That the City Council:

 

1)                     Approves the attached Resolution in support of Proposition 69, which is on the June 2018 ballot, and aims to support SB-1 (Beall) and prevent new transportation funds from being diverted for non-transportation purposes; and

SUMMARY

 

Staff requests that Council approve a resolution supporting Proposition 69, the June 2018 constitutional amendment to prevent new transportation funds from being diverted for non-transportation purposes, and opposing the proposed November ballot proposition that would repeal the new SB-1 transportation funds and make it more difficult to raise state and local transportation funds in the future.
