Minutes - San Leandro City Council Meeting - September 8, 1992 ' Page - 20 - 8. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. Matter of Trip Reduction/Travel Demand Management Program. This being the time and place for the Public Hearing on the above matter, Roy Parker, Transportation Coordinator, said it was recommended that the City Council adopt the Trip Reduction Ordinance. He said Proposition 111 mandated the implementation of an Employer Based Trip Reduction/Travel Demand Program. He discussed the seven minimum requirements of the program and discussed the DFSI Committee's work in developing the ordinance. Council Member Kerr asked if the program was funded by Gas Tax funds. Mr. Parker said the program receives funds from AB 434, and the Congestion Management Agency is the overall Program Coordinator. He said AB 434 reduces the funds the City must contribute to the Congestion Management Authority. He said this was a coordinated effort among the Transportation Authority, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, and the Congestion Management Authority. Council Member Corbett asked if the Chamber of Commerce was represented on the DFSI Committee. Mr. Parker said members include the Chamber, Manufacturer's Association, homeowners associations, and citizens. He said the 48 employers of 100 or more people have been kept fully advised of the program and proposed ordinance. The Hearing was then opened to the public.
