California Legislature—2015–16 Regular Session

Assembly BillNo. 906


Introduced by Assembly Member Cooper

February 26, 2015


An act to amend Section 102100.9 of the Public Utilities Code, relating to transit.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

AB 906, as introduced, Cooper. Sacramento Regional Transit District.

Existing law provides for the creation of the Sacramento Regional Transit District, with specified powers and duties relative to the provision of public transit services and governed by a board of directors. Existing law provides for appointment of directors by member entities, and also provides that a city or county that is not annexed to the district may appoint at least one director as a participating entity if it enters into an agreement with the district that provides, among other things, for payment of the participating entity’s proportionate share of the district’s cost to provide rail or other districtwide transit services. Existing law, in that regard, provides for the proportionate share of the City of Elk Grove to be determined pursuant to a specified agreement between the city and the district.

This bill would delete the reference to the specified agreement, and instead provide that the City of Elk Grove’s proportionate share shall be deemed fully satisfied through the district’s receipt from the Sacramento Transportation Authority of specified transportation-related transaction and use tax revenues.

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

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