Dear Interested Parties:
Earlier this month, LA City Planning and LA Department of Transportation released revised drafts for the proposed Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program update for public review and comment. A
virtual Open House & Public Hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, August 2, 2022 at 4:00 p.m.
The proposed TDM Program update aims to reduce the need for drive-alone vehicle trips by increasing transportation options and accessibility throughout the City, providing benefits to the environment and public health. It would require new development projects over a certain size to implement strategies such as supporting transit, telecommuting, walking, carshare, and other sustainable travel options that reduce vehicle trips. This effort is part of the city’s implementation of the Mobility Plan 2035.
The revised drafts of the
TDM Ordinance and
TDM Program Guidelines incorporate feedback gathered over the last several years, including through public workshops and office hours held in 2021. Among changes to the revised ordinance are adjusted project size thresholds and modified monitoring and enforcement procedures.
Please visit City Planning’s mobility website
planning4la.org/mobility to view the revised draft TDM Ordinance, draft TDM Program Guidelines, a new
fact sheet, informational videos, and to sign up for updates.
A public hearing is a means to collect comments from stakeholders before the proposed TDM Program update is presented to the City Planning Commission for recommendation, and ultimately the City Council for adoption. A presentation will be followed by an opportunity to provide oral comments. The
virtual Open House and Public Hearing is open to everyone who would like to participate. No decisions will be made at the Public Hearing.
