EXHIBIT "A"
(Resolution No. 93-55)
GROWTH F~NAGEMENT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
FOR
DEVELOPMENT MITIGATION, DEVELOPMENT PHASING AND
ANNUAL MONITORING PROGRAMS
GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN REQUIREMENTS.
In order to receive Measure M local street maintenance and
improvement funds, each Orange County jurisdiction must comply with
the Countywide Growth Management Program requirements embodied in
the approved Measure M Ordinance. Central to the program is the
requirement that each jurisdiction adopt a Growth Management
Element of its General Plan, and that the provisions of the Element
be applied to the jurisdiction's development review process. The
General Plan Element is required to include the following:
traffic level of service standards, with a general target of
Level of Service D (or better) for intersections, and a lower
level of service for certain identified intersections in
urbanized areas;
policy statements on the establishment of a development
mitigation program which ensures that new growth is paying its
share of the costs associated with that growth; and
policy statements on the establishment of a development
phasing and annual monitoring program to ensure service goals
are achieved.
Two other growth management provisions must be implemented, in
conjunction with or separate from ~he jurisdiction's General Plan.
The local jurisdiction must demonstraze a means no foster a better
balance between jobs and housing. Also, the local jurisdiction
must participate in Inter-Jurisdictional Planning Forums at the
Growth Management Area level to cooperate in easing cumulative
traffic impacts and coordinate transportation improvements at the
inter-jurisdictional level.
Year 1 - Measure M Eligibility Package approved by OCTA on August
24, 1992 was required to contain the local jurisdiction's adopted
Growth Managemen~ Elemen~ to ins General Plan, a resolution
adopting the Growth Management Element, a resolution committing to
participation in Measure M Inter-Jurisdictional Planning Forums,
documentation regarding how the local jurisdiction will strive no
foster a betuer balance between jobs and housing, Level of Service
Standards (LOS), and a 7-year Capital Improvement Program.
Year 2 - Measure M Eligibility Package is required to contain an
updated 7 year Capital Improvement Program, a certification of the
City's Mainnenance of Effort (MOE), a certification on the progress
on the City's Pavement Management Program, and a reso!uticn
adopting the City of Tus%in Development Mitigation, Development
Phasing and Annual Monitoring Programs.
A-i
CITY OF TUSTIN COMPLIANCE.
Growth Management Element Adoption:
On February 18, 1992, the City of Tustin City Council adopted
General Plan Amendment 92-01 to add a Growth Management
Element to the City of Tustin General Plan. The Element was
based upon the Model Growth Management Element developed
jointly by the County of Orange and the Orange Count}, Division
of the League of California Cities, and contains all required
policy provisions necessary for compliance with the Measure M
Ordinance. A cop}' of the adopted Growth Management Element
and the City Council resolution adopting the Element was
included in the City's Year 1 Measure M Eligibility Package.
Growth Manaqement Element Objectives:
Integral to achievement of the Growth Management Element goals
and policies is an implementation plan to ensure that the
required programs identified in the Element are consistently
applied to the City's development review process.
Specifically, this pertains to the Measure M Development
Mitigation Program, the Development Phasing Program and the
Annual Monitoring Program.
Together, the implementation of the Development Mitigation
Program, Development Phasing Program and the Annual Monitoring
Program provide a framework for responsible land use and
transportation planning by requiring the following:
That a local jurisdiction commit to understanding how the
additional traffic generated by a proposed development
prcject will impact the levels of service within and
outside the jurisdiction's boundaries (Development
Mitigation Program).
That through this assessment, the local jurisdiction
identify circulation improvements necessary to
accommodate the increased traffic and to maintain the
jurisdiction's level of service goals embodied in its
Circulation Element and Growth Management Element
(Development Mitigation Program).
That in conjunction with its review and action on a
proposed development project, the local jurisdiction
ensure that the new growth generated by the proposed
development pay its fair share of costs associated with
that development, including regional traffic mitigation.
