but what they represent still holds meaning, especially for rural areas that specialize in one or a few products or services, where one or two pictures can say much about an area's economic activity. Policy makers, economic developers, planners, business associations, and others who hear about industry clusters may benefit from remembering the colorful map and what pictures they would draw to represent their region to the world. Touted as an economic development focus useful for everyone, industry clusters have received a lot of attention by academics, economic developers, chambers of commerce officials, and others in recent years. This guide is written for rural economic development practitioners and policy officials interested in understanding industry clusters. While the main purpose is to provide specific guidance to rural economic developers on identifying their area's industry cluster(s), readers are also provided with a framework for understanding clusters, whether a cluster-based economic development approach is a good idea, and what cluster strategies might be. An example from coastal North Carolina, where there is a marine trades cluster, is used throughout the guide to help place concepts in the context of a real rural place. This guide is not a comprehensive review of clusters, cluster theory, or statistical methods of cluster identification and analysis. The References section is a good starting point for readers interested in expanding their cluster research beyond these pages Cortright (2006) wrote a piece for the Brookings Institute, which is referenced throughout the guide and which goes into great detail about clusters, but less detail about conducting a cluster study. Lastly, this guide is written specifically on industry clusters, but it is increasingly common to see other nouns preceding the word cluster, such as knowledge cluster, labor skills cluster, and innovation cluster. There are significant similarities in how different clusters are treated, but significant differences as well.

description: Planet City is an urgent examination of the productive potential of extreme densification in an imagined future where ten billion people surrender the rest of the planet to a global wilderness. In a vision that runs counter to our current world, the project describes a radical reversal of planetary sprawl, where humans retreat from our vast network of cities and supply chains into one hyper-dense metropolis. Not a techno-utopian fantasy, this work of critical architecture and speculative fiction is grounded in statistical analysis, research, and traditional knowledge. This is essay has been developed from the transcript of the Planet City TED Talk delivered August 2021, it is based on a project that was the subject of a book Planet City published by Idea Books in 2020 and an accompanying film.

A Land Suitability Analysis for Post-Disaster Housing Relocation: An Application in Fair Bluff, North Carolina after Hurricane Matthew
Creators: name: Kamrath, Christian
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: After major floods in the U.S., homeowners who are eligible will often take money through federal government programs (and others) to have their home demolished, the property permanently kept undeveloped as open space, and the opportunity to relocate to a more desirable area, thus reducing future flood damages (a form of ‘hazard mitigation’). When more than just a few households leave a neighborhood or dozens to hundreds leave a municipality, a number of challenges and issues can arise (i.e., property tax and utility revenue loss, disconnected communities, a “checkerboard effect” of vacant and occupied properties, etc.). Major floods or disasters introduce an urgent and critical need to find safe, permanent locations for families to move to after the temporary shelters or housing assistance expire. Projected areas of future growth or development guided through comprehensive planning efforts often fails to take into account the risk associated with known hazardous areas. After a disaster, a geographic information systems (GIS)-based land suitability analysis (LSA), like the one used for this project, can be used to identify and prioritize the most appropriate areas for development or redevelopment outside of hazardous areas that are also within the community and close to existing infrastructure. Here, I describe the methods and results of an LSA that was conducted as part of a Relocation Strategy for the Town of Fair Bluff, North Carolina, a community being assisted by the Hurricane Matthew Disaster Recovery and Resilience Initiative (HMDRRI). The LSA identifies over 100 properties in Fair bluff with the ‘highest’ suitability for development and redevelopment that would alleviate some of the negative effects described above and meet larger recovery planning goals. Along with continual improvements, the LSA’s flexibility makes it a powerful tool for climate adaptation planning and in mitigating any natural hazard that can be geospatially defined (i.e., floods, wildfires, sea-level-rise, volcanic eruptions, etc.) during or before the disaster recovery process.
The Architectural Logic of Climate Catastrophe
Creators: name: Clear, Nic
Publisher: name: AIS - Architecture Image Studies
Year: 2022

description: This paper attempts to explore the relationship between climate catastrophe and the globalised economy of late-capitalism and the implication that the architectural profession has been complicit with the environmental failures of this system. The essay identifies a number of key authors who argue that late-capitalism is not only a significant factor in climate catastrophe but is also responsible for a fatalistic position of ‘no alternative’ which have weakened effective opposition and the creation of other possible futures. It is suggested that many of these critical positions fail to convince as they cannot effectively communicate what an alternative future might look like, and suggests that architects, using speculative techniques familiar to Science Fiction, could be uniquely situated to try and represent what these forms of otherness might be and authors can map out future possibilities. But, if this is to happen it requires a rethinking of what architecture is and what architects do and how architectural education needs to change to facilitate these transformations

description: Recent computational studies have reported evidence of a metastable liquid-liquid phase transition (LLPT) in molecular models of water under deeply supercooled conditions. A competing hypothesis suggests, however, that non-equilibrium artifacts associated with coarsening of the stable crystal phase have been mistaken for an LLPT in these models. Such artifacts are posited to arise due to a separation of time scales in which density fluctuations in the supercooled liquid relax orders of magnitude faster than those associated with bond-orientational order. Here, we use molecular simulation to investigate the relaxation of density and bond-orientational fluctuations in three molecular models of water (ST2, TIP5P and TIP4P/2005) in the vicinity of their reported LLPT. For each model, we find that density is the slowly relaxing variable under such conditions. We also observe similar behavior in the coarse-grained mW model of water. Our findings therefore challenge the key physical assumption underlying the competing hypothesis.e find that density relaxes significantly faster than bond-orientational order, as incorrectly predicted by this competing hypothesis.

