Land Use & Zoning
What is a transit-oriented development (TOD) and how is it relevant in Nevada?
AA development exclusively for public transportation workers
BA mixed-use development concentrated around transit hubs (bus rapid transit, light rail) to promote walkability and reduce car dependency — relevant in Las Vegas and Reno transit planning✓ Correct
CA federal program for highway construction near Nevada development
DA type of commercial-only zoning near airports
Explanation
TOD places higher-density, mixed-use development around transit stations to create walkable, transit-accessible communities. As Nevada's metropolitan areas (Las Vegas Valley, Reno-Sparks) develop transit systems, TOD policies are increasingly relevant for land use planning and property values near transit corridors.
