California Legislature—2013–14 Regular Session

Assembly Bill No. 466

Introduced by Assembly Member Quirk-Silva

February 19, 2013

An act to amend Section 99214 of the Public Utilities Code, relating to public transit.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

AB 466, as introduced, Quirk-Silva. Public transportation: local transportation fund.

Existing law provides for the allocation by the designated transportation planning agency of funds in a county’s local transportation fund derived from 1⁄4% of the sales tax to transit operators for public transportation purposes and, in certain cases, to cities and counties for street and road purposes. Existing law defines “transportation planning agency” for these purposes.

This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to this definitional provision.

Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no. State-mandated local program: no.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
