ORDINANCE OF' THE CITY COUNCIL QF THE CITY OF PALO ALTO ESTABLISHING ~IRE>!EN'rs FOR TjW!SPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT Members of the counci1: The purpose of this staff report is to forward for Council consideration and action a draft Model Ordinance Establishing Requirements For Transportation Demand Management (AttaChment 1). This is the same ordinance as the Golden Triangle TOM: :Model Ordinance recommended by the Golden Triangle Task Force. staff supports acJoption of such an ordinance for Palo Alto and recommends that Council refer this ite:m to the Policy and Pr~ures Committee tor revie~ and recommendation. M-CI<GROU!!D Palo Alto has a long record of policies and actions that encourage and £awor the better utilization of existing transportation services and facilities" rather than the continual physical expansion of the road'Way system. to serve increasing demand for travel~ Long before it was the trend to do so" Palo Alto had established policies to discourage auto use, increase vehicle occupancy" improve :mass transit, increase transit ridership" promote and facilitate bicycling and wal~inq, avoid major increases in street capacity, implement selective operational improvements to facilitate traffic flow, promote the establishment of carpools and vanpools .. and support the reservation of special travel lanes for buses and car/vanpoois .. as well as encourag~ employers to establish transportation coordinator positions. These policies have consistently been ~sed to shape and guide City programs and projects, as well as city imposed requirements on new private develop~ent~ Therefore, while terminology such as Transportation Demand Management, Average Vehicle Ridership, Commute Alternatives and High-Occupancy Lanes may be new" the concepts and objectives they embody have been guiding principles in palo Alto for a long time. CMR:454 :0 , '. - o o Surveys have shown t.hat traffic congestion is th~ number one concern of busil"!esses in the Golden Trian91e area, and that companies are willing to belp solve the problem. Employers have the ability to encourage the use of commute alternatives through the provision of inf~rmation, incentives, and commute assistance to their employees. Thez-are also able to provide a corporate environment supportive of commute alternatives thrOlJ:qh policies regarding schedules, parking services, and related issues. Several employers in the Golden Triangle area, as well as elsewhere, bave already developed eff4:ctive Commute Alternative Programs of their own. Examples include a company that has increased the number of people using commute alternatives from 11 percent to 43 percent. HO'.1ever, such efforts can have a major impact only if all major employers do their individual parts. In 1985-, a small sample s'Jrvey of the Golden Triangle area indicated that 17 percent of Golden Triangle commuters used an alternative mode of transportation (other than drive alone) to travel to York. In 1987, the Golden Triangle Task Force identified, and the City Council concurred with. a goal that would inc~ease the use of alternative (transit. carjvanpools. telecommuting. bicyclir.g:, and -walJtin9) transportation modes to 35 percent by 1997. In December 1988, the Cal ifornia. Clean Air Act was enacted. thereby requiring the implementation of -transportation control measures· such as commute alter~atives programs, in order to meet state and federal air quality standards. In addition, the recent passage of Proposition 111~ raising the fuel tax, requires local governments to create or designate a Cong~stion Management pla~~ing Agency to implement such traffic reduGtion programs, in Qrder to qualify for much of the new-fundinqa Palo Al to has supported the formation of such a congestion Management Flanning Agency for Santa Clara County (CMR:290:0l· PARTIcrP.a.TION 'IN GOLDEN TRIA1lGI£ Palo Alto has consistentlY been a strong advocate of the need for multi-jurisdictional cooperation to address transportation needs and issues~ In 19a6~ Palo Alto joined the Golden Triangle TasK. Force, ~hich had its genesis in early efforts by the Santa Clara county Manufacturing Group~ The purpose of the Golden Triangle Task Force is to address. through a multi-jurisdictional cooperative effort~ an appropriate balance among jobs ... housing I land use, and transport infrastructure. The Golden Triangle Task Force noV includes the cities of Milpitas., Mountain Viev, Palo Al to .. san Jose" and Sunnyvale. as well as the County of Santa Clara. Former Council Member Larry Klein served as Palo Alto's representative on. the Golden Triangle Task Force for several years. currently. Mayor Ccb~ serves in that capacity. CMR:454:0 812/90 Page 2 • , ! f t L . '---- o Since joining the Golden Triangle Task Force, Palo Alto has contributed substantial staff and council member time to the formation and instit>Jtionalization of the Golden Triangle Task Force. and to the development of the technical and policy related matters that it has come to embrace. OVer the past several years, Palo Alto has also contributed substantial funding, in the amount of $288 .. 