Establishes "Enhanced Transit Village Program" to be administered by Office of Planning Advocacy in Department of State and DOT; appropriates $25 million.
This bill establishes the "Enhanced Transit Village Program" to support municipalities in developing walkable, mixed-use communities centered around public transit hubs. It targets distressed municipalities (score 50+ on revitalization index) already designated as "transit villages" by the Department of Transportation. Key provisions include requiring 50+ housing units per acre within 1/4 mile of transit and 25+ units per acre beyond that, alongside technical assistance for zoning changes, infrastructure upgrades, and promoting pedestrian/bike access. The program, administered by the Office of Planning Advocacy (Department of State) and DOT, is funded with $25 million in state appropriations.
