RESOLUTION NO. 2075
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, REQUEST-
ING THE STATE LEGISLATURE TO AMEND THE
COLLIER-UNRUH LOCAL TRANSPORTATION DE-
VELOPMENT ACT.
WHEREAS, the Collier -Unruh Local Transportation Develop-
ment Act was adopted by the State Legislature and approved by the Gover-
nor of the State of California on July 18, 1963; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of E1 Segundo, in an
endeavor to avoid future use of property taxes for major street construc-
tion, had previously gone on record as approving in principle, the above
act, because it provides for a one cent increase in gasoline taxes to be
used for the construction of County roads and City streets; and
WHEREAS, the Act provides that the recipient of funds appor-
tioned from the increased Gas Tax, shall expend for construction and
rights of way on the Select System, an additional amount which shall be
derived from sources other than Highway Users Tax Funds, and these
required amounts known as "Matching Funds ", are to be 50%0 of the appor-
tionment for the fiscal years 196364, 1965-66, 196667, and increasing
on a graduated scale to 100% of the apportionment in the fiscal year 1969 -
70; and
WHEREAS, the expenditure of these required "Matching Funds"
will work a hardship on many cities, since these funds in a great part will
come from the General Funds of the cities, and the expenditure of these
funds may diminish the amounts which can be used for maintenance and
construction of local streets; and may in some cases, cause cities to
raise their property taxes in order to provide sufficient funds for the
"Matching Funds."
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the Collier -Unruh Local Transportation
Development Act be amended at the next Session of the State Legislature
to eliminate or to make less burdensome the "Matching Fund" provisions
as now embodied in the Act.
