The average wage of all private workers in Santa Clara County is nearly twice thatof jobs located in Monterey County. The average wage of high tech workers in Santa Clara County is238% higher than the average wage paid by Monterey County employers.Growth Inducement/Economic Development PotentialGrowth inducement is defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as thefostering of economic or population growth, or the construction of new housing. Growth inducementmay result from direct employment, population, or housing growth; secondary or indirect growth; orprovision of new infrastructure that removes obstacles to population growth.The project is located in both urban and rural areas, surrounded by commercial development orfarmland and county parcels. With the development of the proposed station facilities, construction ofa new commuter rail or express bus passenger transportation infrastructure would directly fostereconomic and population growth. The project could help to accommodate the population projected inthe City of Salinas and Monterey County General Plan, who reside in these areas but workelsewhere, by providing efficient public transportation options.The proposed project could have an indirect affect on the local population near the proposed stations.Beneficial impacts to community cohesion and quality of life would also occur for residents andbusinesses near the proposed rail stations or park-and-ride facilities. Residential property valuescould potentially increase slightly near transit stations. Higher density housing and mixed usedevelopments would most likely occur near rail stations, which could provide additional affordablehousing units to the communities.parsons CHAPTER 8: EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES 210
