18 TOD in the context of Livable Communities 1. Provide more transportation choices. Develop safe, reliable and economical transportation choices to decrease household transportation costs, reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign oil, improve air quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote public health. 5. Coordinate policies and leverage investment. Align federal policies and funding to remove barriers to collaboration, leverage funding and increase the accountability and effectiveness of all levels of government to plan for future growth, including making smart energy choices such as locally generated renewable energy. TOD is complementary to the Livable Communities Principles defined by the Federal interagency Partnership between HUD, DOT and EPA for Sustainable Communities established in 2009. The Livable Communities Principles are consistent with principles and best practices for transit oriented development, emphasizing the creation of both housing and employment centers that are efficiently located and accessible by transit. The principles also specifically call out walkable transit oriented development in existing communities as sustainable and desirable development pattern for future growth. The core principles are: 2. Promote equitable, affordable housing. Expand location- and energy-efficient housing choices for people of all ages, incomes, races and ethnicities to increase mobility and lower the combined cost of housing and transportation. 3. Enhance economic competitiveness. Improve economic competitiveness through reliable and timely access to employment centers, educational opportunities, services and other basic needs by workers as well as expanded business access to markets. 4. Support existing communities. Target federal funding toward existing communities – through such strategies as transit-oriented, mixed-use development and land recycling – to increase community revitalization, improve the efficiency of public works investments, and safeguard rural landscapes. 6. Value communities and neighborhoods. Enhance the unique characteristics of all communities by investing in healthy, safe and walkable neighborhoods – rural, urban or suburban. In developing TOD and TRID recommendations for East Liberty the Living Communities Principles served as a guide for developing infrastructure and development recommendations.

Station Case Study: Del Mar Station - Pasadena, California Del Mar Station is an example of excellent integration of new mixed use development with an LRT station reconstruction project. The project includes 347 apartments and 20,000 Sf of retail around an at grade light rail station situated in the middle of the block. Mid-rise apartment buildings organized around the edges of the block form a series of public plazas which lead to the station platforms. A key attribute of the project is the quality of the pedestrian spaces that lead to and include the station. Buildings are oriented to both the street and the mid-block pedestrian realm. Public art and high quality landscape treatments are used to connect the station to the larger public realm. below right: Google Aerial of Del Mar Station below: Images of Del Mar Station - Rosenfeld, Daniel Urban Partners with design by Moule & Polyzoides Architects and Urbanists 19
