Cape Cod Growth Incentive Zones

The Cape Cod Commission and Cape Cod Municipalities may coordinate their efforts to identify and designate Growth Incentive Zones (GIZs), areas particularly desirable and appropriate for concentrated growth and development, and establish corresponding Development of Regional Impact review thresholds unique to and in support of such designated areas. Such a designation furthers values and interests set out in Section 1 of the Act: to maintain and enhance sustainable and balanced year-round economies; to provide opportunities for economic development and growth; to maintain and enhance a variety of housing types and opportunities; to maintain and enhance the availability of desired goods, services and amenities; and to direct and incentivize development to locate into areas with a system of existing or planned synergistic uses, capital facilities, amenities, infrastructure and compact development and away from areas less appropriate or undesirable for this type of development.科德角委员会（Cape Cod Commission）与科德角各自治市可协同开展增长激励区（Growth Incentive Zones，GIZs）的识别与划定工作——此类区域为特别适宜开展集中式增长与开发的地块，并针对此类划定区域设立专属且适配的区域开发影响（Development of Regional Impact）审查阈值，以支持此类划定区域的发展。此类划定工作可推进该法案第1条所确立的各项价值与目标：维持并优化可持续且均衡的全年经济体系；为经济发展与增长提供契机；维持并丰富住房类型与住房供给机会；维持并提升各类刚需商品、服务与公共设施的可及性；引导并激励开发项目选址于具备现有或规划协同用途、资本设施、公共配套、基础设施与紧凑开发模式的区域，同时规避布局于此类开发不太适宜或不受欢迎的区域。
