Highest and Best Use Analysis Redevelopment site located at 5801 and 5809 Annapolis Road Cheverly, MD Prince Georges County Redevelopment Authority | February 2018 www.greendooradvisors.com Executive Summary Green Door Advisors (GDA) was retained by Prince George’s County Redevelopment Authority (Redevelopment Authority) to conduct a highest and best use market analysis for a proposed development at 5801 and 5809 Annapolis Road within the town limits of Cheverly, MD. The Redevelopment Authority previously issued an RFP for development of this site, and it was planned for the development of 244 luxury two-bedroom condominium units priced from $300,000 to $350,000, but the selected developer was unable to execute the development agreement. In 2013, GDA completed a residential market and financial analysis to help determine whether the original disposition agreement was viable given the residential market, it was determined that the original program was not financially feasible given market conditions. Now that the Redevelopment Authority is preparing to issue a new solicitation for redevelopment of the subject property, GDA has completed a follow-up study to determine the highest and best use for the site based upon current market conditions. This study examines the market opportunity for multiple potential product types including hotel, rental and for-sale housing, office, and retail development. The following table presents a summary of the market opportunity for each of the product types: Product Type Level of Opportunity Summary Hotel Strong • Opportunity for 95-115-room Limited Service Hotel by 2020/2021. • Subject site is established hotel location. Condominiums Low • No condominiums actively selling in the market area. -

Report by Finance and Capital Committee (B) 03-28-2019 Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Board Action/Information Summary MEAD Number: Resolution: Action Information 202068 Yes No TITLE: Adopt FY2020 Operating Budget and FY2020-2025 CIP PRESENTATION SUMMARY: Staff will review feedback received from the public and equity analysis on the FY2020 Proposed Budget and request approval of the Public Outreach and Input Report, FY2020 Operating Budget and FY2020-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). PURPOSE: The purpose of this item is to seek Board acceptance and approval of the Public Outreach and Input Report and Title VI equity analysis, and the FY2020 Operating Budget and FY2020-2025 CIP. DESCRIPTION: Budget Priorities: Keeping Metro Safe, Reliable and Affordable The budget is built upon the General Manager/CEO's Keeping Metro Safe, Reliable and Affordable (KMSRA) strategic plan. Metro is making major progress to achieve the goals of this plan by ramping up to average capital investment of $1.5 billion annually, establishing a dedicated capital trust fund exclusive to capital investment, and limiting jurisdictional annual capital funding growth to three percent. Metro continues to encourage the U.S. Congress to reauthorize the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act (PRIIA) beyond FY2020, which provides $150 million in annual federal funds matched by $150 million from the District of Columbia, State of Maryland, and Commonwealth of Virginia. In order to establish a sustainable operating model, Metro is limiting jurisdictional operating subsidy growth to three percent and deploying innovative competitive contracting. The items on the KMSRA agenda that remain to be completed include restructuring retirement benefits and creating a Rainy Day Fund.
