Public Input

Future growth should not occur on pristine open space.

Close to transit investments, regardless if its within existing single family or not.

Do not need further growth, already too crowded. Build new cities if you must out in the desert… Within in city limits! No more stretching into dangerous wildfire country…

Farm land and protected areas should not be developed. Rural areas need to remain rural.

Densification should be done carefully to make sure existing residents aren’t pushed out, especially the disadvantaged…

Keep single family housing zoning.

What If Connect SoCal Doesn’t Meet State GHG Targets?

• SCAG would be required to prepare a financially unconstrained Alternative Planning

Strategy (APS) to meet regional GHG emission reduction targets.

What If Connect SoCal Doesn’t Demonstrate Transportation Conformity?

• After June 1, 2020 (Conformity Lapse Grace Period)
• All projects in 2016 RTP/SCS and 2019 FTIP can still receive federal approval, but no new

projects and no project amendments.

• After Grace Period (Conformity Lapse)
• No federal funding or approval of non-exempt projects and TCM projects not in an

approved plan unless these projects have received federal authorization prior to lapse.
