TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS .
FROM: TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE
DATE: April 12, . 1993
SUBJECT: Approve SWAT Proposal for Allocation of AB 434 TDM Funds
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Authorize the Board's representative to the Southwest Area
Transportation Committee (SWAT) to sign a joint resolution of SWAT,
providing for an apportionment of AB 434 funds within the SWAT
region to support the implementation of a transportation demand
management (TDM) program.
FISCAL IMPACT
None. The SWAT,TDM program will be funded entirely by AB 434 funds.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
At its. March 1, 1993 meeting, the Southwest Area Transportation
Committee (SWAT) approved a concept for implementing a regional
transportation demand management (TDM) program that responds to the
mandates of Measure C and the Congestion Management Program. Each
of the other three regional transportation planning committees has
already established a regional TDM program. SWAT is unique in that
most large employers, which are subject to the TDM requirements,
are located in one city, San Ramon. TDM concerns in the remaining
SWAT area are focused on schools and residences. Funds are
available through AB 434, which established a surcharge on motor
vehicle registration fees, to support local TDM programs. SWAT has
recommended that its member jurisdictions authorize their
representatives to sign a joint resolution which establishes an
allocation of AB 434 funds within the SWAT region as follows: 50%
of SWAT's entitlement to the City of San Ramon to support an
employer-based program and 50% to a jurisdiction to be designated
by the Towns of Danville and Moraga, Cities of Lafayette and Orinda
and Contra Costa County to support a TDM program oriented to
schools and residences.
