In August, the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program team presented at both the Sustainability Alliance and PlanCheck Neighborhood Councils. During both meetings, staff presented the proposed updates to the TDM Ordinance and answered clarifying questions related to those changes. An informational video is available online.

The draft ordinance would help reduce car dependence in Los Angeles and help the City meet the carbon pollution reduction goals set out in the Mayor’s Green New Deal. The proposal requires expanded TDM strategies from certain new developments, including incentives for public transit and carpooling, additional investments in biking and telecommuting programs, and making information about travel options more accessible to residents, employees, and visitors.

Feedback may be sent to the TDM team at planning.mobility@lacity.org. Later this year, an open house and a public hearing will be held in advance of the proposed ordinance being considered for adoption by the City Planning Commission and City Council.
