Land Use Review
Transportation and Land-use Planners from the local jurisdictions in Contra Costa are being asked to conduct a review of land use forecasts for two major efforts. ABAG has requested comments on the Alternative Scenarios of the Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS), and CCTA is looking for Traffic Analysis Zone-level comments on land use inputs for the decennial update of the Countywide Travel Demand Model. To facilitate local staff's review, the Authority has developed GIS mapping resources that will display the landuse inputs through Google Earth. Please visit our Land Use Review page for more information and to access the resources developed for this effort. Comments are due by February 29, 2012.
Measure J TLC and PBTF Programs
In September, the Authority released a call for projects for the Measure J Transportation for Livable Communities (CC-TLC) and Pedestrian, Bicycle and Trail Facilities (PBTF) programs. In response, sponsors submitted 23 applications for the CC-TLC program requesting about $16.6 million in funding and 14 applications for PBTF program requesting about $8 million in funding. Requests for the CC-TLC program exceed expected funds by about $1.7 million and requests for the PBTF program exceed expected funds by about $4.0 million.
Over the next several months, the Regional Transportation Planning Committees will review and make recommendations on how to allocate their share of CC-TLC funds. At the same, the Authority's Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee will review the applications for PBTF funding. The Authority is scheduled to decide how to allocate the funding in April 2012.
