 Feasibility report
 Good land
 What can go on the land
 Likelyhood of success
Steps

Set Geography or search boundaries

Set Site Criteria

Site Selection

Site analysis

Recommendation
Site/Location
Criteria
 Familiar :
o Clear Lake Area and Vicinity
of San Jacinto
 Open Lot
o No Demo
o More flexibility
 High Traffic, near major point of
interest
o NASA, San Jacinto College,
Major Road
 Around/above 1-acre
Site Analysis:
The road to determining a good site
location for our feasibility report was a long
one. We had to incorporate many levels of
criteria including:
 Property Size
 Property Value
 Potential Utility Conflicts:
o Oil and gas pipelines
 Floodplain
 Existing foundations, structures
o Demolitions cost
Site Selection

Sites that have met Criteria:

 14150 Beamer Rd (Beamer Location)
 1101 Bay Area Blvd, Houston (Bay Area Location)
 212 ibis St webster TX. (NASA Location)
Bay Area Site

Site Criteria:

NASA Site
NASA Site Pipeline conflicts

Multiple, 12+, pipelines on the

southwest portion of the property.
Beamer location Pipeline conflicts
No Pipelines on
the property.
Bay Area Blvd Site Pipeline conflicts
No Pipelines on
the property.
Floodplain
Floodplain data

 Two of our site locations are in danger of

being in the way of a 100 year floodplain.
 Beamer Site
 NASA site
Narrowing down

Considering criteria:
 Size
 Utilities conflict
 Floodplain data
 Value
 Amount of other storage facilities near site
Final recommendations

I would recommend the Beamer site for a commercial

building/storage facility due to:
 Reasonable size
 Reasonable price
 No utilities conflicts
 Near college and multiple neighborhoods
 On major road
