Transportation planning is the process of defining future policies, goals, investments, and designs to prepare for future needs to move people and goods to destinations. As practiced today, it is a collaborative process that incorporates the input of many stakeholders including various government agencies, the public and private businesses. Transportation planners apply a multi-modal and/or comprehensive approach to analyzing the wide range of alternatives and impacts on the transportation system to influence beneficial outcomes.

The City of Tarpon Springs seeks to revitalize its downtown core areas and encourage redevelopment for a vibrant, thriving, destination with a wide range of travel options. The principal ways proving access to the City's urban neighborhoods are constrained and cannot be widened to meet existing or future demand generated by redevelopment. In addition, existing future land use and zoning regulations are out of touch with the area's traditional urban form.

Additionally, this mission will also promote the utilization of technological innovations and familiarize people with e-management as the core of infrastructure. These ‘Smart’ Solutions will in turn drive economic growth.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

development strategy:
• Governor’s Inter-Agency Task
Force

25. One Region Funders GroupEquitable TOD
• Partnership of Funders and Non-profits
• TOD Toolkit
• Analysis of community readiness
• Do land use regulations in Connecticut
support transit-oriented development?
• Are there common regulatory barriers?

26. Does your town support TOD?
• Plan of Conservation and Development
• What does your Plan of Conservation and Development say about
your station area?
• How old is the plan? How well does it reflect community values?
• Zoning
• What would as-of-right development look like in your station
area?
• How could a change to regulations encourage investment?
• Next Steps

29. Vision: Define relationships of
transit & land use to each other
• More than ½ of
stations are center of
TOD-type community
visions
• Other stations
recognize need for
additional planning

31. Land Use: Maximize ridership
& activity with mix of uses
• Most stations with
visions in place have
zones which allow a
mix of uses
• Others have multiple
zones near
station, contributing
to overall
neighborhood mix

32. Density: Encourage proximity
of uses & economic feasibility
• Assess different
densities for different
places
• Suburbs:
• >10 units/acre, 3 stories, 1.5 FAR
• Cities:
• >20 units/acre, 4 stories, 2.5 FAR
• There’s no magic number
• “Moderate” density may
be insufficient for
development feasibility

• Shared across time of

• Payment-in-lieu

35. Community ProfileDarien
• POCD: supports “parkonce” commercial district
“[Darien] should continue to have higher
density housing located near
transportation facilities such as train
stations, and within walking distance to
local shopping.”
• Zoning: 2-story
commercial, parking, singlefamily homes
• Parking: 2-2.5 spaces per
unit, potential reductions for
shared
35
36. Community ProfileBethel
• Vision: Rezone station area
for moderate density mixeduse, complete sidewalk
network
“Landscaped sidewalks connecting the
mixed use development with the train
station and downtown should include
benches, water fountains, and other
pedestrian amenities.”- Bethel POCD
• Zoning: mixed-use up to 10
units/acre, more possible
w/village district overlay
• Parking: standard, with
shared & TOD reductions
possible
36
37. Community ProfileBridgeport
• POCD: pedestrian-friendly
and transit-oriented
“The competitive edge for a Downtown
is the ability to create a pedestrian
environment where people walk instead
of drive from one place to another.”
• Zoning: Downtown
village, up to 20 stories
• Parking: Low minimums of
0.5/unit + 10% with ability to
reduce further with shared
parking, carsharing, unbundled, employe
e cash-outs…

Surrounding zones allow lower-density mixeduse/multifamily.

Editor's Notes
42 station areas
Hand out chart
Most suburbandevelopmetns require at least 2 spaces per unit- $100,000 of structured parking. Methods for reduciung- shared, transit, car-share, unbundled parking, etc.Parking ratios of 2-3 spaces per unit can doom TOD construction
