BACKGROUND INFORMATION: SJCOG, as the Regional Transportation Planning Agency and the Metropolitan Planning Organization for San Joaquin County, has been actively working on the draft 2014 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy for San Joaquin County. The Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) is a long-range transportation plan that is developed and updated by SJCOG every four years. The RTP guides investments in transportation improvements throughout the region. Using growth forecasts and economic trends that project out to 2040; the RTP considers the role of transportation in the broader context of economic, environmental, and quality -of -life goals for the future, and identifies regional transportation strategies to address our mobility needs. The Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) is a newly required element of the RTP. The SCS will integrate land use and transportation strategies that achieve Air Resource Board emissions reduction targets. SJCOG is the lead agency in facilitating the development of the RTP. Throughout the development of the RTP, SJCOG staff are guided by numerous advisory committees, county transportation commissions, local governments, several state and federal agencies including Caltrans, environmental and business communities,. tribal governments, non-profit groups, as well the general public. The end result of this collaborative. process is a RTP that reflects public consideration and addresses the region's needs. City of Lodi staff actively participated in the RTP process, ensuring that Lodi's existing and future land use plans, proposed development and circulation needs have been included in the draft RTP. Staff will continue to participate in the process and ensure that City concerns and short and long term circulation needs are met on a regional basis. APPROVED:' 'I— ° S chwabauer, iRterumCity Manager Draft 2014 RTP/SCS Presentation SJCOG Page 2 of 2 Lodi projects included within the RTP/SCS include: the Harney Lane overcrossing/railroad grade separation, capital financing for Lodi Grapeline service and operations, Sacramento Street enhancements, various street rehabilitations, widening and signalization, Harney Lane / Highway 99 interchange improvements, and Kettleman Lane / Highway 99 interchange improvements. Other Lodi transportation system improvements are included that help reduce regional transportation congestion and connectivity. The draft document is now out for a 55 -day public comment period that ends April 23, 2014 and can be found on the SJCOG website. - Staff has been reviewing the draft document to ensure City concerns are incorporated into the plan. A copy of the draft RTP/SCS Executive Summary is provided as Attachment A. A final RTP/SCS will be published in the future. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable. 1 S ep en chwabauer Interim Community Development Director EXECUTIVE SUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The 2014 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) represents a new chapter in the development of the San Joaquin region's transportation system. Referred to as"The Plan,"the Plan incorporates the clear mandate from the citizens of San Joaquin County who succeeded in 2006, with 78 percent of the vote, to extend Measure K an additional 30 years. It is comprehensive in its response to new federal statutes embodied in the MAP -21 (Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21 st Century) and state statutes including Senate Bill (SB) 375. The Plan continues to provide a "sustainability vision"for 2040 that recognizes the significant impact the transportation network has on the region's public health, mobility, and economic vitality. As the region's comprehensive long-range transportation planning document, the Plan serves as a guide for achieving public policy decisions that will result in balanced investments for a wide range of multimodal transportation improvements. ?'� a '►' � � � �, •`y �`� ' � r��'' � a 4x r [ {� � ` �ay �'•^ t ; � s r r�1�� - p ��-y �� , �7ny �'•lf -f 1 `�' i yJ,r*i -.s T#,a ii .. !

The Plan reflects a region -specific, balanced multimodal plan that not only achieves the intent and promise of SB 375, but can be implemented through existing and planned programs or policies. In fact, the development of the Plan began from extensive work already rooted in existing plans and programs. The Plan foundation comprises recent household and job growth forecasts, market demand and economic studies, and transportation studies including SJCOG's Smart Growth Transit Oriented Development Plan, Goods Movement Study, and Regional Bike/Pedestrian Master Plan. The achievements of the plan are summarized in Figure ES.1 Civic Engagement This Plan embodies local visions through local input. Local experts in the fields of housing, land use, environment, and public works participated in the RTP/SCS development through a formal advisory committee or through other avenues of public feedback (e.g., workshops, online input through social media or web surveys, and public comment opportunities at SJCOG committees and board meetings). Figure ES.1 What's in it for me? 41116MI0111, -.,. RTP/SCS: WHAT'S v (T IN IT FOR ME? EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -3 These interests provided perspectives on economic development, environmental preservation, air quality, public health, environmental justice, and farmland conversation/preservation which all helped to reshape existing RTP goals, policies, and objectives. A series of public workshops to get feedback from the public also guided the direction of transportation investments for the region within the context of San Joaquin's future population, employment, and housing growth. Policies and Supportive Strategies The Plan can be considered the San Joaquin region's "statement of priorities" for the future transportation system from 2012 through 2040. Therefore, at the highest level, the policies, supportive strategies, and performance indicators for this document are all designed to articulate: (1) what the region wants the future transportation