The City adopted design standards and mobility/accessibility requirments for Planned Mobility Developments (PMDs) into Section 28-1850 of the land development regulations. All developments within Planned Mobility districts are required to either implement and maintain a shuttle service operating between the PMD and the Tri-Rail station, or pay an annual fee to the City in lieu thereof. The land development regulations for the Planned Mobility districts specify density and intensity and include design elements such as: buffered sidewalks, covered walkways, pedestrian scale lighting, height requirements, parking requirements, and open space requirements

The City designated areas around Yamato Road as Planned Mobility Areas and is working to increase residential uses into the area. The City has approved five Planned Mobility Developments in this area as of October 2016.
The City is developing additional land development regulations that will address the area around the planned Boca II Tri-Rail Station.
