To leverage this investment, Seattle has focused on developing planning policies to set the stage for transit-oriented development (TOD) across the city. However, the City’s approach to TOD supportive investments has been more reactive and targeted to market feasible areas rather than proactive and coordinated. WHY FOCUS CITY STRATEGY ON TOD? How can the City play a meaningful TOD near stations can create important community, environmental, and role in making TOD happen in a economic benefits by providing new job and housing opportunities; efficient equitable way? land use; and lower energy consumption, particularly in underserved areas. City decisions around zoning changes and public investments in neighborhoods have direct affects on private development decisions that can revitalize neighborhoods.

  • Sound Transit TOD Quarterly Report
    Quarter 2, 2020 TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT Quarterly Status Report Cedar Crossing project at the future Roosevelt Station, which began construction in May 2020. Overview RCW 81.112.350 requires Sound Transit to provide quarterly updates on implementation of a regional equitable transit oriented development (TOD) strategy. The TOD program is empowered by the voter‐ approved plan to create diverse, vibrant and mixed‐income communities around transit. To achieve these outcomes, Sound Transit offers its surplus properties—those acquired for building and operating the transit system but no longer provide a transit use to the agency—as development opportunities for affordable housing or other developments benefiting the public. TABLE OF CONTENTS Highlights TOD program development TOD program implementation Transfers of Surplus Property Looking Ahead TOD Quarterly Status Report | Page 1 SOUND TRANSIT’S OFFICE OF LAND USE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT | TOD Highlights Construction began on the Cedar Crossing project at Roosevelt Station. Cedar Crossing groundbreaking The TOD project at Roosevelt, Cedar Crossing, broke ground the week of May 11, 2020. The joint venture of Bellwether Housing and Mercy Housing NW is developing the 254-unit affordable housing building that is slated for completion in 2022. The project includes innovative community partnerships with Mary’s Place, Seattle Children’s, and El Centro de la Raza. The project is adjacent to the Roosevelt light rail station, which is set to open in 2021. Sound Transit and the Seattle Office of Housing partnered to offer the property at a discounted land price and committed $15 million in City funds to the project. Final RFP for the Operations Maintenance Facility East (OMF East) TOD The final submittals deadline of the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the OMF East TOD site closed on June 25.

  • Upzoning and Value Capture How U.S. Local Governments Use Land
    Land Use Policy 95 (2020) 104624 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Land Use Policy journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/landusepol Upzoning and value capture: How U.S. local governments use land use T regulation power to create and capture value from real estate developments Minjee Kim Land Use Planning and Real Estate Development, Florida State University, 336 Bellamy Building, 113 Collegiate Loop, P.O. Box 3062280, Tallahassee, FL, 32306, United States ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: The public sector can harness its authority to control land uses to secure valuable public benefits from real Value capture estate developments. This paper investigates how five major U.S. cities—Boston, Chicago, New York, San Upzoning Francisco, and Seattle—are using their land use regulation powers to create and capture value for the public Zoning negotiations benefit. An analysis of the zoning and entitlement processes of the 20 largest real estate development projects Land use exactions in each city reveals that value has been captured from all 100 projects. Furthermore, these cities implicitly Real estate development differentiated value capture into two distinct components: value creation and value capture. Among the100 projects, cities created value for 90 projects by allowing greater density and height—a practice often referred to as “upzoning.” Distinguishing such upzoning incidences from traditional land use exaction tools is im- portant because the added value gives local governments greater legitimacy in asking for public benefits. The experience of the five cities further revealed that value capture strategies can be customized to adapt tounique regulatory, political, and cultural contexts. Lastly, despite the fact that the majority of the upzoned projects increased density and height through project-specific negotiations, none of the cities had clear standards or evaluation frameworks for determining: how much value was created, what can be asked for in return, and who should benefit from the value captured.
