The SR 7 community visioning charrettes, from 2003 to 2005 as part of the SR 7 Collaborative effort, identified implementation issues that included the need for new land use category. The Collaborative worked with the Broward County Planning Council to create the Transit Oriented Corridor, which was adopted in 2005 to accommodate “The People’s Plan.” It allowed each corridor community to amend its Future Land Use Plan to conform to its vision. The County also waived the $7,200 amendment application fees, resulting in a combined savings of $100,800. - Information from SFRPC's ""10 Years Down The Road"" 2011 report on the State Road 7 Collaborative.

Several cities have adopted the TOC future land use designation, which can be found on the Broward County Planning Council's website at Link. Cities that have adopted the TOC FLU designation include Margate, Pompano Beach, Lauderhill, Davie, Hollywood, and Miramar.
Margate is an example of a city that not only adopted the TOC FLU designation, but also updated its land development code regulations at the same time.