system to look like; (2) what types of decisions will help the region attain its vision; and (3) the performance measures or indicators by which the region can assess its progress. In fact, establishing clear linkages between the broad, value -laden goals and the more specific performance indicators helps to provide a tangible path toward feasible implementation. The policies and supportive strategies are identified in Figure ES.2 �® ES -4 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN/SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES STRATEGY Figure ES.2 Policy: Enhance the Environment for Existing and Future Generations and Conserve Energy Strategy #1: Encourage Efficient Development Patterns that Maintain Agricultural Viability and Natural Resources Strategy #2: Enhance the Connection between Land Use and Transportation Choices through Projects Supporting Energy and Water Efficiency Strategy #3: Improve Air Quality by Reducing Transportation -Related Emissions Policy: Maximize Mobility and Accessibility Strategy #4: Improve Regional Transportation System Efficiency Strategy #5: Optimize Public Transportation System to Provide Efficient and Convenient Access for Users at All Income Levels Strategy #6: Facilitate Transit -Oriented Development to Maximize Existing Transit Investments Strategy #7: Provide Transportation Improvements to Facilitate Non -Motorized Travel Strategy #8: Improve Major Transportation Corridors to Minimize Impacts on Rural Roads Policy: Increase Safety and Security Strategy #9: Facilitate Projects that Reduce the Number of and Severity of Traffic Incidents Strategy #10: Encourage and Support Projects that Increase Safety and Security Strategy #11: Improve Communication and Coordination between Agencies and Public for Emergency Preparedness Policy: Preserve the Efficiency of the Existing Transportation System Strategy #12: Optimize Existing Transportation System Capacity through Available and/or Innovative Strategies Strategy #13: Support the Continued Maintenance and Preservation of the Existing Transportation System Strategy #14: Encourage System Efficiency with Transportation Improvements that Facilitate Great Jobs/Housing Balance Strategy #15: Improve Transportation Options Linking Residents to Employment Centers within and out of the County Policy: Support Economic Vitality Strategy #16: Improve Freight Access to Key Strategic Economic Centers Strategy #17: Promote Safe and Efficient Strategies to Improve the Movement of Goods by Water, Air, Rail, and Truck Strategy #18: Support Transportation Improvements that Improve Economic Competitiveness and/or Revitalization of Commercial Corridors and Strategic Economic Centers EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -5 Policy: Promote Interagency Coordination and Public Participation for Transportation Decision - Making and Planning Efforts Strategy #19: Provide Equitable Access to Transportation Planning Strategy #20: Engage the Public Early, Clearly, and Continuously Strategy #21: Use a Variety of Methods to Engage the Public, Encouraging Representation from Diverse Income and Ethnic Backgrounds Policy: Maximize Cost -Effectiveness Strategy #22: Support the Use of State and Federal Grants to Supplement Local Funding and Pursue Discretionary Grant Funding Opportunities from Outside the Region Strategy #23: Support Projects that Maximize Cost Effectiveness Strategy #24: Maximize Funding of Existing Transportation Options Policy: Improve the Quality of Life for Residents Strategy #25: Encourage Transportation Investments that Support a Greater Mix of Housing Options at All Income Levels Strategy #26: Improve the Connection Between Land Use and Transportation Strategy #27: Enhance Public Health through Active Transportation Projects ES -6 REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN/SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES STRATEGY Financial Plan The investment strategy is a balanced approach to multimodal development intended to fulfill the objectives and performance indicators which guide the Plan and move toward achievement of the long- term transportation goals for the region. The transportation investments in the Plan are based on an estimate of available funding through 2040 including reasonably expected federal, state, and local revenue sources. In total, the Plan assumes $11 billion in projected revenues to be available within the time period to 2040, from sources as illustrated in Figure ES.3 Figure ES.3: Revenue Forecast by Fund Source (years 2014-2040) 16%: Federal 259: State ($2.75 Billion) 59%: Local ($6.44 Billion) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES -7 Some features of the financial plan are: • Provides $3.52 billion to transit including bus and passenger rail. This represents a 28.1 percent increase in transit funding over the 2011 RTP. • Reduces investment in roadway capacity expansion by $3.27 billion, a 26.3 percent decrease from the 2011 RTP which directly translates into major reductions in vehicle emissions. • Over $7 billion of the $11 billion in RTP/SCS investments are for state highway and regional roadway maintenance and expansion. • Provides investments in active transportation that fosters walking and biking. The total investment in active transportation infrastructure provides for over 822 miles of new Class 1, 2, and 3 bicycle lanes throughout San Joaquin County. An additional 6 percent of the funds are identified for active transportation non -infrastructure investments. These projects include education, encouragement, and enforcement programs in support of walking and bicycling as well as planning and transit integration projects. • The revenues established for community enhancements within the Plan are based upon a target to fund 75 percent (45 miles) of the roadway frontages adjacent to the infill "opportunity areas" identified in the 2012 SJCOG Regional Smart Growth and Transit -Oriented Development Plan and a cost per mile average of current streetscape projects. • Invests of $282 million in active transportation and community enhancements, a 78 percent increase from the 2011 RTP.