00,0 (through June 30, 1990). in support of the Golden Triangle Task Force and the Golden Triangle commuter Net~ork. An additional amount of $140.000 is included in the City's current FY 90-91 Budget for support of these t'Wo agencies. This is in acklition to the new full~·time positi.on,. authorized by council to begin in FY 90-91, for a person to serve as the commute coordinator for city employees. One of several areas in which the Golden Triangle Task Force has focused its attention and resources is the need and importance of red,ucinq the number of vehicle trips (increase vehicle occupancy) , particularly during tbe peak commute periods when traffic conditions are generally Blost severe. Efforts to influence people's choices regarding transportation modes and to create incentives that favor alternative transportation modes (car/ vanpools, public transit. valki~, bicyclinq~ etca) concentrate on the demand for .. rather than the supply of, transportation, and have come to be referred to generically as Transportation Demand Management (TDK)a As a way to formalize a commitment to TOM as one i~portant means by vbich to help a~ress area transportation needs, as well as to develop a sense of uniformity and equity among different organizations and within organizations vith multiple ~ork sites in different jurisdictions, the Golden Triangle Task Force has developed a model TDH ordinance. The intent is that each member city and the county ~ill adopt. essentially, the same TDK ordinance; thereby creatinq the same basic requirelllents for TOM. program development, implementation, monitoring, and reporting throughout the member jurisdictions~ Furthermore. as a means to facilitate implementation of a TOM o·rdinance. as 'Well as encourage its uniform interpretation and application, the Golden Triangle Task Force has established the Golden Triangle Commuter Network Council. The Commuter Network Council consists of elected officials from each of the member cities and the County, as 'Well as four private sector members representing employers and developers. Mayor Cobb presently serves as Palo Altors representative on the Commuter Net~ork Council. The commuter Network has Cully trained professional staff ready to provide a full range of services to assist employers in meeting the requirements of a TDM ordinance a Such services include commute coordinator training. program assistance, commute survey assistance. reporting assistance. and creating public/private partnerships.. Attachment 2 provides a summary description of these 8/2/90 Page 3 • \ I ! t I I I , -. , \' \ \ • \. - o o services. Gary W. Edson is the Director of the Commute Network, and Ana Hernandez Pena is the Account Manager for Palo Alto employers. The offices of the Commuter Network are located at 101 Metro Drive_ suite 248, San Jose. CA 95110; Phone [~08) 453-4030; FAX «08) 453-4145. PROPOSf;!>~(}ROI~ It is important to note that the TDH Model ordinance is the result of extensive and exhaustive efforts to develop a consensus among the participatinq cities. the county, and representatives of the business community. OVer a period of years, numerous informational meetings, workshops, and public meetings have been held to share infonnatio.l1., hear concerns. and gather ideas. Much of the content of the TOK Model Ordinance is the result of substantial debate" neqo-tiaticn, and compromise among elected officials and business representatives .froIl within the member jurisdictions~ The intention of the Golden Triangle Task Force is to have each member jurisdiction adopt the TOM Hod~l O~dinance in substantially the form of the model ordinance. While such efforts do not preclude the need for a full discussion and possible changes, such actions should reflect a sensitivity to the p,receding efforts to develop a broad consensus~ which this TDM Hodel Ordinance represents. The basic Qbjective of the TDM Kodel Ordinance is to establish a mechanism whereby: Ca) All employers establish an effective TOM program, (b) Program requirements are uniform and equitable within and among the membEr jurisdictions, (el Monitoring and reporting procedures are comp&tible# (d) Employers have mall:imum flexibility in cetermining what TDK measures best serve their individual needs and interests.. and eel Professional assistance and training is readily available to any employer to help establish and maintain an effective TDM program. It is the intention of the Golden Triangle Task Force that all five memb~r cities and the county adopt the same ordinance, the basic features of which include the following: 1.

Attachment 4. presents sample sched,ule information regarding implementation of the TOM ordinance, and Attachment 5 presents a list of Palo Alto employers with 10{l or more employees~ by size of work force. Since Palo Alto yill be responsible for enforcement of the ordinance~ staff believes that actual implementation dates should be included in the ordinance or established by resolution of the Council. 6. Each employer yill need to establish a management plan for each work site and designate a manager and commute coordinator to oversee the implementation of the TDK program and the annual reporting procedures.

