§ 10.36.040. Requirements.

In order to comply with the provisions of this chapter, a traffic impact analysis prepared in accordance with the criteria set forth in the traffic impact study report guidelines established by the transportation department must be submitted and approved by the transportation director. These guidelines are incorporated by reference. The traffic impact analysis must include a transportation demand management plan describing the proposed trip level and outlining proposed transportation demand management measures for the project to achieve the trip level proposed. At a minimum, a proposed trip level shall be equal to or greater than twelve (12) percent of the vehicle trips which would normally be generated by the project commencing in 1994, twenty (20) percent of the vehicle trips which would normally be generated by the project commencing in 2000, and thirty (30) percent of the vehicle trips which would normally be generated by the project commencing in 2006. It is assumed that every project is unique and solutions to solve congestion management and air quality problems will also be unique to that situation. However, the transportation demand management plan must ensure that the proposed transportation demand management measures will be implemented and vehicle trips will be reduced to the level proposed.
