Policy Adoption
Exhibit A
RTD TOD Policy
The RT □ Board of Directors passed and adopted the followiny Transit Oriented
Developm ent Poli cy on the 18th rl,iy of April 2006 (amended Septe mber 16 , 20 08 and
Sep:ember 21, 2010) as the framework to support TOD pl anning and development at
ex isting and future stations througho ut th e district.
Definition of TOD
While TOD can have many physi cal forms , it generally in c ludes the following design
principles :
• More compact and dense development within a 5-to 10-minute walk around
transit fadlities compa red to existing development patterns in the same
area;
• A m ix of uses-either horizontal or vertical-usually including residential ,
reta il, and cffice employment;
• High-quality, pedestrian-oriented urban design and streetscapes .
By focusing compact development Ftround transit stations , TOD capitalizes on the value
of public infrastructure investments and promotes sustainability. These development
synergies promote increased transit ridership and an integrated station environr:it:!nl
with more passenger amenities. In addition lo increased ridership and more fl/lssenger
amen ities, TOD is also a successful tool for promoting local economic development,
helping cr.;nmunities plan for sustainable growth, and increasing the overall quality of
life in a reyion .
Basis for TOD Policy
TOD 's ability to increase transit usage while achieving valuable a~cillory benefits for the
re gion me.:ins tha t it plays a cr ucia l role in tulfilling RTD's organi z,itional mission: "To
meet our constituents' present and future public transit needs by offering safe , clean ,
rel iable, co urteous , acce ssit .. and cost-effective service throughout the district."
RTD's mission is to provide trans it service, and RTD recognizes that other publ ic
agenc ies and priv ate <Jeveluµer~ a re resµonsible for th e reg io n's built environm ent .
However , RTD bel ieves that in creFtsed coordination among public and private
organiz ations in promoting TOD through land use plann ing , zomr.g, and the
developm ent process will result in high er-quality, sustainable com mun itie s th at mee t lilt>
vary ing o bj ec tives of all parti cG.

1 . Provide more transportation choi..;es: Deve lo p sa fe . reli a ble a nd &co nonrca l

2. Promote equitable and affordable housing: Expand loca tion-a nd e11e1yy-
P.fficient housing cho ices for people of all ages , incomes , ra ces a n d ethnicities to
inc rea se mobility and lower th e combi ned cost of housing a nd tra nsporta ti on
3. Enhance economic competitiveness : Improve eco nomi c competitiveness

the efficiency of publi c works investments, and safeg uard rural lancJsc;apes .
5 . Coordinate and leverage federal policies and investments : Align federal
policies and funding to remove ba rri ern to co llah oration, leve rage funding and
increase the accountabi lity .:ind ettect ive ne ss of all levels of government to plan
fo r future growth , inGlucJing making smari ene rgy choices such as lo cally
generated renewable energy.
6 Value unique characteristics of communities, no matter their size : Enhance
the unique characteristics of all com mull'ties by inve sting in healthy, safe and
walkable neighborhoods -rural, urb an or suburbnn .
These federal livability principles pro vide a policy lram ework whrch he lps guide fed eral
funding dedsions . As su ch. they provide import an t insight as to what RTD's federa l
partners co nside r to be imp orta nt in fa shioning be tter integration among la nd use ,
transportation and the env irun11 1en1.
RTD has the powe r of emi ne nt domain, o r condemna ti on, to carry out the purp:ise s se t
forth in its enab ling act (C .R.S . 32-9-161 ). Pursua nt to its enabling ac t , RTD is
auth orized to operate a mass transporta ti o n syst em (C.R.S. 32-9 -1 07) Th ern fnre , RTD
may exe rci:,e the µower of em in ent domain as necessary fo r the o;:ioration of it s ma ss

