The OCTA Board of Directors (Board) approved the OC Go Next 10 Delivery Plan (Next 10 Plan) on November 14, 2016, to set priorities and funding commitments over a ten-year period from fiscal year (FY) 2016-17 through FY 2025-26. This comprehensive and balanced plan was developed to ensure that the promises made in the 30 year OC Go Transportation Investment Plan (OC Go Plan) can continue to be delivered in concert with changes in economic conditions and revenue projections.
On October 26, 2020, the Board received the 2020 OC Go sales tax forecast of $11.6 billion (through 2041), which reflects a $1.8 billion decrease from the 2019 forecast due to the economic impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. To address the substantial decrease in M2 sales tax revenue, on December 14, 2020, staff presented delivery options for Board consideration and discussion. The Board directed staff to maintain progress on near-term projects, ready additional projects for delivery, and optimize the level of debt financing that would be required to support the OC Go Plan as promised to the voters. In addition, the Board approved a shift of the Next 10 Plan timeframe to FY 2020-21 through FY 2029-30. While the Next 10 Plan sets a course for accelerated delivery through FY 2029-30, it also ensures that the entire OC Go Plan of projects and program commitments can be delivered through 2041.
On April 12, 2021, the Board approved the 2020 Next 10 Plan. As a result of OCTA’s strategic planning to date, the 2020 update continues to demonstrate that the OC Go Plan remains deliverable.
