The Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) program is the joint program/consortium between a state department of transportation and a state agency of land use development and growth management. For example, the Oregon TGM program is the joint program between the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Department of Land Conservation and Development. The TGM program provides non-regulatory technical assistance and grants funding to local communities. Total funding for the joint TGM program during the 1999-2001 biennium is $11.2 million. Of that, about $9.9 million came from federal transportation funds and the remaining $1.3 million is from state general funds. The TGM program offers four main services to Oregon communities: 1) grants to local governments; 2) Quick Response Team; 3) smart development code assistance; and 4) educational outreach.(See TGM Grants, TGM Consultants, TGM Code Assistance, and TGM Outreach Program.)
