SANDAG provides the regional framework to connect our land use to our transportation systems, manage our population growth, preserve our environment, and sustain our economic prosperity.

 

Comprehensive Land Use and Regional Growth Projects

Regional Comprehensive Plan
 

Adopted in July 2004 and based on smart growth principles, the Regional Comprehensive Plan provides a blueprint for managing our region's growth while preserving natural resources and limiting urban sprawl.

   
Sustainable Communities Strategy
 

The Sustainable Communities Strategy will show how regional greenhouse gas reduction targets will be achieved through development patterns, transportation infrastructure investments, and/or transportation measures or policies determined to be feasible.

   
Smart Growth Concept Map
 

The Smart Growth Concept Map contains almost 200 existing, planned, or potential smart growth locations. Use our interactive map to locate Smart Growth areas around the region.

   
TransNet Smart Growth Incentive Program
 

The 2009 TransNet-funded Smart Growth Incentive Program allows SANDAG to use its transportation funding decisions to encourage local governments to adopt smart growth planning principles.

   
Smart Growth Tool Box
 

A key goal of RCP Implementation is to provide incentives and assistance to local member agencies to promote smart growth development in the areas identified on the Smart Growth Concept Map.

   
Pilot Smart Growth Incentive Program
 

In 2005, SANDAG launched a pilot incentive funding program to promote projects that integrate smart growth land uses and transportation facilities.

   
Smart Growth Visualization Tools and Photo Library
 

Visualization tools can help illustrate how communities can be transformed by smart growth development and transit-friendly design. In addition, photos of existing smart growth projects can showcase local success stories.

   
Smart Growth Design Guidelines
 

The Smart Growth Design Guidelines are a valuable resource that show how good design can contribute to the quality of life in the San Diego region.

   
Regional Comprehensive Plan Performance Monitoring
 

Monitoring the Plan's implementation and the region's quality of life is important. See how the region has performed to date.

   
Community-Based Outreach Mini-Grant Program
 

The SANDAG Community-Based Outreach Mini-Grant Program encourages diverse, inclusive, and active public participation from stakeholders who may not traditionally be involved in the regional public policy planning process.
