      In response to concerns about the proposed Town & Country Plan, local businesses, public officials, and residents in Antelope Valley formed the Blue Ribbon Committee with the support of Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. Without its own EIR and proper representation as 45% of the county’s landmass, Antelope Valley was not being provided for. Acting as a consultant for the Blue Ribbon Committee, pointC helped draft solutions to address the Plan’s missing opportunities and reflection of sustainable and needs.

      Using data-driven mapping and sustainable growth principles, pointC worked with the Blue Ribbon Committee and identified three Economic Opportunity Areas in the region. Based on each area’s needs, pointC and the Blue Ribbon Committee drafted solutions focused on the economy, environment, equity, and property rights. With the future of their children and grandchildren in mind, the Committee provided positive and sustainable answers to the challenges faced by the community.

      The Golden State Gateway Coalition (GSGC) I-5 High Occupancy Vehicle and Truck Lanes Project proposes to extend the HOV lanes on the I-5 from the SR-14 Interchange to Parker Road and to incorporate truck climbing lanes from the SR-14 Interchange to Pico Lyons Road. The purpose of the project is to reduce existing and future traffic conditions, reduce air pollution, and improve the operation of this passenger and freight route by constructing HOV and truck climbing lanes.

      In response to the needs of all parties, pointC guided the formation of a partnership between Caltrans and private sector business leaders. It was created to design, fund, and construct this project of national significance. As a testament to this partnership’s success, the Project Approval / Environmental Document (PA/ED) was delivered under budget in nearly half the time under pointC’s lead. pointC worked directly with Caltrans and GSGC, in providing the financial and technical support to Caltrans’s project management. pointC managed a team of experts in shepherding this project through the CEQA and NEPA processes in an expedited time. Working hand in hand with the partnership, pointC developed and implemented the project funding strategy.  Through a combination of public and private sources, this approximately $ 500 million project is fully funded and the first phase (truck lanes) is targeted to begin construction in late 2011.
