Utah Transit Authority doubles down on value capture

It was a few years ago that UTA got the authority to conduct several pilots where the transit agency co-invested with developers on projects occurring on agency-owned land. In my interviews with the staff there, they informed me that it took a whole new skill set at the transit agency to assess the risks and form the partnerships. At the time, they were still waiting to assess the results. Perhaps the results are in. UTA is seeking the authority to invest in five more projects along their rail lines.
