Instructions: 1. In line with the previous task performance, your task now is to create a feasibility study using the term paper from your preliminary task performance as your basis. For this section, you must create the following: • Tourism Development Plan – Describe your tourism idea in detail. Include the following: o How does your tourism idea blend in with the town? o What would attract a tourist to this town? o What does this town have or do not have that you can use to attract tourists? Note: Come up with something new/innovative. Be careful not to be too aggressive like building malls, hotels, and/or restaurants to support your idea because this would not be possible in five (5) years. • Infrastructure/Superstructure – Describe the additional infrastructure and/or superstructure that would be needed to accommodate tourists. Consider the following: o Are more hotels and restaurants needed? o How about shopping centers? o Are utilities available to support this venture? • Stakeholders – Create a plan on how to convince the townspeople that your idea is a benefit to them so you can be able to implement your idea. Answer the following: o How would you sell your idea to the townspeople? o How disruptive would your plan be to their everyday activities? (Traffic, congestion, crime, trash, etc.) • Financing The Project – Provide answers to the following: o How do you propose to fund this project? o Where will the money come from? o If you are planning to build a hotel, restaurant, etc., where will the money come from to build these facilities? o If you are trying to attract a chain, how will you convince them to invest money in your chosen town? o Are you going to raise taxes in the town to support your tourism idea? Note: Donations cannot be a prime source of funding. • Transportation – Describe how tourists will arrive at this destination. Consider the following: o Are current transportation systems adequate to accommodate tourists or will you need to develop them further? o If they need to be developed further, where will the money come from to develop what is needed? • Current Situation Analysis – use 05 Handout 2 for this. 2. You must create a PowerPoint presentation of your output to be presented in front of the class for a maximum of 10 minutes. 3. You must create a written output that includes the following: • First section of the feasibility study (finalized, checked, and graded) • Tourism Enhancement Plan • Infrastructure/Superstructure • Stakeholders • Financing The Project • Transportation 4.
