Projects

Senior Manager. Luis led the formation of a new development ordinance and policy aimed at facilitating an urban environment to improve pedestrian mobility, support METRO’s light rail investments, and help accommodate the City’s anticipated growth in its downtown core by taking advantage of market-based development opportunities. A market analysis, as well as a fiscal impact analysis, identified key development opportunities within the corridor study areas and their economic impact. The implementation phase of the initiative quickly met three key goals: higher density transit-oriented developments along all light rail lines, integrated pedestrian-oriented infrastructure investments, and the inclusion of affordable housing units in the project areas.
