David Toyer, President of Toyer Strategic Advisors, is a land use and economic development professional with a 20+ year career advising public and private sector clients.
In this episode, Sam the Intern asks David questions from listerners concerning trees and traffic. In answering, David covers topics including:
Tree Retention/Replacement
Required Landscaping
Wildland Urban Interface (WUI)1
Traffic from a Growth Management Perspective
Concurrency: the “Pass” or “Fail” Test
Levels of Service Standards - Making the Grade
Creating Capacity v. Reaching “Ultimate” Capacity
The High Cost of Transportation Improvements
Interlocal Agreements & Reciprocal Mitigation Fees
This episode was recorded before the Legislature approved SB 6120 in 2024, amending certain requirements for the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) and allowing cities and counties to adopt localized wildfire risk maps. This eliminates some of the conflicts between landscaping and WUI that were intimated in David’s answer.
