2021 Regional Plan Draft

Draft 2021 Regional Plan

The 2021 Regional Plan is a 30-year plan that considers how we will grow, where we will live, and how we will move around the region. It combines the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS), and Regional Comprehensive Plan. As such, the 2021 Regional Plan must comply with specific state and federal mandates, including an SCS, per Senate Bill 375 (Steinberg, 2008), that achieves greenhouse gas emission reduction targets set by the California Air Resources Board; compliance with federal civil rights requirements (Title VI); and environmental justice considerations, air quality conformity, and a public participation process.
