Specifications include, but are not limited to: OCTA is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms with substantial transit oriented development (TOD) experience to develop a site visioning feasibility study at the FPNR lot. This study will establish a comprehensive and effective program of alternative transit and mobility improvements to address first and last mile mobility and local circulation needs. Additionally, this study will potentially improve the overall transit operation at the facility. OCTA completed an initial joint development study at the FPNR lot that reviewed local market conditions, considered OCTA’s goals, and analyzed financial feasibility of potential development scenarios. OCTA is interested in constructing a mixed-use development (retail, restaurant, offices, and affordable housing) within the FPNR lot (Project). Recommendations and preferred design plans will be developed, consistent with OCTA established policies, and proposed for consideration by the OCTA Board of Directors. Through an 20-month contract for advancing joint development opportunities that include: • Consideration of best practices and lessons learned from other transit agencies • Development of conceptual design drawings for the Project site • Carrying out of outreach activities to collect feedback from the local businesses and community This Project will enhance the sense of community and place, in coordination with surrounding land uses and development plans, while also supporting opportunities to increase transit ridership and OCTA revenues through value capture strategies. The final operating model and design must be financially feasible, allow for cost-effective maintenance and operations, and consider public safety. Project Tasks
