Title
State Legislative Status Report
Overview
An update is provided on the state’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. An OPPOSE position is recommended on two bills related to creating a new construction authority to extend the Gold Line into San Bernardino County. An OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED position is recommended on a bill that would add vehicle miles traveled reduction requirements to the transportation planning process.
Recommendation(s)
A. Adopt an OPPOSE position on AB 2011 (Holden, D-Pasadena) and on SB 1390 (Portantino, D-Glendale), which would each create a new construction authority to extend the Gold Line from the City of Montclair to the Ontario International Airport.
B. Adopt an OPPOSE UNLESS AMENDED position on SB 1363 (Allen, D-Santa Monica), which would require metropolitan planning organizations to meet vehicle miles traveled reduction targets as part of the regional transportation plan.
