The goal of the Mobility Element Update (MEU) is to improve safe mobility and increase multi-modal alternatives for residents, visitors, and employees of all ages and abilities. T he current plan was adopted in 2010 and last amended in 2016. Since then, significant policy changes at federal, state, county, and municipal levels motivate an update to the Mobility Element. Most importantly, the County adopted a Bicycle Plan Element in 2020, adopted a new Land Development Ordinance in 2024 and is planning to adopt an updated Complete Streets Policy in 2025. Policy and regulatory differences between these documents and the 2010 Mobility Element are particularly important to resolve. Current work to plan for Congestion Mitigation, Air Quality, Trails, Complete Streets, and Vision Zero must be further developed and incorporated into a new Master Plan Element.
