5.50.150 Credit for programs implemented prior to the base year.

Employers with CTR Programs in place at the time of the initial employer survey may receive an inherent credit. “Inherent credit” means that an employer will not be required to reduce their VMT and SOV levels by the entire applicable percentage reduction targets, because they may have already implemented CTR programs prior to the base year of 1992. Affected employers will be inherently credited for their prior CTR achievements insofar as meeting the required VMT and SOV goals for an applicable target year. Affected employers shall be responsible for submitting adequate documentation to the county which demonstrates to the satisfaction of the county the amount of the inherent credit. This inherent credit will be applied to the employer’s SOV and VMT goals for the target year under consideration. Even in cases where an inherent credit is received for prior TDM efforts, an affected employer shall not be exempt from submitting a CTR program. (Sec. 14 of Ord. 1993-01-21)
