92-197 ORIGINAL
RESOLUTION NO. 92R-197
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ANAHEIM ENDORSING
PROPOSITION 156 ON THE NOVEMBER 3,
1992 BALLOT
WHEREAS, rail transportation, as compared with
automobile transportation of comparable numbers of passengers,
results in cleaner air, reduced energy consumption and congestion
on already overcrowded streets and highways, and increased
transportation opportunities for those who cannot drive; and,
WHEREAS, in 1989, the State Legislature provided for
three one-billion-dollar ($1,000,000,000) rail transportation
bond measures on the ballot as part of the eighteen-billion,
five-hundred-million-dollar ($18,500,000,000) Transportation
Blueprint for the Twenty-First Century; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 108, the Passenger Rail and Clean
Air Bond Act of 1990, which the voters approved in June, 1990,
was the first of those three measures; and
WHEREAS, the second one-billion-dollar ($1,000,000,000)
bond measure will appear on the November 3, 1992 ballot; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 156, the Passenger Rail and Clean
Air Bond Act of 1992, would provide one billion dollars
($1,000,000,000) to improve and expand inter-city, commuter and
light-rail transit throughout California; and
WHEREAS, the Act would benefit this region by providing
funds vitally needed to improve inter-city and commuter service
on the Los Angeles-Orange-San Diego County corridor; and
WHEREAS, failure to approve the bond measure would
ORIGINAL
cause "county minimum" transportation funding from the State to
Orange County to be reduced by seventy-four million dollars
($74,000,000), placing much-needed local transportation
improvement projects at risk; and
WHEREAS, California's overall transportation funding
would be dramatically reduced if the bond measure fails to be
approved, jeopardizing hundreds of local projects and causing
major re-programming and delays in both highway and rail
transportation programs; and
WHEREAS, passage of this bond Act and the consequent
construction of transportation improvements will create tens of
thousands of jobs;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of
the city of Anaheim as follows: that the City Council of the
City of Anaheim endorses Proposition 156, the Passenger Rail and
Clean Air Bond Act of 1992, on the November 3, 1992 ballot.