This can be accomplished through developer-participation
in zransportation fee programs established to implement
transportation improvements on a ci~ywide or areawide
basis; and/or through conditions of approval requiring
exaczion of specified transportazion improvements
(Development Mitigation Program).
A-2
That the timing of transportation improvements provided
through transportation fee programs, applicable capital
improvement prcjects and conditioned roadway improvements
be coordinated with anticipated development construction.
This ensures that infrastructure is logically added as
development proceeds so that roadway improvements are in
balance with demand (Development Phasing Program).
That the local jurisdiction conduct an annual evaluation
of how its existing and proposed circulation system is
meeting the demand necessitated by e>~isting and approved
development. This evaluation serves as a citywide
checks-and-balance function on the jurisdiction's ability
to meet the circulation needs associated with the
implementation of its General Plan land use program. It
further provides a fine-tuning effort whereby identified
transportation needs can be coordinated with the
jurisdiction's annual and seven-year capital improvement
programs, transportation fee programs, and Snter-
3urisdictional Planning Forum efforts (Annual Monitoring
Program).
Process for Development Mitigation, Development Phasing, and
Annual Monitoring Programs:
The above five-point program embodies planning practices which
the City of Tustin currently implements or is in the process
of implementing in conjunction with its General Plan land use
program; its adoption of the Santa Ana-Tustin Transportation
System Improvement Authority Area Fee Program; participation
in the Major Thoroughfare and Bridge Fee Program for the
Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor, an areawide
transportation fee program; and implementation of the the East
Tustin Infrastructure Assessment Districts Fee Programs.
The City's participation in the GF~ 7 inter-3urisdic~ional
Planning Forum has included a sharing of the City's land use
approvals with adjacent jurisdictions to enable the
jurisdictions tc understand transpcrtation infrastructure
needs at the G~. level, identify areas cf deficiency, and
prioritize candidate improvement projects for funding
considerauion by the Orange County Transportation Authority to
address identified G~-leve] deficiencies.
The City of Tustin is developing a program to monitor how the
statewide recuirements of Proposition ili's Congestion
Management Program (CMP), the countywide requirements of the
Measure E program, and the areawide requirements of the South
Coast Air Quality Management Plan could be applied to
development projects through implementation of a multi-
program process. Currently, the City is in the process of
implementing a monitoring program for C~[P and Measure ~
recuirements. This program will serve to address the City's
Annusi ~[onitorlnc Program requirements.
To satisfy e!icibil~ ·
. _.} requirements, documentation of the
City's cvera!l implementaticn of the three required Measure ~
Growth !.~anagement Plan Programs is charted in the "City cf
A-3
Tustin Measure "M" Growth Management Implementation P2an
Process" which is included on Page A-5.
Through the development review process as shown in the chart
on Page A-5, the Community Development Department and Public
Works Department identify traffic mitigation necessitated by
individual projects and timing of mitigation improvements
necessary to maintain General Plan Level of Service (LOS)
goals and maintain a balance between transportation facilities
and demand. This is achieved through individual or collective
use of:
Conditions of approval which exact
benefitting the circulation system
improvements
Applicant participation in fee program(s) which include
identified improvements to benefit the local circulation
system such as the Sanna Ana - Tustin Transportation
System improvement Authority (TSIA) Area Fee Program;
participation in the Major Thoroughfare and Bridge Fee
Program for the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor,
which is an areawide 5ransportation fee program; and
participation in the East Tus=in Infrastructure
Assessment Districts Fee Programs.
Local capital improvement program improvements
benefiuting the circulation system. Such projects are
identified in the City's Four-year Capital Improvement
Program, and, if appropriate, the City's Seven year
Capital Improvement Program for Measure "M" and
Congestion Managemen5 Program compliance.
Requiremen% for =ransit and TD~ strategies to reduce
vehicle trips, imposed through the Cit}"s Transportation
Demand Managemen~ Ordinance.
