SUBJECT: Regional Traffic Impact Mitigation Fund
Supervisor Tom Torlakson stated that the increase in jobs in
Central County created by new development and the lack of sufficient
affordable housing in Central County for the new employees is having
significant impacts on our regional road and highway system. He pre-
sented the following recommendations to address the problem:
1 . Direct Public Works and Community Development Department
staff to develop guidelines and data for a Regional
Traffic Impact Mitigation Fund and report back to the
Board in January on this matter; also direct the County
Administrator to coordinate the development of this plan
with the City/County Engineers and the Mayors' Conference
Planning Committee for their input; and
2 . Direct staff to temporarily condition all current and
future applications to participate in the final Regional
Traffic Mitigation Fund to the extent their ultimate
fair share as defined by a final adopted policy on this
matter presented and publicly heard before the Board of
Supervisors.
Board members agreed with the need to develop guidelines but
expressed reservations about Recommendation #2. Supervisor Tom Powers
moved to vote on each of the recommendations separately. Supervisor
Sunne McPeak seconded the motion, and the vote on Recommendation #1
was as follows:
AYES: Supervisors Powers, Schroder, McPeak, Torlakson,

Recommendation #2, Supervisor Fanden seconded the motion, and the vote
