Transit Oriented Communities

You are here: Home / CM Tooltip Glossary / Transit Oriented Communities

December 24, 2018 //  by Steve Rogers

A program that went into effect in 2017, offering developers various incentives or “bonuses” for new residential or mixed-use buildings located near public transit (bus stop, light rail station etc.). In order to qualify, the project must include a certain percentage of affordable apartments and must pay construction workers at Union rates.  Available bonuses – which include additional building height/stories, increased floor area ratio, reduced parking minimums and reduced setbacks – are organized in tiers according to how close the project site is to transit; Tier 1 offers the lowest bonuses, Tier 4 the greatest.
