  3. VMT Analysis – Regional/Jurisdictional Plans • Typically Analyzed Prior to SB 743 • (e.g. Regional Transportation Plan) • Typically Analyzed Using Regional Model • Sketch Planning Techniques Possible

  4. VMT Analysis – Land Development Projects • Regional Model • Statewide Model • Customized Models • Sketch Planning Techniques

  5. VMT Analysis – Roadway Projects • Regional Model • OPR Sketch Planning Techniques • Other Sketch Planning Techniques

  6. Thresholds • Thresholds Recommended by OPR • Local Variations Under Consideration • Comparison to RTP/SCS • Smaller Subdivision of Region (By Geography) • Smaller Subdivision of Region (By Place Type) • Thresholds for Redevelopment Projects • Definition of Horizon Year(s) for Analysis

  7. Mitigation • Mixed Use Projects • Transit/Bicycle/Pedestrian Improvements • CAPCOA Report • Roadway Projects

  8. Policy Considerations • VMT Fee • Programmatic EIR for Multiple Development Projects • Roadway Capacity Improvements • for Land Development Projects

  9. Current SB 743 Activities • Early Implementers: Pasadena, San Francisco, Oakland • SACOG/SCAG Study • Development of Local Guidelines • City of Los Angeles • OCTA • San Diego ITE Section • Caltrans • TAG/TISG Process • Interim Guidance • Research
