SUBJECT: CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (CMP)

 

PURPOSE: Adopt resolution certifying compliance with the Congestion Management Program (CMP) pursuant to California Government Code Section 65089

Recommendation :

Adopt the attached Resolution certifying compliance with Congestion Management Program.

Background:

Proposition 111 requires that each city adopt and implement a Transportation Demand Management Plan. As a result cities must provide annual documentation that they are in compliance with the State mandated CMP program which provides a link between development, transportation and air quality through trip reduction and transportation measures.

Analysis:

Using the mathematical formulas provided by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, staff has prepared the Local Implementation Report (LIR) which indicates that the City is in compliance with State requirements (Please see attached report.). The City had a total of 9,743 credits; after subtracting the debits as result of residential development and the opening of one new restaurant and attached office space in the calendar year 98-99, a total of 9,376 remain. Thus, at this time no transportation or traffic improvement measures are required under the Congestion Management Program.
