Peter Verdoorn, Executive Director RE: San Joaquin County Local Transportation/Air Quality Improvement Plan Attached is the San Joaquin County Local Transportation/Air Quality Improvement Plan. This document has been created at the direction of the San Joaquin County Council of Governments. The plan will: • Build passenger rail service in San Joaquin County to improve air quality. • Repair local roads and streets. • Reduce congestion on area streets and highways. • Build overpasses or underpasses at railroad crossings. Mandate local developer fees. • Create a regional growth management program. This twenty year plan will be taken to voters in November. To maximize this County's share of state and federal funds as well as local developer fees, voters will decide whether to join 17 of California's counties in using the sales tax for transportation purposes. This plan must first be approved by the Stockton City Council plus three other city councils in San Joaquin County. It must then be approved by two-thirds of the membership of the San Joaquin Local Transportation Authority (the COG). A survey of San Joaquin County citizens conducted by the Associated Chambers of Commerce was used as the blueprint for the Plan. The Plan was then prepared by the Expenditure Plan Advisory Group representing the professional staff of the cities, the County, Caltrans, and SMTD. The COG Board is looking €or comments on the San Joaquin County Local Transportation/Air Quality Improvement Plan. Please contact COG staff at the above address with your comments or call Andrew Chesley or Steve Dial of COG staff with comments or questions. 0 COUNTY OF SAN JOAOUIN 0 CiTIES OF S'FOCKTON IOD.
