This meeting will introduce the relatively new policy adopted by City of San Jose to proactively support its “Smart Growth” developments. This traffic impact policy allows for "overriding" traffic level of service impacts in transit corridors and special infill development areas, and at the same time requires development projects to construct improved facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit users.

Join us at this meeting to learn from the San Jose experience. Hans Larsen will share with us the salient features of the policy and how it is facilitating transit-oriented development and revitalization of Downtown San Jose.

GUEST SPEAKER

Hans Larsen, Deputy Director, Department of Transportation, City of San Jose.