Riding Out the Green Wave of Gentrification in Atlanta
Creators: name: Jones, Ansley

description: Across the country, cities compete through livability initiatives, such as projects that improve the walkability, affordability, and other public health conditions in communities. One widespread strategy has been the construction of greenways as a means of converting urban liabilities into assets.  These ‘glorified sidewalks,’ as coined by The New York Times writer Richard Fausset, have had a transformative effect in many major cities, such as the High Line in New York, the 606 in Chicago, and the Beltline in Atlanta.  These examples are famous for spurring rapid private development and creating connected public spaces in places that were once underutilized. Though these projects have led to many positive outcomes, they are also notorious for stimulating gentrification and displacing long-standing populations in their vicinities. Other studies have empirically shown that gentrification is occurring in Atlanta due to the Beltline, so this research project is geared toward understanding the underlying policy choices that led to this situation, as well as the recent work of policymakers to bring about more equitable development. Qualitative methods, including review of archival sources and interviews of stakeholders in the Atlanta development community, are used to evaluate the planning and implementation of the Atlanta Beltline. Case studies of comparable cities are also presented in order to provide a basis for recommendations, which are focused on tenant protections, affordable housing development and preservation, and equity planning. Although many gaps are found in the Atlanta Beltline planning and implementation process, this study concludes that the Atlanta Beltline has unleashed a wave of activism which has effectively brought affordability to the forefront of the conversation between both public and private leaders in Atlanta.

The Application Of Innovative Parking Solutions In Downtown Chapel Hill
Creators: name: Grover, Brian

description: Parking management strategies are increasingly crucial to maintaining efficient transportation networks, especially in downtown areas where adding new parking facilities is rarely an option. This study examines the ability of two such strategies to increase the efficiency of parking facility utilization in downtown Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Performance-based pricing has been touted as the premiere solution to inadequate parking supply, charging users market-determined prices to maintain desirable occupancy rates. Additionally, shared parking has been found to significantly increase parking efficiency by encouraging joint-use parking facilities shared by diverse users. Analysis results indicate that each of these strategies is in fact positively associated with increased parking efficiency. Performance-based pricing results in the utilization of 126 additional parking spaces in downtown Chapel Hill, while shared parking serves to further increase efficiency by allowing nearby uses to combine their parking needs. The results suggest that prior to implementing a pricing program, goals must be set to determine whether the most urgent need is increased occupancy within existing facilities or increased parking revenue. Furthermore, shared parking requires cooperation among local businesses and property owners, and because the extent of this cooperation is yet to be known, the degree to which the strategy achieves increased efficiency will ultimately be determined by those who take part in it. The analysis is the next logical step to creating a more sophisticated parking management program in Chapel Hill, and it sets the stage for future implementation.
A User Guide to Online Engagement Tools

description: Community engagement affords community members the opportunity to weigh-in on planning projects that may impact their well-being. While typical engagement activities include transparent reporting and town hall meetings, there has been a shift in how governments, developers, and planners engage with the public to encourage participation. Although community meetings and face-to-face interaction are valuable, it is often difficult to get citizens to engage due to time constraints, lack of accessibility, and pessimism about their ability to make a difference. Therefore, the push to make data more accessible has led many cities to using technology to increase participation in the process and aide in collaborative decision-making. Existing research in the planning field is narrowly focused on why planners should utilize such digital tools rather than how to use them successfully, however further research matching the why with the how is necessary so planners can understand how to improve their processes with these tools. This research paper critiqued typical community engagement efforts, explored the current field of community engagement technology, and analyzed three online engagement technology case studies to analyze best practices for using digital tools developed for community engagement. This research supports that due to the breadth of online tools they must not be used in ‘a one size fits all’ approach when applied to community engagement processes. Best practices suggest that tools must also be well balanced between options of customizations and standardization to make user set-up intuitive yet supportive, provide meaningful engagement opportunities, and be designed to limit barriers to participation. This research has aided the creation of a user guide aimed at making planners aware of 23 existing tools and how to select the best ones for their engagement process by assessing each tool by categories such as use or purpose, engagement opportunities, appearance, and user set-up.

Architecture, Science Fiction and Re-imagining an Alternative Future

description: This introductory essay argues that we are in a period of great change initiated by the intersection of three great challenges: climate catastrophe, technological convergence and the need for social justice. The response to the current Covid pandemic suggests that we are poorly prepared to face such transformations and may struggle to find appropriate solutions in the face of fear and resistance to the unknown. A central role for the arts in setting a progressive agenda will be in the communication of alternatives and perhaps by turning to forms of speculative fiction, such as SF, we will able to embody possible solutions into more tangible forms and encourage greater acceptance of the radical decisions that society undoubtedly needs to make.

Suitability study for a bicycle sharing program in Sacramento, California
Creators: name: Maurer, Lindsay Kathryn
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: This report presents the findings of a study of local conditions in Sacramento and how they might support a bicycle sharing program in the near future. While past studies have had to rely on observations from European systems, this project makes use of recently-released data from the "Nice Ride" program in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Through the evaluation of actual experiences from this program, the factors that influence bike-share ridership in a U.S. city can be more fully understood and used to accomplish the following objectives: Identify the most suitable locations for a bicycle sharing program in Sacramento. Recommend a program service area based on these findings. Estimate the number of bike-share rentals that can be expected within this service area. Through these tasks, this study offers a thorough understanding of how a bicycle sharing program might look and operate within the Sacramento context. The results of this analysis, as summarized in the sections that follow, will allow local planners and officials to make well-informed decisions as they consider investing in a bicycle sharing program to enhance the sustainability and quality of life of their city.