Regional roadway investments are primarily widening and improvements on existing roadways. Harney Road is being improved on the southern edge of Lodi where additional household and job growth is predicted to occur. Summary of Public Support • When asked about how to invest limited transportation $$$, members of the public said: • Multimodal approach was favored • Greater interest in enhanced bus, rail, active transportation options • When asked about future housing & job growth, members of the public said: • Interest for compact development to foster non - automobile travel opportunities • Additional housing choices to accommodate life cycle stages and varying transportation needs What Was Important to Lodi Residents August 2012 Listening Session / Scenario Workshop • Farmland preservation is important • We love our community • Operational improvement — signals along Kettlemen are too long • Non -motorized transportation — walking & biking to improve health • We have a lot of bike lanes already • Add improved public health goal. Improve access to jobs and affordable housing. • Diversity in needs and vision, but all [are] concerned about health of people and the environment RTP Investment Strategy Invests $282 million in active transportation — a 78% increase over 2011 $3.9 billion Operations / Maintenance — 15% more than 2011 $3.5 billion to Transit — a 28% increase over 2011 2.6'0 2014 RTP ■ Total Roadway ■ Total Transit ■ AT/Streetscape ■ Roadway Ops/ Maint/Safety Transportation Investments Lodi Specific Transportation Projects: Transit (Grapevine) $117.93 million Street Rehabilitation $169.00 million Active Transportation $835,000 • Sacramento Street enhancements Interchanges $55.34 million • SR 99 @ SR 12 (Kettleman) • SR 99 @ Harney Lane Regional Roadways • Lockeford Street • Century Boulevard • Ham Lane • Harney Lane • Victor Road $34.6 million n_�� Victor Road widened to 4lanas Ham Lane widened to 4 lanes E VICtOf Rd C ity of Lodi - Century Blvd Gap Closure Across IJ FR Lower Sacramento Road widened to 6 lanes Harney Lane Eight Mile Road widened l0 4 lanes widened to 6 lanes Eight Mile Road widened to 6lanes The Goal & The Vision for the RTP & Beyond Using transportation related funding to support the creation of places where people want to be — with place -making investments in transit, bike & pedestrian projects to promote private/public partnerships and continued investment Active Transportation and Comm unlity Einhancemern rr estmencs 41% Community Enhancements 5396 Active Transportation Infrastructure 6% Active Transportation Non -Infrastructure Funding- estimates for Community Enhancements could support up to 45 miles of streetscape improvements adjacent to infill opportunity areas in SJCOG Regional Smart Growth / TOD Plan Strategies Moving Forward • RTP invests in programs to support implementation of the SCS & other Regional & Local Plans as determined by future actions of the SJCOG Board • Supports Incentive Based Programs — both within new & existing funding sources • Provides data, resources, and expertise to local government and others for synergistic collaborations around specific projects and to further joint planning goals • Value added through increased opportunities and stronger regional positioning Schedule • January to April 2014 — Informational Presentations as Requested • February 28, 2014 — Initial Draft Regional Transportation Plan Released for 55 -day comment period • March 10, 2014 — Release of RTP Environmental Impact Report for 45 -day comment period • March —April 2014 — Public workshops & hearings on Draft RTP • June 2014 — SJCOG Board considers adoption of 2014 RTP Stay Involved!

Why AreWe Planning? There are laws that require these regional plans, but this is also an opportunity to think about how we want our region to grow and evolve over the next several years in a way that meets our needs and matches our values. The San Joaquin Valley's econ- omy is likely to improve as the national economy recovers. Planning for efficient transpor- tation systems makes the re- gion more attractive to poten- tial employers and residents, which will support long-term growth and prosperity. Hous- ing, transportation, and sup- porting infrastructure need to be developed for job growth so that businesses can operate successfully and workers can live nearby and get to work easily. 32.9 Trans 2.6°16: Active 'Transportatil e;4�1 VaReyVisions Investments by Mode 29.9616: Roadway Capacity _mm 35.4%: Roadway Operations &'Maintenance I 1 1 1 1 I 1 1 1 1 ABOUT SJCOG What is the San Joaquin Council of Governments?
