Pag-unlad na Nakatuon sa Transit
Pag-unlad na Nakatuon sa Transit
Ang Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) ay isang urban planning approach na nagpo-promote ng paggamit ng pampublikong sasakyan, nagpapahusay sa walkability at accessibility, at nagpapaunlad ng pinaghalong residential, commercial, at recreational space sa loob ng transit-friendly environment habang binabawasan ang pag-asa sa mga single-occupancy na sasakyan. Noong 2001, pinagtibay ng Lungsod ng San Antonio ang Unified Development Code na kinabibilangan ng "TOD" Zoning District. Ang layunin ng TOD ng San Antonio ay lumikha ng masigla, matitirahan na mga komunidad kung saan ang mga residente ay maaaring manirahan, magtrabaho, at maglaro nang malapit sa VIA transit station at mga hub ng transportasyon.
TRANSIT-ORIENTED POLICY FRAMEWORK
Ang Lungsod ay bumubuo ng isang TOD Policy Framework na kinabibilangan ng:
- Mga rekomendasyon para sa mga komunidad na nakatuon sa transit
- Isulong ang pagkakaroon at pagiging abot-kaya ng pabahay sa kahabaan ng mga transit corridors na pantay-pantay
- Pasiglahin ang paglago ng ekonomiya
Dalawang pagsisikap ang kasama sa inisyatiba na ito: Ang TOD Task Force ay susuriin ang "TOD" Zoning ordinance at magrerekomenda ng mga susog para sa input at konsiderasyon. Ang Technical Working Group sa ilalim ng Subcommittee na Pag-aalis ng mga Harang sa Abot-kayang Pagpapaunlad at Pagpapanatili ng Pabahay ay susuriin ang mga code at patakaran ng Lungsod upang matiyak ang pagkakahanay sa pagitan ng pabahay at transit.

May 2020
The voters of San Antonio gave their approval for dedicated funding for transit projects and improvements, with a particular focus on the innovative Advanced Rapid Transit network. The TOD initiative has goals that will encompass, but are not limited to, the following aspects:
“Transit oriented development can have a positive impact on our city's residents if done properly,” Councilman Whyte stated. “Since it has already been decided that we are going to spend money on these new ART lines, it is crucial to have a plan in place to maximize our investment and inform our community as to how their tax dollars are being utilized and the services that will be delivered."
October 2023
In a joint effort, Councilman Whyte and two colleagues submitted a Council Consideration Request (CCR) asking for the formation of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) plan in connection with the VIA Advanced Rapid Transit (ART) North/South and East/West lines.