TOD Vision
RTD 's visi on for TOD is to encourage compact, mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented. high-
qua lity development at and around transit stations co nsistent with fed er?' req uire~1ents,
regi onal goals , and co mmunity objectives-including sustainable growth-in parbership
with stakeholders while oµerating an attrc1ctive, comfortab le, and co 11venient transit
system for the residents of the district.
Since th ere is no one-size -fi ts-all approach to TOD , RTD has identified four key goals to
besl c1cl ,i e ve suc Gess :
1 . Promoting multi-sector, cross-jurisd ictior,al partnerships;
2. Enco uraging livable comm unities and sustainable deve lopment that support
the transit system;
3. Ensuring a hierarchy of multimodal access; and
4. Prote ct ing and enhancing RTD's transit assets .
2.5 Goals and Strategies
Goal 1: RTD will foster relationships with local jurisdictions, regional agencies,
private developers, local residents and businesses, and other stakeholders to
support transit station area planning and TOD implementation.
Strategies to achieve this goal include :
• Providing RTD staff expertise and resou rces to lo cal jurisd ictions for station area
planning and zoning
• Supporting efforts to encourage TOD by DRCOG , which include condur.ting
re search, sharing information, and providing planning assistance to connect
lram:it service expansion to economic and community devP.lopment that supports
sustainable growth consistent with th e DRCOG 1\/,etro Vi~ion Plan
• Working with trad e and advoca cy orga ni zations-such as lhe Urban Land
lnstitJle (ULI) -to promote TOD ed uca tion and best practices
Promoting and develop ing partn erships with private developers . publi c agenci es
and other stakeholders to adva nce TOD beyond pkmning lo implementation
Goal 2: RTD will encourage livable communities and sustainable developmellt
that support the transit system .
Strat egies to ach ieve th is goal inclt.~e:
• Co llabora ting with loca l jurisd ictions on stati o n area planning and TOD fo r areas
wit hin up lo a 10-minute wal k of stations
• Advoca ting for new d eve lopment which generally meets the following
cha rac te risti cs in support of federal liva bil ity principlas :
o It is denser th~n ex sting deve lopment patt e rns in th e surroun d i1g area

• Participating in jo int deve lopm ent µrujec ts which µrovide the opportunity to
preserve ridership, build or improve infrast~ucture to support transit, have local
jurisdiction support and embrace the principles of li vable communities
Goal 3: RTD supports multimodal access to the transit system by all users.
S t, ci tegies l o achi eve thi s goal include :
• Supporting il hioru rcl1y o f acce ss lo rapid tran si t which considers th e following
niodes in order of priority pedt,slri c111s, IJu s 1id e1s, bicyclists, vehicles (sho rt-t erm

• Conside ring ac~ess nee cs beyond Rl lJ property in the planning and design of

stations and minimize the need for single-occupancy vehicle trip s by trans it riders
outside of their trips to stations
• Optir.iizing RTD parking at stations by co nsidering : pro~imity to Downtown
Denver (less parking closer In), local feeder bus service (less parking with hig her
levels of ;ervice ), and pedestrian connectiv ity (less parking with good pedestrian
co nn ec· .ons)
Goal 4: Prof 1ct and enhance RTD's transit assets and investments .
Strategies tr achieve this goal include :
• Where appropriate, pursuing TOD as a m eans to increase the transit value of
RTD-owned land near stations
• Encouraging local jurisdictions to support TOD by :
o Utili zing best pract ices in TOD planning and implementatio n around transit
stations
o Encouraging station area planning early in the transit planning process,
consistent with the Fede ral Transit Administration's (FTA) New Starts
guidance for transit -supportive land uses
• Leve raging federal invesiment in the regiona l transit system, recogniz.ing that
th ere is significant c::impetition among regions thro ughout the country for federal
transit support, by:
o Ensuring consistency of local policy with the FT A's guidelineH for transit
joint develo1,,ment. which mandate a transit element, economic
development, new or enhanced inter-modal coordination, and non-
vehicular capi!al improvements resulting in increased tran sit usage
o Encouraging consistency of lo ca l policy with the Federal Partn ership for
!::'ustainable Communities which promotes access to affordable housing,
more transportatio n options, and lower transportation costs, while
prot ecting th e environment 111 communities natio nwide.
• Where ap;:iropriate consider transiti on ing surface park ir,g to stru ctured parking ,
