transportation- related land use projects will enable cities and developers to expand options available in the market. It will promote well designed urban development areas using “complete streets” with interconnected local street networks. The program will fund capital and planning projects. Establishing a funding mechanism such as the CLC program will help implementing variety of transportation-related land use projects. Once the program is in place, federal formula funding, with the corresponding local share could be used for planning and capital projects such as streetscape improvements, transit center links, pedestrian linkages, station area plans including high speed station area, access management, a model TOD ordinance, redevelopment of urban centers to support transit facilities, and transit corridor plans. Work Elements and Products: NIRPC will establish, research, and develop the program guidelines, criteria, projects eligibility, evaluation procedures, and funding mechanism that will support the following category: Planning (Pre-Development Plan) category will assist cities with activities such as urban design, detailed redevelopment designs and economic feasibility analysis to prepare projects to compete for grants in the Capital project category. End Products: A new funding program linking transportation investments with land use decisions called CLC will be established and managed by NIRPC.
