INTRODUCTION WRT CHAPTER 1: INTROCUTION INTRODUCTION Project Initiation The Euclid & Market Land Use and Mobility Plan has been initiated through the TransNet Smart Growth Incentive Program (SGIP) which is administered through SANDAG (San Diego Association of Governments), the regional planning agency that encompasses the City of San Diego. The agency allocates funds received from TransNet transportation tax revenues for transportation-related infrastructure improvements and planning efforts that support smart growth development. The Euclid & Market Village Master Plan was awarded to the City of San Diego through the 2009-2010 fiscal year funding cycle with the intention that the development surrounding the Euclid Avenue Trolley stop would serve as a model for integrating land use and transportation and smart growth development. SANDAG previously identified the Euclid & Market area as a potential “Community Center” in the regional Smart Growth Concept Map, updated in 2008. This place type is described as an area that contains housing within walking/ biking distance of transit station, low to mid-rise residential, office, and commercial buildings that draw from nearby communities and neighborhoods, and is served by high frequency transit.
