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 int4RdA
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. 7

Public Transportation Infrastructure
Providing safe and comfortable transit stops and appropriate amenities can make public transportation a
more convenient and competitive option, reduce the overall cost of housing + transportation, and expand
the potential customer base for businesses.
While stop location and spacing will depend on the circumstances of the route, there are some general
guidelines to improve the user experience:
Locate bus stop amenities in areas that are expected to generate the most ridership, such as near
employment centers, residential areas, retail centers, education centers, or major medical
facilities.
Provide sidewalks and/or bike paths designed to meet the needs of all users (including elderly,
children, and individuals with disabilities) to connect development to transit stops.
Provide bicycle parking that includes covered bike racks at transit stops; ensure it does not conflict
with vehicular or pedestrian travel.
Provide shelters, benches, trash receptacles, lighting, and landscaping to enhance the overall
comfort and attractiveness of transit; ensure amenities do not block pathways, sidewalks, or bike
lanes.
Include doors with 32 inches of clear passage space, and at least one zero-step entrance and
accessible bathroom on the main floor to support those with limited mobility.

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:
