The Town of Sandwich requested Cape Cod Commission assistance to evaluate development/redevelopment options within a study area that included the industrial park, the South Sandwich Village area, the town-owned properties in South Sandwich, and the YMCA property. Commission staff developed a scope of work for the RESET project, which began in Fiscal Year 2014. The Commission completed baseline research and a market analysis to determine existing and future demand for retail and office space. Scenarios of possible future land use patterns were presented, the first based on current zoning. The study included a fiscal impact analysis for each scenario to better predict taxes, levels of services, and types of taxpayers affected. The study also included an impact analysis for transportation, water and natural resources, and the regional economy, and a regulatory analysis.
