Lessons Learned NCTCOG needs to provide: A better definition of project types that reduce vehicle miles traveled early in the process. More education on federal requirements regarding funding, air quality conformity steps, and the TxDOT process. Earlier in the process: City council endorsement of the development partner and prioritization of individual projects is needed. Local zoning/development regulations allowing Development Excellence designs need to be set. Local government funds need to be available. Need more coordination between NCTCOG, local government, and developer on the specific capital investment strategy.

Land Banking Concept Development Land Banking Options 1. NCTCOG provides funds to third party to bank land* 2. NCTCOG builds transportation infrastructure if city acquires the land and commits to sustainable development projects 3. NCTCOG provides infrastructure to remove land from the bank 4. NCTCOG acquires targeted land* * Option would allow the creation of a revolving account DRAFT
