Bicycling and walking are <br />recognized as ways to reduce congestion, oil consumption, air pollution, noise <br />pollution, and impacts on climate change as well as improving mobility options <br />and providing opportunities for healthy exercise. The goals of these planning <br />documents are consistent with the goals, policies and recommendations <br />outlined in the 2018 update of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan focused <br />on providing a balanced transportation system for the City that meets the <br />needs of all road users: people walking, biking, rolling, and driving. <br />Conformance with Funding Requirements <br />The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan conforms with the California Active <br />Transportation Program. in 2013, California Senate Bill 99 and Assembly <br />Bill 101 were signed by Governor Brown creating the Active Transportation <br />Program (ATP). Administered by the California Transportation Commission, <br />ATP consolidates existing federal and state transportation programs, including <br />the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), and State Safe Routes to <br />School (SR2S), into a single program. Funding is distributed competitively at <br />the statewide and MPO level. <br />The most recent ATP guidelines do not require applicants to have a Bicycle <br />and Pedestrian Master Plan that meet certain standards per the former Bicycle <br />Transportation Account (BTA) program, however a plan that adheres to the <br />grant program guidelines will help the City prioritize the most competitive <br />projects for funding requests (an ATP compliance checklist is provided in <br />Appendix C). Meeting these guidelines may also help the City advance project <br />implementation through Transportation Development Act (TDA), Measure B, <br />and other funding sources. <br />148
