Hd. -Iag DATE: February 6, 1979 C. Atty. VJF :. Mgr. DEPARTMENT: Planning & Engineering SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION REVISED RAQS TRANSPORTATION CONTROL _. MEASURES Statement of the Matter ' On April 18, 1979, the City Council adopted Resolution 5372 approving the Regional Air Quality Strategy, RAQS Implementation Program, and ; Tactic TI, subject to certain reservations. On October 16, the CPO Board of Directors adopted the Revised Regional Air Quality Strategy. The revised RAQS has been submitted by CPO and the County to the State Air Resources Board for inclusion in ° the Air Quality State Implementation Plan (SIP), r Now CPO is recommending that each member jurisdiction hold hearings and adopt the commitment to Implement Transportation Control' Measures from the Revised RAQS. See attached letter dated November -4 22, 1978 for the requirements pertinent to local jurisdiction action. CPO submitted a sample resolution and attachments for city adoption. This sample has been redrafted as a City Resolution for your u: adoption. Attachment "A" will be the city's commitment to implement x. the transportation control measure with implementation schedule. `t CFO indicated the city could modify the measures to meet its special circumstances, but we should not delete a tactic. Attachment "B" is a commitment of the city's funding and staffing to these I" various tactics.

In addition, Council requested an update report on the progress in 6 months. r' F` MEMORANDUM 07 TO: City Eng i neer v�Cs` FROM: Transportation Engineer DATE: January 25, 1979 SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF REVISED RAQS (REGIONAL AIR QUALITY STRATEGY) TRANSPORTATION C014TROL MU SURES On November 22, 1978 the Comprehensive Planning Organization (CPO) sent to the City of Carlsbad a sample resolution for the revised RAQS commitments to implement the Transportation Control Measures. These RAQS commitments are significant because once the resolution (which CPO wishes to be adopted by our City Council on February 5, 1979) is incorporated into the State implementation Pia:, it will be consid- ered legai'ly binding and will become the basis for both EPA and ARB re- view of local and regional compliance with the Clean Air Act. Failure to adopt and implement "reasonably available" measures could result in the withholding of State and Federal grants for sewer and highway proj- ects, both of local and regional significance. There are two attachments (A and B) that will have to be completed before adoption of the resolution by City Council. Attachment A, which liets several tactics for local jurisdictions, may be somewhat modified so that the City of Carlsbad can implement "reasonably available" trans- portation control measures. The following is a brief discussion of how the various tactics af- fect the Cify of Carlsbad. Tactic T-2 Expanded Ridesharing Most ridesharing programs require little or no capital expenditures. A survey would have to be developed by the designated ridesharing coor- dinator i� order to determine the transportation habits of the City's employees. Management would have to be willing to consider some incentives for employees who rideshare, use public transit or bicycle to and from work (the latter two apply to Tactics T-5 and T-7 respectively). The various Incentives might include flexible working hours, preferred parking, us- ing City vehicles for car pooling, fare reimbursement and time bonuses. Ridesharing programs for private employers can better be considered once some effective guidelines can be provided. Tactic T-5 Expanded Transit There has been ongoing coordination between the North County Tran- sit District and the City. In fact, during the last year approximately -2- 125 bus stop locations were "signed" within the City, which included some ellminotion of on -street parking and installing some new bus benches. No park and ride facilities have been scheduled for Carlsbad at this time. There are currently two bus transfer stations in the City - one along .;rand Avenue just west of Washington Street and the (,"her at the Plaza Camino Real. Tactic T-7 Encourage Bicycle Travel The City has implemented bicycle lanes on most all of El Camino Real and is completing its Coastal Bike Route design. Some discussion of this tactic 9s in T-2 in which a program for com- muter bicycling could be adopted. Both City Hall and the City Library are currently distributing the CPO broc�wre, "Commute by Bicycle!" at no charge. The City would have to purchase some bicycles to establish a vehicle fleet for short trips. (A source for bicycles could be from the Police Department bike auction.) This fleet may well be warranted since most all of the City west of City Hall is relatively flat, and short trips would include those between City Hall, Parks & Recreation Department, Harding Street Community Center, the City Yard and potential leased of- fice space in the downtown area. Tactic T-14 Traffic Flow Improvements The City's Engineering Department and the Traffic Safety Commission are doing what they can to promote safe and effective vehicular traffic flow throughout the City. All of the tactics (listed are included in the City's ongoing traffic planning and operations). Attachment B includes some projects that are scheduled for f,scal year 1978-79. Tactic T-27 Encourage Pedestrian Mode Within the last two years the City installed numerous temporary side- walks to provide safe walking routes to all schools and to the City Library. Also, the City requires all new development to install sidewalks along any street frontages as a condition of its public improvement ordinance. Tactic T-28 Expanded Interurban Bus and Rail time. No passenger train stops (AMTRAK) are planned for Carlsbad at this Process T-1 (modified) Process for Coordinated Land U ^ and Trans ortation Actions This process (population forecasts) is currently underway by the Planning Department. -3- The City's General Plan includes goals to facilitate and encourage the use of transit, ridesharing, bicycles and walking. Tactic F-4 Fugitive Dust, Unpaved Roads All of the City's approximately 120 miles of streets are already paved (except for only 0.2 mile); so, this condition is satisfied. I recommend that the attached resolution and Attachments A and B be forwarded to the Planning Department so they can be submitted to the City Council. ent A.

