Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program Draft Documents Released in Advance of Public Hearing |
|
City Planning and the Department of Transportation (LADOT) are pleased to announce the release of revised drafts for the proposed Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program update for public review and comment. A virtual Open House and Public Hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, August 2, from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
The proposed TDM Program update is an important step in implementing the City's Mobility Plan 2035. The 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. 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.
The virtual Open House and Public Hearing is open to everyone. It is an opportunity for City Planning to collect comments from stakeholders before presenting the proposed TDM Program update to the City Planning Commission, followed by the City Council. Please visit City Planning’s Mobility page for more information. The "TDM Update" menu contains instructions for joining the Public Hearing and submitting written comments, a new fact sheet, and the sign-up form for project updates.

Interested in Historic Preservation |
|
Join us for Los Angeles City Planning's upcoming Mills Act Program workshop on Aug. 8, 2022 at 6 p.m. The Mills Act Historical Property Contract Program has served as Los Angeles's primary financial incentive for historic preservation since 1996, offering property tax savings for owners who invest in the rehabilitation and restoration of historic buildings.
City Planning has completed a comprehensive assessment of the City’s Mills Act Program to consider the future of the program and analyze its sustainability, fiscal impact, management needs, and equity outcomes. The program assessment will inform policy recommendations from City Planning to the City Council on options to improve the administration of the program, expand participation in communities with historic disinvestment, and increase capacity for new Mills Act applications. The full report is available online.
PROVIDE YOUR INPUT
City Planning recently hosted an opportunity for public feedback at the July 21, 2022 Cultural Heritage Commission meeting. The next opportunity to find out more about report findings will be at the upcoming Aug. 8 workshop. Public input is important prior to preparing policy recommendations to the City Council. Staff will be available by phone, email, or at the Aug. 8 workshop to receive feedback and answer questions. Feedback can also be provided via the online form.
