Minutes of June 17, 2005 (pdf, 40 KB)

A Consolidated Work Program for Implementing and Refining the Bay Area's Smart-Growth Vision (pdf, 578 KB)

The proposed work program responds to a JPC direction that its member agencies organize together in order to pursue integrative regional planning.  The program is the core part of a proposed report to the State Legislature on functional consolidation and provides the basis and context for an application for California Regional Blueprint Planning Program funds. The work program document includes an appendix on incentives.  This appendix incorporates discussion items deferred from previous JPC agendas.

Legislation Referencing the Joint Policy Committee (pdf, 175 KB)

This item was deferred from June 17th. An addendum updates the status of the legislation since the original June memorandum.

The JPC in Relation to Pre-existing ABAG, BAAQMD and MTC Planning Committees (pdf, 293 KB)

The Chair of the JPC has requested a report from the Executive Director of ABAG, the Executive Director of MTC, BAAQMD's Executive Officer and the Regional Planning Program Director on how the JPC's mandate relates to the mandates of existing regional planning committees at each of the three member agencies.  This memorandum responds.  This item has been deferred from previous meetings.

JPC Meeting Frequency

At its meeting on December 17, 2004, the JPC agreed to continue meeting monthly through June, 2005, at which time the meeting frequency would be reviewed.  This item was not acted upon in June as there was not a quorum present.  If the Committee is inclined to reduce meeting frequency, staff recommends that this not commence until 2006.
