Transit Oriented Communities guidance: New Draft Sections Published for Comment

DOLA released Sections 1 and 2 of the TOC Guidance in October 2024, which provide an overview of the TOC law that is intended for a general audience. A new draft of Section 3 of the TOC Guidance published today supplements this by providing more detailed interpretive guidance intended to assist practitioners with implementation of the law. This interpretive guidance includes the factors with which DOLA will determine compliance with the law.

DOLA will publish a complete version of the TOC law guidance by February 28, 2025, which will compile the sections published to date, along with the user guides for technical tools, “form and manner” templates, and other appendices.

Please submit comments on this Section 3 draft by February 14, 2025. DOLA will strive to incorporate comments submitted by then, and may continue to update the TOC guidance over time as needed.
