2 <br />The full transportation options report also includes cost and traditional revenue <br />forecasts for each of the four (4) options and revenue forecasts for two local revenue <br />sources, '/2 cent sales tax and an extra $10 vehicle registration fee, based on comments <br />submitted on the Alternatives Analysis. The full report can be downloaded under 2035 <br />LRTP Options at www.dchcmpo.org . <br />The MPO Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) and technical staff will evaluate the <br />four (4) transportation options and consider public input to develop the Preferred Option <br />which the TAC will adopt as the Draft 2035 LRTP. The TAC expects to approve the <br />Draft 2035 LRTP in early December. The Draft 2035 LRTP will then go through an <br />evaluation and public input process to ensure that the plan meets air quality conformity <br />regulations. <br />The LPA will present this information to the Orange Unified Transportation Board <br />(OUTBoard) at its meeting on November 19, and the OUTBoard will develop <br />recommended comments for Orange County to submit to the MPO TAC. The BOCC <br />will consider endorsing the OUTBoard recommendation at its meeting on December 1. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no direct financial impact associated with this item, <br />although implementation of many of the alternatives will require new local and state <br />funding. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board receive the report on <br />the 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan Transportation Options. <br />
