VII
That attached hereto and made a part hereof and marked Exhibit "0" is
a Wanes sheet setting forth the assets and liabilities of the applicants,
as of February 29, 1952, together with an operating statement for the
period January
1, x,951 to December 31, .1951.
VIII
That the fOl1owing conditions exist which are relied upon by applicants,
and by other interested Parties, as justification for the granting of a
Certificett of Public Convenience and Necessity over and along the routes
herein $esooibed:
The city of Anaheim has for some years past strongly felt the need
for a bus transportation service of a more local nature than is presently
afforded. Some four years ago the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce secured the
services of a qualified bus transportation expert to conduct a survey of
the area to determine the feasibility of the establishment of such service.
The conclusion reached was that such a service was a bit premature, and;that
a strictly local operation might not return out of pocket costs. During the
subsequent years the general Anaheim area has developed considerably from
the standpoint of population and industry.,The area to the east of Anaheim
has also grown considerably during the past few years, with most of the
increase in population being between Anaheim and Placentia. Applicants
have, consulted the person who conducted the survey referred to above, and
the opinion obtained was that the routes herein described justified the
establishment of a service at the present time due to the considerable
increase of population. The consultant and applicants believe that the
operation herein proposed will at least pay out of pocket costs within
six months, and that thereafter such operation should result in some profit,
although not large.
As can be noted from Exhibit 0 A", the map, there does not exist at the
present time an east —west bus service through Anaheim. The main bueiness
and shopping district is pr maril7 along Center Street, and applicants
propose to provide a service over the more important Lenght of said street.
The area proposed to be served by the loop on the west end of the line
is now solidly developed with residential units and comprises one of the
important residential sectigns of Anaheim. The area adjacent to Olive Street
between Center Street and La Palma Avenge is likewise completely developed
with residences, and such development extends for several blocks to the east
of Olive Street as well as to the west. While the P?acif1c Electric Railway
Company provides some service along I.os Angeles Street, such service is too
remote and distant from persons residing east of olive Street.
There has been considerable residential development to the east of
Anaheiim, particularly between Ans,hein and Placentia, which 8411 is presently
without public transportation of.any kind. The area trsversed by La J.olia
4
Street is quite solidly built up with people of Mexican extraction, and
some 500 of these pepple are without trancportatior, facilities. The
city of Pl €,centia is of course well develcr,i with indurtry snd.rgsident$,
and these 1.e:ople have no way at the prese :„;.lie to tr:vd:1 'vetwesn Anaheim
and Placentia by public means. From applicalltcs expeac rience in operating
a service between Fullerton and Placentia, while such service is reasonably
well patronized, applicants have developed the fact that the residents of
Placentia would prefer to shop in Anaheim.
Appplicants, after careful study and considerati r, are of the, opinion
that the out of pocket loss for the first six months should not exceed
50 per mile. The round trip mileage for the route proposed herein is 15
and on the basis of 11 trips per day the daily mileage would be 171.6,
resulting in an estimated daily loss on an average of some $8.58. This
would represent a.loss for a six month period of about $1038.48.
Applicants are financially able to absorb such out of pocket loss, and are
willing to do so, and without causing the burden to fail upon the public
in other areas currently being served by them.
Tx
That applicants are informed and believe and upon such information
and belief allege that no common carrier of passengers presently operating
in the area herein described will oppose the application as herein set
forth, and that the proposed service will not conflict with the operation
of any other carrier.
Applicants have provided and delivered a copy of this application to
the Pacific Electric Rally Company at its offices at 610 South Main Street,
Tlos Angeles, California.
Applicants reqoept allege that this application is one which can
be disposed of ex perte an4 without hearing, and respectfully request that
this Honorable Commission 'grant the within application in an ex parte
proceeding.
WHEREFORE, applicants pray that this Honorable Commission make its
order Under section 504 of the Public Utilities Act, declaring that Public
Convenience and Neceesity recirlre that app11(.aats be authorf.zed to operate
a Paaaellgr .tage corporation in accorda7;:e with this application, and that
such autheriv7 granted ex parte
