For RideKC Development Corporation to recommend a facilities project to the KCATA board, the project must meet strict TOD benchmarks, all which serve to make the best use of the region's current and future transportation system. Additionally, any developer who partners with KCATA on a project must make additional commitments to facilitating public transportation, such as rider and driver amenities, public/private parking options, and improved transit shelter accommodations.

Retains historic Scotford Building
Substantially increases density on unbuilt site
Adjoins streetcar expansion study to the East; transit technical assistance panel to the West
