Sustainable Mobility Plan Update
{cityof
Carlsbad
Memo ID# 2020172
This memorandum provides an update on the efforts associated with the Sustainable Mobility
Plan (SMP) and updates information provided in a memorandum dated Apr. 30, 2020
(Attachment A).
Background
For just over a decade, the city has actively been developing and implementing a series of
stand-alone documents, technical analyses and recommendations related to improving mobility
for all modes of travel within the city. The SMP is designed to help the city integrate and
synthesize these multiple previous planning efforts. It is a key element in implementing the
General Plan Mobility Element adopted in 2015 and will help meet the greenhouse gas
reduction goals of the Climate Action Plan by shifting community members away from private
automobiles toward modes that are more livable, cleaner and healthier.
Discussion
On March 2, 2020, the draft SMP was presented to the Traffic and Mobility Commission (T&MC)
as an informational item to provide a 30-day review of the document prior to consideration as
an action item at their April 6, 2020, meeting.
On April 6, 2020, the T&MC cited numerous concerns with the draft SMP regarding the project
prioritization system, lack of public review, cohesiveness of the draft SMP and project
monitoring framework (see Attachment B for the meeting minutes). The T&MC requested that
staff address their comments and return with a revised draft SMP at a future meeting. The
T&MC's motion also included creation of an ad hoc committee to assist the project team in the
draft SMP review. The motion was unanimously approved with a vote of 7-0.
Since then, city staff has been working closely with the ad hoc committee to review and update
the draft SMP. Key updates have included extensive modifications to the proposed multimodal
transportation network, Safe Routes to School programming and planning processes, project
prioritization process and Transportation Demand Management (TDM) recommendations.
Additionally, a request for a change in ad hoc committee membership has been submitted by
one of the commissioners, which will be considered at their upcoming meeting on

Sept. 8, 2020.
Due to the extensive revisions, the ad hoc committee has requested that the revised SMP be re-
released to the public in early September to provide adequate time for public review and
comment prior to the October T&MC meeting. It will also be sent to the SMP Stakeholder
Working Group, which met four times to review and provide input into the draft SMP since its
inception.
Next steps
City staff expects to present the revised draft SMP to City Council in November 2020, following
completion of these next steps:
• September 2020-The revised draft SMP will be released for public and SMP
Stakeholder Working Group review
• October 2020 -The revised draft SMP will be presented to the T&MC
• November 2020 -If there is any additional feedback from the T&MC, staff will make
needed revisions.
Once the SMP has been accepted by City Council, staff will prepare a comprehensive analysis so
that any additional resources needed to initiate implementation of the SMP are requested in
the fiscal year 2021-22 budget.

Boulevard extension rather than pursuing the proposed exemptions. Linke noted that this
re~ommendation is consistent with past action taken by City Council on joint public/private
partnerships to finance road projects.
0 Deputy City Manager Gomez addressed Commissioner Linke's comments:
1. 1he College Boulevard extension project, which has a private development financing
obligation according to the current LFMZ 15 Plari and the Citywide Facilities and Improvements
Plan (CFIP), is to construct a two-lane alternative. Staff is required to comply with City Council
direction in the two plans unless City Council provides direction to amend the LFMZ 15 Plan and
CFIP to consider a project for a four-lane alternative and a <;:;iW,t-Jed financing option.
. 2. The staff recommendation includes expeditingtfisting CIP projects to relieve
congestion on the deficient facil ities, and this appro~f6'.i.i¥¢pnsistent with that taken on ·
