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 2050 (CIM 2050), 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 2050 goals.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Infrastructure
An individual's trip is the entire journey from beginning to end. In many cases, a trip may combine a
number of modes. While motorized vehicles will provide longer trips, users complete the first and last
portion on their own. For example, almost every vehicle trip includes a walk or bike trip to the parking lot
or transit stop. Good street connectivity increase the number of travel options and reduces the distances
traveled to reach destinations. One way to measure route directness is take the ratio of the route distance
to the straight line-distance. The closer the ratio is to 1, the better for connectivity of the area.
Some steps that can be taken to improve walk/bike infrastructure include:

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:
