April 2019 Update
Preferred Scenario Adoption

Post

At the April SACOG Board of Directors meeting, the board approved the Preferred Scenario, which consists of a:

Draft Preferred Scenario Land Use Assumptions

Draft Preferred Scenario Transportation Project List

Draft Revenue Forecast

Draft Pricing Strategy

Over the past 16 months, SACOG staff, with direction from the board, has worked with partner and member agencies to develop a land use forecast, transportation project list, revenue and budget assumptions, and future roadway pricing strategies that will serve as the technical foundation for the 2020 MTP/SCS and associated environmental impact report. The SACOG board directed the update of this plan to: (1) consider future uncertainties in transportation technology and funding, (2) support and sustain the economic development of the region, and (3) use transportation performance goals to set the investments of the plan.

Also on April 25, SACOG released a Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the 2020 MTP/SCS. The comment period for the NOP is April 25, 2019 through May 25, 2019.
