Thomas Li, Associate Planner IL- SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 6839 FINDING THE CITY OF ARCADIA TO BE IN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (CMP) AND ADOPTING THE CMP LOCAL DEVELOPMENT REPORT, IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65089 Recommendation: Adopt SUMMARY Each City in the State of California is required to submit annually a Local Development Report and certify by resolution to the local Congestion Management Agency that it is in compliance with the local Congestion Management Program. For the City of Arcadia, the report and resolution are sent to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) as the local Congestion Management Agency. The report is due each year by September 1st. It is recommended that the attached Resolution No. 6839 be adopted and sent to the MTA with the Local Development Report. BACKGROUND The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Congestion Management Program (CMP) was developed in response to the passage of Proposition 111 in 1990. Proposition 111 provided an increase in the State Gas Tax to fund regional transportation improvements (Streets and Highways Code, Section 2105) and included the CMP to monitor regional transportation conditions. Conformance with the CMP assures that local agencies are providing transportation improvements to offset the traffic congestion resulting from new development. If a City does not conform to the CMP, that City's share of the Gas Tax increase provided by Reso. No. 6839 — CMP August 7, 2012 Page 3 of 4 California Government Code Section 65089. For the current reporting period (June 1, 2011, to May 31, 2012) the LDR consists of the following four (4) forms: • Deficiency Plan Summary — This form (Section 1, Page 1) summarizes the local development activity by showing the net development totals. • Part 1: New Development Activity — This form (Section 1, Page 2) shows the number of residential units built, and the square- footage of other development activity, based on the building permits that were issued during the current reporting period. • Part 2: New Development Adjustments — This form (Section 1, Page 3) shows the adjustments, or the credits toward the new development debits, based on demolition permits that were issued during the current reporting period. • Part 3: Exempted Development Activity — This form (Section 1, Page 4) shows development that is exempt from being reported as, "new development activity," such as low- income housing, and reconstruction of earthquake- damaged buildings. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Reporting on compliance with a local congestion management program is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The development, or adoption of transportation improvement programs is statutorily exempt per Section 15276 of the CEQA Guidelines. PUBLIC NOTICE A public hearing notice for the adoption of Resolution No. 6839 was published in the Arcadia Weekly on July 26, 2012. FISCAL IMPACT Nonconformance with the CMP could jeopardize Gas Tax funds. If the MTA determined that a City is not in conformance with the CMP, the State Controller is notified to withhold from that jurisdiction its annual allocation of the State Gas Tax increase enacted by Proposition 111 (Streets and Highways Code, Section 2105). If, after 12 months, a City still has not conformed to the CMP, the withheld Gas Tax funds will be allocated to the County. The amount of City Gas Tax funds for the current reporting period that is subject to CMP conformance, is approximately $257,000. The City of Arcadia, however, is in conformance with the CMP, so these funds are not in jeopardy of being withheld.
