ATTESTED: July 13, 2010 David J. Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: KATHERINE SINCLAIR, Deputy cc: C. 69 To:Board of Supervisors From:Jim Kennedy, County Redevelopment Director Date:July 13, 2010 Contra Costa County Subject:Transportation Demand Management Program - Contra Costa Centre Area BACKGROUND: Contra Costa County has required a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program for the Contra Costa Centre area since 1986 to encourage the use of alternative modes of transportation by station area employees in order to mitigate the traffic impacts resulting from the development of the area. The County has entered into an agreement with the Contra Costa Centre Association to manage the TDM program for the Contra Costa Centre area each year since 1990. The property owners in the Contra Costa Centre Station Area have voted to approve a County Service Area with an annual assessment to fund TDM. The program offers commute alternative services to station area employees. While there is no mandate requiring participation by employers or any penalty for nonparticipation, the area employers and their employees have been highly participatory in the program. The TDM program goals of achieving over 30% of the area employees travel to work via alternative modes (transit, carpools, vanpools, bicycle, walk, telecommute, etc.) have consistently been met. The project agreement covers a 12-month period from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011. It continues funding for operating vanpools and a noontime shuttle service to nearby commercial areas, for on-site transit ticket sales and for marketing and management of a variety of transit subsidy and incentive programs.
