BILL HB10-1143 CAR Position - Support Summary of HB10-1143 Sponsors: McNulty/Johnston Under existing law, the regional transportation district (RTD) may negotiate and enter into agreements with any person or public entity for the provision of retail and commercial goods and services to the public at transfer facilities. The bill would permit RTD to negotiate and enter into similar agreements for the provision of residential and other uses at transfer facilities, so long as such uses are consistent with local laws relating to planning and zoning. The bill also eliminates a provision prohibiting such agreements if they create a competitive disadvantage for nearby businesses. Finally, the bill requires the provision of retail and commercial goods and services or the provision of residential or other uses permitted under local zoning ordinances at a transfer facility to be conducted in a manner that encourages multimodal access for all users.
