*Comprehensive Public Investment Returns Analysis*

The Development Impact Model gives communities, developers, and public-sector partners a comprehensive view of the public investment returns associated with development projects. It combines cutting-edge data with an in-depth understanding of tax structures at the federal, state, and local levels.

## What It Answers

- What does a project create, jobs, payroll, construction activity, tenant sales?
- What does it cost the public, infrastructure, services, incentives?
- What does it return, tax revenue, spinoff activity, long-term fiscal impact?

## Where It Fits

The model supports mixed-use, residential, retail, hotel and hospitality, entertainment district, and industrial development, modeled phase by phase with tax revenue projections per scenario. It is the analytical backbone for communities deciding whether a project or incentive is worth it, and for developers making the public case for support.
