LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 607, as amended, Ducheny. Imperial County Transportation
Commission.
Existing law establishes various local entities to carry out
transportation functions within their respective areas of
jurisdiction.
This bill would create the Imperial County Transportation
Commission and would provide that the commission is the successor
agency to the Imperial Valley Association of Governments. The bill
would establish the composition of the governing board of the
commission and enact provisions relative to the administration of the
commission. The bill would require the commission to prepare a
short-range transportation plan that includes the development and
approval of a 3- to 5-year transportation improvement program. The
bill would also make the commission responsible for administering
funds deposited in the local transportation fund and for preparing a
short-range transit plan, as specified.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.
