Plan Implementation, Monitoring, and Review Objectives could still be met. If further transportation improvements are necessary beyond what are in the TVTP, the jurisdiction should specify how they will be funded. The Action Plans for Routes of Regional Significance will be based upon adopted General Plan land uses, the existing road network, and planned improvements to the - network. Consistency with the Action Plans must be established for any changes to the General Plan that may significantly reduce the ability of the facility to meet the Traffic Service Objectives. The Regional Committee will be responsible for establishing - the type and size of ~menament that will require review by the Regional Committee and the process for implementing this review. Approval of a General Plan Amendment found to be inconsistent with the adopted Action Plans may render the jurisdiction _ ineligible for Local Street Maintenance Improvement Funds from the CCTA. Consistency with the Action Plans can be achieved by revising the proposed amend- ment, adopting local actions to offset impacts to the Route of Regional Significance, or Council or Board denial of the amendment. Growth Management Tools. The TVTP is not intended to be a land use control document. While the plan is .based on a set of growth assumptions, the plan should not be interpreted as limiting growth to the assumed levels. Nevertheless, the plan does establish Transportation Service Objectives, which may indirectly influence growth rates. Growth beyond what is assumed herein may occur provided the TSOs are met. If there are TSO violations, or projected TSO violations, in a Tri-Valtey jurisdiction, - then that jurisdiction can either (a) implement transportation improvements (e.g., mad widening) to correct the TSO deficiency on that affected network segment, or (b) implement other measures intended to result in measurable improvements to TSOs on -- the Routes of Regional Significance network and contribute to significant improvements in air quality. Failing this, the jurisdiction can refer the problem to the TVTC for joint resolution. In the event that the TVTC cannot resolve the violation to -- the mutual satisfaction of all members, the jurisdiction may modify the TSO standard, but only if other jurisdictions are not physically impacted. The tools and procedures for conducting General Plan updates in Contra Costa County and analyzing proposed General Plan amendments will be the same as those used in preparing the Growth Management Elements. If the specific project or policy changes _ are large enough to meet requirements established by the region in its adopted Action Plan, the jurisdiction considering the Plan amendment must submit the amendment to the Regional Committee for evaluation of its impact on the ability to achieve Action Plan objectives. The Growth Management Program directs the RTPCs to evaluate proposed amenclments only in relation to issues affecting Action Plan success and consistency. It will be the responsibility of the jurisdiction considering the Amendment to either: 1. Demonstrate that the amendment will not violate Action Plan policies or the ability to meet Action Plan Traffic Service Objectives; or Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. 237
