Local Traffic Mitigation Fee Program Project

Project Overview

The Local Traffic Mitigation Fee (LTMF) program, administered by the County, was updated in 2017 and includes a number of future improvement and safety projects. In addition to the Ridge Road/Rough and Ready Highway Improvement Project, future projects scheduled for construction outside this 5-year CIP may include:  

    Shoulder Widening and Safety Improvement Projects – Countywide.

    Roadway improvement projects- Countywide

The Mitigation Fee Act, also known as California Assembly Bill 1600 (AB 1600) or Government Code Section 66000 et seq., governs imposing development impact fees in California. The Mitigation Fee Act requires that all local agencies in California, including counties, follow basic principles when instituting impact fees as condition of new development.
