          SUMMARY:


          This bill consolidates local transportation agencies currently  
          under the purview of the San Bernardino Associated Governments  
          (SANBAG), as the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority,  








                                                                    SB 1305  


                                                                    Page  2





          to be governed by the same membership as prescribed for SANBAG:  
          five members of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors;  
          one mayor or city council member from each incorporated city in  
          the county; and one non-voting member appointed by the Governor.


          FISCAL EFFECT:


          Negligible fiscal impact.


          COMMENTS:


          Purpose. The consolidation set forth in SB 1305 will create an  
          entity that is similar to consolidated transportation entities  
          in other counties, such as the Los Angeles County Metropolitan  
          Transportation Authority and the Orange County Transportation  
          Authority.
