  • Uses and Abuses of Value Capture for Transit
    Uses and Abuses of Value Capture for Transit 7iili Eric Kober February 2018 for transportation policy & management Introduction With the New York State Fiscal Year 2019 Executive Budget proposal to include a “value capture” mechanism for financing transit, an obscure and highly technical subject suddenly has generated considerable attention. This report explores the purpose of, and issues created by value capture generally, and by the current proposal. What is “value capture?” What are its uses? Has it ever been used successfully before in New York City? Much of the favorable attention transit experts give to value capture stems from the Hong Kong model. In Hong Kong, the rail operator, MTR, builds rail lines financed through the profits from development above stations and depots along the route.1 Hong Kong has unique characteristics that facilitate this model, particularly its high density and scarcity of developable land, which make the rail right-of-way development particularly profitable. New York City used a similar strategy to finance the extension of the #7 subway to Hudson Yards in Manhattan. While value capture has in the past successfully provided new revenue for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s capital projects, the current proposal does not build successfully on past achievements. Rather, it diverts New York City’s largest and most stable tax source in a manner that could affect the City’s fiscal stability and limit the productive ways that the City has used value capture to funnel funding generated by private real estate development to the MTA. 1 Lincoln Leong,“The ‘Rail plus Property’ model: Hong Kong’s successful self-financing formula,” https://www.

We are writing to urge you to end our state’s racist education funding system and give our children the funding they deserve. Specifically, we ask you to use your power as leaders to: ● Secure $10 million additional dollars for education across Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven, Waterbury, and New Britain in the current biennial budget; and ● In the next legislative session, pass antiracist legislation to close Connecticut’s racial funding gap by the time federal dollars run out. As leaders, you are called by God to “do right, seek justice, defend the oppressed” (Isaiah 1:17). But when you fund education based on property taxes, draw lines to keep Black and Brown people out of districts with the best resources, and spend $639 million more on majority white districts, we ask you: How far is Connecticut from whites-only drinking fountains and segregated lunch counters? This racial funding gap is immoral, unjust, and unacceptable.

  • Manhattan Office Market
    Manhattan Off ce Market 3 RD QUARTER 2016 REPORT A NEWS RECAP AND MARKET SNAPSHOT Pictured: 200 Park Avenue South Looking Ahead Tax Plan Proposal Could Potentially Help Leveraged RE Firms An emerging tax plan proposed by Republican candidate Donald Trump could reportedly benef t debt-laden real estate companies by coupling 2-policies — letting businesses deduct interest and allowing expensing, or immediate write-offs, for investments in equipment and buildings. The proposal would “provide negative tax rates for investments f nanced with debt, creating incentives for companies to pursue projects that wouldn’t make sense economically without the tax benef ts.” Currently tax law requires businesses to spread the deductions over multiple years, but under Trump’s proposed plan “a business would be able to generate signif cant losses in the f rst year of an investment and then generate ongoing interest deductions. Those losses could be carried forward and used to offset future income.” It is reportedly the intended goal of the tax plan, which is still a work-in-progress, to “tie expensing to job creation and new investment and not, for example, purchases of existing leveraged real estate portfolios,” according to reported comments by a Trump advisor. Interest Deductions: The pairing of an end to interest deductions and expensing is typically done to prevent giving an extra subsidy according to some sources, however it is anticipated that the taking away of interest deductibility would make it hard for businesses to capitalize; and with that in mind Trump had proposed an unspecif ed “reasonable cap” in an earlier proposed tax plan.
