In order to implement the goals and objectives of the general plan and to mitigate impacts caused by new development with the County of San Joaquin, a Regional Transportation Impact Fee Program is necessary.

In order to implement the goals and objectives of the general plan and to mitigate impacts caused by new development with the County of San Joaquin, a Regional Transportation Impact Fee Program is necessary.

The Regional Transportation Impact Fee Program ("RTIF Program") is intended to impose a fee to provide funding for transportation and transit improvements that help mitigate these impacts. C. New development throughout the County will be subject to the fee which will be proportional to the impact caused on the Regional Transportation Network by such new development. D. The funding derived from the RTIF Program shall be used in combination with other funding available to complete the needed transportation and transit improvements.
