| As the
designated Congestion Management
Agency for Contra Costa, the
Authority must prepare a congestion
management program (CMP) and to
determine, at least every other
year, if the county and cities are
conforming to it. Conformance for
local jurisdictions relates to their
participation in
multi-jurisdictional planning,
attainment of level of service
standards within the jurisdiction,
implementation of a trip reduction
ordinance or resolution, and use of
the land use evaluation program
outlined in the CMP. Jurisdictions
must comply with the CMP to receive
apportionments of funds under
Section 2105 of the Streets and
Highways Code.
To make this
determination of local conformance,
the Authority is asking each
jurisdiction to fill out the
attached compliance checklist and
approve it by a majority vote of the
jurisdiction's council or board.
Local jurisdictions must submit the
completed checklists to the
Authority by December 1, 2002.
The checklist
covers the biennial period of FY
2000-1 to FY 2001-2
