ABSTRACT
Depending on the scale of the development, there are multiple stages of review and construction that take place. This chapter discusses a generic process that reflects key considerations in site design and instruction, and provides examples of crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) concerns that should be addressed during each phase. Some communities require a preapplication meeting to discuss and review the expected land use before the design process begins. Discussions on the location, siting, and design of new or remodeled facilities can reduce the costs of retrofitting a design to address the desired CPTED principles. Schematic Design is the level of the design presents a list of the requirements regarding the intended uses of the property. Design Development is the level of design lists the sizes and shapes of buildings, parking, and other site features. Building structural features defined at this time include plumbing, lighting, and communications systems, and door and window types and locations.
