For this study the JTC will contract with a national expert on developing inclusive, mixed-income, mixed-use transit-oriented housing to complete a review of transit-oriented development conditions in cities in King, Pierce, Spokane, Clark, and Snohomish counties that have populations of more than 12,500; and have at least one major transit stop. The review will include recommendations for state-level policy to expand housing and mixed-use transit-oriented development in a manner that minimizes displacement of existing communities and ensures housing near transit remains affordable to low-income Washingtonians.

We anticipate having a consultant under contract by September 1, 2024.  The final report is due to the Legislature by June 30, 2025.​
