Transit consulting makes up part of our business at Urban One.  We have been involved in the Downtown Los Angeles Streetcar in several different roles over the years and we have provided public financing options, underwriting and feasibility analysis for other public and private authorities to help them determine the feasibility of similar transit options that may be financed through some form of unique financing mechanism, such as Benefit Assessment Districts (BAD), Community Facilities / Mello-Roos District (CFD) and Infrastructure Financing Districts (IFD).  In fact, as part of our past work on the Los Angeles Streetcar project, Urban One led the development of the first CFD of its kind to be formed by a public vote in a populated urban area.  Here are some featured transit projects that we have done at Urban One.
