Overview: Staff and consultants initiated the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) planning and Land Use Management Ordinance (LUMO) visioning initiative in February 2022. This effort assesses development and redevelopment potential in the future North-South Bus Rapid Transit (NSBRT) corridor, concentrating on Focus Areas identified in the Town's adopted Future Land Use Map (FLUM) with the highest potential for redevelopment over the next 20 years.

The consultant team will present conceptual TOD scenarios for each station area that incorporate a range of housing types; retail, services, and employment; high-quality public realm; enhanced bike and pedestrian connections; and transportation greenways.

The consultant team will introduce recommended implementation strategies that focus on land use and development regulations, affordable housing preservation and creation, economic development, and accessibility and mobility. Equity spans all these categories, and a diverse set of strategies includes programs, funding, policies, regulations, incentives, and partnerships. Once adopted, the TOD Strategy and Implementation Plan will be integrated into the LUMO update's approach and content.

Staff anticipates bringing the final TOD Strategy and Implementation Plan to Council in February 2023.


Recommendation(s):
That the Council receive the presentation and provide feedback.
