A series of redevelopment concepts with a fully controlled cell and partially controlled cell, a fully controlled cell only or a partially controlled cell only were considered. Costs vary from $159,000 to $853,700 depending on the approach taken. Duck production varies accordingly, with the cost per duck ranging from $5.69 to $31.35 depending on the approach chose and the project lifespan.