Attachment 1 presents a sample basel inejann·ual report format and a sample commuter s~rvey for use in monit.oring and reporting on the TOM program for an7 given employer. S. Failure to comply 'With tbe mandatory provisions of the ordinance (designating a manager and commute coordinator and submitting an initial Baseline Report and subsequent Annual Reports) will result in an infraction. Further non­ compliance can result in a Dlsdemeanor offense after tyO or more previous infractions within a three-year period. The Palo Alto Municipal Codes (1.08.010) specifies the penalty for an infraction as~ (1) a fine not e~ceeding one lIundred dollars for a first violation, (2) a fine no·t exceeding two nundred dollars for a second violation of the same cl"d.inance within one year. and (3) a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars tor each additional violation of the same ordinance within one year. The penalty for a lIisdemeanor is specified as a tine of no·t more than one thousand dollars or by imprisonment in the county jail for a period not exceedinq six months, or both fine and imprisonment. City Staff has some concern about making violatiOlls of this .ordinance a misdemeanor. A civil enforcement penalty £ay be more appropriate. 9. Ordinance viII be effective 30 days aft.er its adoption. REL.'.'I'1QIlSHIJ> WITH EXISTING TDM PROGR1\MS AND R~Q!LU(EMENTS TDK programs by employers within Palo Alto is not a ne .... idea. During the past decade, well preceding tbe current Golden Triangle efforts, a numher of :major employers established. strengtt.ened, and institutionalized TDK programs within their respective organizations. Mc:tivated by factors such as economics, environmental ayareness, corporate responsibility and/or encouragement and requirements from the City of Palo Alto, a number of TOM programs are already in place at several ~ajor employers within Palo Alto. Organizations such as Varian, Alza, Xero~, Syntexl Hewlett-packard~ Ford Aerospace, Stanford University, Palo Alto Medical Foun1ation and others have made notable efforts toward developing and maint.aining effective TOM' programs. While the nature of each company's ,program is tailored to meet its specific characteristics, and the qoaIs.. standards and measures vary somevhat due to the evolutionary understanding and development of TDM programs, the CMR:454 :0 .. ~--. 8/2/90 Page 6 L • '",>c" .~ . " \ ~-~--\ - ba.sic concepts embodied in the TOM Model Ordinance are not dissimilar to the TOM programs alre~dy in place. In addition, the review and appro~al in 1989 of the citywide Land Use and Transportation Study included provision for the eventual implementation of: (a) a citywide IlGolden Triangle type-TDK ordinance and (b} a more rigorous TDK ordinance for the Stanford liesearch Park. As part of the review of the TDM Model Ordinance... staff has considered the relatl~ship and effect of the TOM Model ordinance upon the existing TDM requirements that the city has imposed upon selective employers durinq the past several years and has developed t.he foIl-owing strateg-j' regardinq the disposition of such requirements.,. subject to final approval of a TDM o,rdinance for Palo Alto .. 1. Existing, approved TDM re~irements for Varian.,. A12a, Syntex and Ford Aerospace will be superseded by Palo Alto's TDM ordinance and will cease to be a requirement for these organlzations~ One of tbe primary objectives of the Golden 'friangle effort 'has been to develop a sense of uniformity and equity among di.fferent employers.,. as 'Well as among various facilities for the same employer, that may be located in different jurisdictions. 2. Palo Alters TOM: crdinance will not apply to Stanford University (i.e., that portion of the University outside of Palo Alto's city limit). Rather, the more stringent standard of achievement and reporting mechanisms incloded as part of the county's approval of the santa Clara county General Use Permit for Stanford University are more appropriate and viII remain in effect for Stanford University. 3~ The rationale for a TDK ordinance for the stanford Research Park that is more rigorous than the proposed citywide TDK ordinance no longer e~ists. At the time of the review of the Cit:r-ide Land Use and Transportation stooy.,. the then current draft .of the Golden Triangle TOM Model ordinance specified that it was to be applicable only to new development.,. and no,t to existing development. The general intention of the more rigorous TOM ordinance for the Stanford Research Park vas to make it applicable to all (new and existing) development. Subsequent drafts of the Golden Triangle TDK Model Ordinance evolved to include applicability to both new and existing developrnent~ This was a major strengthening of the ordinance.,. in terms of its potential overall effectiveness, and negated the need for a separate more rigorous ordinance that would be applicable only to the Stanford Research Park~ Therefore, the TDM Model Ordinance vil} be applicable throughout the entire city, including the Stanford Research Park. CKR:4S4.:0 8/2/90 Page 7 o o It should be noted that, while the TDK Model ordinance specifies certain requirements regardinq qoals" staffing, monitori1i9 and reporting, there is nothing that precludes an employer. for whatever reasons &ight drive such a commitment, from achieving the f~ll TOM potential consistent with their respective interests and commitJ[l.ent .. ilUC'l' ON PAW ALTO The eftects of the TDK Model ordinance on Palo Alto include the following: 1. An existing diverse set of TDM requirements, for a small number of major employers in Palo Alto. ~ill be replaced with a set of uniform and equitable TOM requirements tor all employers (with 10'0 or more employees) in Palo Alto .. 2~ TOM requirements for employers in Palo Alto will be the same as those for employers in each of the Golden Triangle Task force ~ember jurisdictions. 3. The city of Palo Alto~ as a major employer (90~+ employees at -mult.ip1e 'Wo·rk sites) ~ 'Will be require13 t.o d.evelop an effective in-bouse TOM program u·nder t.he management and administration of designated responsible staff. Responsibil ity for the TDM program bas already been assigned to tl" .. e Depart.ment of Human p.eso\lrces~ and council bas already authorized one new full-time position for a commute coordinator • .c .. Most of the responsibility of -workinq with employers to help develop# monitor and report. on their TDK programs will fall to the staff of the Golden Triangle Commuter Network~ serving as the agent for the city. 5. The City of Palo Alto will retain a responsibility to provide appropriate support to the Golden Triangle Commuter NetworK. While it is the intention of the Golden Triangle Task Force to eventually incorporate the Commuter Net~ork into the countywide Congestion Management Planning Ager~~ it is likely to be som~ time before that happens, and the resulting consequences in terms of financial support from Palo Alto are uncertain at t.his ti~e.