The purpose of the Revised RAQS is to produce clean, healthy air for the residents of the region, to meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1977 with the least disruption and cost to the local governments and public of the San Diego region, and to avoid the ,sanctions of restricting sewer and highway funds prescribed in the CAAA for failure to meet the requirements. The Revises` RAQS has been submitted by Cif and the (aunty Board of Supervisors to the State Air Resources Board for in— clusion in the Air Quality State Implementation Plan (SIP). EnclosedZeire the Camnitments to Implement Transportation Control measures from the Revised RAQS which the CFO Board of Directors recce mend be adopted by each member jurisdiction.after holding a public hearing. on the matter. Since the CAAA requires that the jurisdiction(s) with the authority to implement each air quality measure must adopt that measure, CPO is recommending that each city prepare a schedule for implementation of appropriate transportation measures and a budget of staff and .financial resources which the city has com- mitted or is willing to commit .for the implementation. There are four requirements of the Clean Air Act which are Ix-rtinent jurisdiction action on the transportation measure comitmentjs: Provide for implementation of all "reasonably available" transportation control measures as expeditiously as practicable. ("Llie transportation measures adopted by CPO on October 16 are considered to be "reasonably available".) Commit to establish, expand, or improve public transportation basic transportation needs as expeditiously as is practicable. Adopt by statute, regulation, ordinances, or other legally enforceable document, the necessary requirements and schedules and timetables fo,: implementation of the appropriate elements of the plan.

CPO staff would like to meet with you or another designated person on your staff to discus_ 1--he tran,%rortation comitments, decide which are appropriate for your city, and assist in the presentation of an adoption rccc—lution, schedule, staff commitments, and budget to your council. These commitments are significant because the resolution adopted by each city will be tpansmitted io APB for inclusion in the SIP, and once incorporated therein ape coriidered legally bi+ding and will be the basis for both EPA and APB moni ring of compliance with the CAP? and federal decisions on sewer and highway grants. It is, therefore, very unportant that each city make a practical and reasonable commitment that it is willing to carry out. These commitments should be adopted by the city council only after holding a public hearing as zequired by the CAAA, but the 30-day notice for that hearing previously suggested by CPO staff has been found to be unnecessary and is not required. Please have your contact person notify Mike Aulick of the CIO staff (236-5343) of a convenient time for discussing these issues. It is necessary that this item be scheduled for public hearing before your council as soon as possible and Ix. -fore the end of the year. 2. lie %could appreciate being informed of the date- you set.
