The PATH program is one of three broad programs developed for SCAG’s $246 million REAP 2.0 Program. The PATH program will provide $89 million in grant funding through a competitive evaluation process for projects with transformative and significant beneficial impacts accelerating infill development that facilitates housing supply, choice, and affordability; affirmatively furthering fair housing; and reducing vehicle miles traveled.
Following the Regional Council’s approval of the PATH program guidelines on November 3, 2022, SCAG has drafted the PATH program application template and is seeking input. All stakeholders who live or work in the SCAG 6-County region (Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties) are encouraged to review the draft application and provide input.
The tentative review schedule includes the following meetings:
February 2, 2023 – The Community, Economic, and Human Development Committee (CEHD) is set to consider recommending the Regional Council adopt and authorize release of the PATH Program calls using the application once the public outreach has been completed.
March 2, 2023 – The Regional Council is set to consider the application template with all public input received and authorize the PATH Program calls. Comments received by February 13th will be included in the agenda item.
All written comments should be sent to:
