TOD Summit 2010 Technical Assistance Panels

ULI Los Angeles is providing technical assistance panels (TAPs) for key transit stops in Los Angeles County. These TAPs will be showcased at the TOD Summit on Friday, June 4, 2010.

Public agencies, private firms, and nonprofit organizations facing complex land use and real estate issues in the greater Los Angeles region can get expert and objective advice with the help of Technical Advisory Panels (TAPs) offered by the ULI Los Angeles District Council. TAPs are a one-day session in which Los Angeles District Council members provide expertise on a specific land use issue that applicants may not be able to obtain through any other means. A TAP can save immeasurable research, time and costs, and can provide a variety of services including, but not limited to:

Evaluating specific development and land proposals or issues
Assessing overall development strategy and business planning for public agencies
Developing criteria for evaluating development proposals
Evaluating growth issues including economics and management
Analyzing reuse potentials of existing properties
Identifying key economic and land use issues relating to public/private land use situations

The program includes a competitive process where applicants submit TOD project proposals to a Panel Review Committee. Four TOD proposals have been selected and ULI LA will conduct Technical Assistance Panels (TAPs) on each site.
