Work on the Element has been underway for a number of months during preparation of the Draft Countywide General Plan. Consequently, several tasks in the Project duplicate completed work and ongoing activities of County staff. The bulk of the tasks involve establishing a multi-jurisdictional transportation planning effort under the direction of WCCTAC and the preparation of transportation modeling data to demonstrate compliance with Measure C's intersection Level of Service standards. The $10 million allocation in the Regional Transportation Planning and Growth Management Program in Measure C was established to fund tasks such as these. At this time, the Authority has not made any decision on how to accomplish these tasks. The West County Project will bring this issue to the Authority. A concern of the Transportation Committee is an expectation that the County will share in the $60, 166 local contribution of the Project. The sole source of County funds available to comply with the Measure C is the $50, 000 per year base allocation from the Authority, which is fully committed up to the County' s present effort at developing a Growth Management Element for all unincorporated areas. On June 27 , the Board declared its intent not to request any additional sales tax funds from the Authority beyond the $50, 000 per year base allocation .for preparation of the County's Growth Management Element. Since the $10 million in the Measure C Regional Transportation Planning and Growth Management Program was established specifically for the tasks described in the West County Project, the Transportation Committee included in the recommended resolution the request that the Authority pay 100 percent of the Project's costs. The Transportation Committee is also concerned that the West County Project could proceed without coordination with the multi- jurisdictional transportation planning programs of the other regions in the county. The need for this type of coordination in incorporated into the recommended resolution. The Board's action on this resolution will be forwarded to WCCTAC at their April meeting.
