SFRTA, SFRPC, and TCRPC applied for and received FTA funding for a new South Florida Regional Transit Oriented Development (SFTOD) Pilot Program. The SFTOD pilot program will fund TOD planning activities around potential Tri-Rail Coastal Link station areas and build on the Seven50 "Region in Motion" visioning effort.

In April 2017, TCRPC approved the expenditure of $860,000 to fund TOD planning activities for seven local governments: 1) City of Miami TOD Zoning Overlay Typology (Model Typology Utilizing Three Station Areas within City) 2) City of Palm Beach Gardens Station Area Master Planning (New Plan) 3) City of Hollywood Station Area Master Plan (Full Charrette) 4) City of Aventura Station Area Master Plan (New Plan) 5) City of North Miami Beach Station Area Master Plan (New Plan) 6) City of Oakland Park TOD Zoning Overlay (One Station Area) 7) City of Delray Beach Station Area Master Plan (Full Charrette)

TCRPC Staff Report Recommending Approval of SFTOD Pilot Program Grant Awards, April 2017

In addition to the TOD planning activities, the remaining FTA funds are anticipated to be used for an affordable housing study; station area bicycle and pedestrian planning; corridor wide water and wastewater analysis; and a regional Transportation-Oriented Development fund business plan.  To ensure active engagement of relevant stakeholders, there will also be an outreach, community engagement, and equity plan.
