8. Feedback from the TAG on goal options 8 Support for decoupling the state and local goals and targets Strong support for Option 2 from local jurisdictions Some will go with Option 1 and some with Option 3 Expressing goals as increases rather than decreases is preferred (nDAR vs. DAR)

9. CTR Board Discussion and Decision 9

10. 10 Target 1: nDAR X percent Target 2: VMT – 18 % reduction Target 3: GHG – 18% reduction (based on VMT) Proposed for Board Decision 9/26/2014

11. To start, some definitions Proportion, percentage of y1 / 100 27 / 100 = 27% nDAR Non drive alone rate (Percentage of travelers using modes other than driving alone) 11 Change of y2 - y1 33 - 27 = increase of 6 Percent change, percentage change ((y2 - y1) / y1) * 100 ((33-27) / 27) * 100 = 22.2% increase

Four options to set non Drive Alone Rate target: LowMediumAspirational 33% nDAR42% nDAR67% nDAR Based on achieving the same numerical increase of 6 percentage points aligned with Results WA, starting in 2007/2008 Based on achieving the total percentage change of 23% aligned with Results WA, starting in 2007/2008 Assumes that the CTR program worksites take on a goal to achieve 33% nDAR goal for 40% of commuters, rather than the current market of 20%) Based on Executive Order 13-04 Results WA 40% nDAR Current CTR nDAR 36.4% 13

20. Target 2: VMT – 18 % Reduction Reduce the state’s annual per capita vehicle miles traveled by 18 percent by 2020 (RCW 47.01.440 – state VMT goals) VMT 2007/8 = 10.9 miles per person one-way to work VMT 2019/20 target = 8.9 20

21. Target 3: GHG – based on VMT Reduce the state’s greenhouse- gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 (RCW 70.235.020 – state GHG goals) Reduce daily GHG (lbs) per employee by 18% (if tied to VMT) (may need further exploration) 21

24. Board expectations for local targets 24 Option 1 expectations –Continued flexibility in individual employer target-setting –Six percentage point increase or 23 percent increase? Will align with state target decision 20% baseline + 6 points = 26% target 20% + 23% = 24.6% target 50% + 6 points = 56% target 50% + 23% = 61.5%

25. Board expectations for local targets 25 Option 2 expectations for local target setting –Do no worse –Demonstrate integration with local plans and goals –Develop targets tied to local plans and goals –Work with WSDOT to develop local targets Option 3 principles –Demonstrate relevance to local plans and goals –Ensure that goals and targets can be measured –Work with WSDOT to develop local goals and targets

26. Next steps 26 Do we really want to call it nDAR? –Non SOV rate? –Commute alternatives rate (CAR)? –Alternative mode share? –Efficient mode share? –Luke Skywalker mode share? WSDOT technical assistance for local target development CTR Board’s funding policy Program measurement
