Title
SUBSTITUTE: Amending Section 16.03 of the Madison General Ordinances related to Transportation Demand Management to clarify Transportation Demand Management procedures, including broadening applicability.
Body
DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS: Madison adopted a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) ordinance on December 15th, 2022. The ordinance went into effect June 15th, 2023. The ordinance does not address some uses. This amendment attempts to ensure a more equal application of TDM requirements by specifically including additional uses in the section and applying the TDM program to uses not listed within the section. An exemption for City-owned property has been added. Subsection 8 has been removed and reserved because Subsection 4 and Subsection 8 were duplicative in title, both being entitled “Exemptions.”

The Substitute removes a suggested exemption in 16.03(4), as recommended by the Transportation Commission.
