MEMORANDUM
Date: July 6, 2023 GTS: 210806.06
To: Kevin Harbison (Ravello Holdings)
From: Rawad Hani, GTS
Subject: Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis - Palmdale Residential Development Southeast corner of E. Palmdale Blvd and Hudsonia St (APN: 3023-002-184), Palmdale, CA
This memorandum pertains to the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) screening analysis for the proposed residential development for the parcel APN: 3023-002-184 at southeast corner of E. Palmdale Blvd and Hudsonia St, in the City of Palmdale, Los Angeles County, CA (City). The project consists of 64 single family residences, 63 accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and 64 junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs) on an approximately 20 Acre site.
A VMT analysis has previously evaluated the project using 2016 Southern California Association of Governments’ (SCAG) Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategies (RTP/SCS) travel demand model.
As the project may be offered as an affordable development, this memorandum presents the VMT screening analysis for the 100% affordable scenario/option.
Background & Methodology
On December 28, 2018, the California Office of Administrative Law cleared the revised California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines for use. Among the changes to the guidelines was removal of vehicle delay and level of service from consideration under CEQA. With the adopted guidelines, transportation impacts are to be evaluated based on a project’s effect on vehicle miles traveled (VMT).
While the City is actively working on developing their own guidelines for VMT, at the time of the analysis the City is using the Los Angeles County Public Works – Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) Guidelines - dated July 23, 2020 as a guide in the VMT analysis of development projects.
VMT Screening Analysis
Pursuant to the above mentioned Los Angeles County Public Works – Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) Guidelines of July 23, 2020 (which in turn is in line with Senate Bill 743 Technical Guidance published by the State’s Office of Planning and Research), certain residential projects that further the State’s affordable housing goals are presumed to have less than significant impact on VMT if 100% of the units, excluding manager’s units, are set aside for lower income households.
As such if the project is developed as 100% affordable, it is presumed to have less than significant impact on VMT, further analysis is not required, and a less than significant determination can be made.
APN 3023-002-184, Palmdale CA
Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis
2 Conclusion
Based on the screening criteria noted above, the 100% affordable project is presumed to have less than significant impact on VMT.
