	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1462, Torrico  State Highway Route 84.
   Existing law authorizes a city or county in which a planned
transportation facility was to be located on State Highway Route 238
in Alameda County to develop and file with the California
Transportation Commission a local alternative transportation program
that addresses transportation problems and opportunities, and
provides for the use of revenues from the sales of excess properties
acquired for the planned state facility in order to fund the local
alternative program, but limits the use of revenues from excess
property sales to highway purposes. Existing law provides that the
commission may not approve a local alternative program under these
provisions after July 1, 2010.
   This bill would extend the applicability of these provisions to a
specified portion of State Highway Route 84 in Alameda County. The
bill would limit the use of revenues from excess property sales to
state highway purposes.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 14528.5 of the Government Code is amended to
read:
   14528.5.  (a) To resolve local transportation problems resulting
from the infeasibility of planned state transportation facilities on
State Highway Route 238 and State Highway Route 84 between existing
State Highway Routes 238 and 880, the city or county in which either
of the planned facilities were to be located, acting jointly with the
transportation planning agency having jurisdiction over the city or
county, may develop and file with the commission a local alternative
transportation improvement program that addresses transportation
problems and opportunities in the county which were to be served by
the planned facilities. Priorities for funding in the local
alternative program shall go to projects in the local voter-approved
transportation sales tax measure.
   (b) The commission shall have the final authority regarding the
content and approval of the local alternative transportation
improvement program. The commission shall not approve any local
alternative transportation improvement program submitted under this
section after July 1, 2010.
   (c) All proceeds from the sale of the excess properties, less any
reimbursements due to the federal government and all costs incurred
in the sale of those excess properties, shall be allocated by the
commission to fund the approved local alternative transportation
improvement program and shall not be subject to Sections 188 and
188.8 of the Streets and Highways Code. The proceeds shall be used
only for state highway purposes.
   (d) This section does not apply to those highways that are in the
National System of Interstate and Defense Highways.
   (e) This section applies only to State Highway Routes 238 and 84.
