• TR1-6 states that the requirement is for new residential developments, whereas TDM2-7 specifies new and substantial developments, and CAP Appendix D clarifies that TDM2-7 should apply to residential developments with 20 units or more. New lower density residential development is highly unlikely to located near a BART station and therefore the threshold of 20+ units is recommended. • TR1-6 is directed toward discounted transit passes with no duration specified, and TDM2-7 promotes transit passes or other transit use incentives for an interim period sufficient to establish transit use. It is recommended that transit passes be provided free of charge to residents (one per unit) for a period of six months. This approach is comparable to a pilot program sponsored by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and AC Transit which was successful in establishing transit use. (See TransLink for TOD Pilot Project, Executive Summary, Exhibit C.) This proposed amendment would add a new chapter to Title 17 entitled Transit Incentive. For added clarity, a reference to this new section would be inserted in Chapter 18.36 (RM Multi-family Residential Districts). 2.
