New Towns Are Not New
New Town advocates say they should not be held to the ITE method or be held to a maximum percent
1997A rate of 20 to 25 percent is considered very high for any mixed-use development… ….. In any case, the rate used should be justified by the applicant and approved by the Department.

Recommendations
• Each site is unique, no minimum or maximum values for Community Capture will be provided by the FDOT.
• Substantial monitoring programs• Transparent model factors
Community Capture can be applied only to mixed large scale DRIs
Have a balance of land uses to fulfill a significant portion of the
community’s needs
These communities are separated from other developed areas
Where May Community Capture be Applied?
Using the Right Tools for Determining Community Capture
• No single tool for determining Community Capture currently exists.
• Need refinements to existing tools
A Proposed Method
• use an increased selection of single family housing categories (high
cost employed, retired, seasonal, medium cost employed, and low
cost employed)
• Summarize the potential attractions within the community, based on
the marketing plan, to better account for income differences;
• Create transportation analysis zones (TAZs) for each land use;
• Use K-factors (travel-time friction factors) within the model to make
reasonable adjustments to the trip distribution patterns
