1
Which actor does this item primarily address?
Whose capital decision does this item affect most directly?
2
Does this change an investment decision, or reduce friction for one already being made?
The difference matters: a decision-changer unlocks projects that wouldn't otherwise happen. A friction-reducer helps projects that are already likely.
3
What is the city's actual leverage here?
Can the city deliver this outcome through its own action, or does it depend on another actor agreeing, or on state/federal decisions?
4
What happens if this item is delayed two years?
This is the opportunity cost question. Delay is the default outcome for any item that doesn't get prioritized — the question is what that costs.
