The Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS) is the metropolitan planning organization
(MPO) for Ada and Canyon Counties. COMPASS has developed this review as a tool for local governments to
evaluate whether land developments are consistent with the goals of Communities in Motion 2040 2.0 (CIM 2040),
the regional long-range transportation plan for Ada and Canyon Counties. This checklist is not intended to be
prescriptive, but rather a guidance document based on CIM 2040 2.0 goals.

New households: 64 New jobs: 0 Exceeds CIM forecast: No
CIM Corridor: Black Cat Road ' Level of Stress considers facility type, number of vehicle
Pedestrian level of stress: R lanes, and speed. Roads with G or PG ratings better
= Bicycle level of stress: R support bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and comfort
levels.
'• Housing within 1 mile: 1,540 A good jobs/housing balance - a ratio between 1 and
■ Jobs within 1 mile: 500 1.5 - reduces traffic congestion. Higher numbers
'�' • Jobs/Housing Ratio: 0.3 indicate the need for more housing and lower numbers
I indicate an employment need.
Nearest police station: >4 miles Developments within 1.5 miles of police and fire
Nearest fire station: 2.7 miles stations ensure that emergency services are more
efficient and reduce the cost of these important public
services.
Farmland consumed: No Farmland contributes to the local economy, creates
Farmland within 1 mile: 438 additional jobs, and provides food security to the region.

Recommendations
The proposal is on the fringe of urban development in an area removed from employment centers and existing
public transportation. The closest transit services are located more than three miles away and there are no plans
for service to this area.

Fiscal Impact Analysis Supplemental for the
Development Review Checklist
The purpose of the fiscal impact analysis is to better estimate expected revenues and costs to local
governments as a result of new development so that the public, stakeholders, and the decision-
makers can better manage growth. Capital and operating expenditures are determined by various
factors that determine service and infrastructure needs, including persons per household, student
generation rates, lot sizes, street frontages, vehicle trip and trip adjustment factors, average trip
lengths, construction values, income, discretionary spending, and employment densities.
The COMPASS Development Checklist considers the level of fiscal benefits, how many public agencies
benefit or are burdened by additional growth, and how long the proposal will take to achieve a fiscal
break-even point, if at all. More information about the COMPASS Fiscal Impact Tool is available at:
