DATE: November 28, 2006
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF THE 2006 TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT
PLAN
DEPARTMENT: Administrative Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt the 2006 Transportation Development Plan. The City Council reviewed and
discussed this plan at its Study Session held on November 7, 2006.
Since July 1992, Santa Clarita Transit has been one of the fastest-growing public transportation
providers in Los Angeles County. Santa Clarita Transit provides fixed -route local and commuter
express bus service, as well as dial -a -ride paratransit services.
The Transportation Development Plan (TDP) Update projects future service needs and identifies
a corresponding financial plan to meet such needs. The TDP encompasses a ten-year period,
covering Santa Clarita Transit's fiscal years 2006 to 2015 and evaluates service needs on a
regional basis. Rapidly developing Santa Clarita Valley communities in unincorporated areas are
also included. The TDP provides the mechanism for Santa Clarita Transit's ongoing planning
activities and serves as the document by which the City can communicate its service plans and
financial needs to the various funding jurisdictions.
Preparation of the TDP commenced in October 2005 and was completed in early November
2006, in collaboration with Michael Fajans and Asscociates.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
AN P
FISCAL IMPACT
The adoption of the 2006 Transportation Development Plan (TDP) will not have any direct fiscal

included in the annual budgeting process.
