BILL NUMBER:  SB 1141
  VETOED	DATE: 09/25/2010




To the Members of the California State Senate:

I am returning Senate Bill 1141 without my signature.

SB 1141 makes public entities ineligible for State Aeronautics
Account money if they choose not to create a countywide land use
bureaucracy.

I am concerned that this bill is unnecessary and subversive of local
control over land use decisions.  Existing law provides local
officials sufficient land use tools to protect their airports from
encroaching development and to protect the public.

In effect, the bill fiscally punishes those local governments who
believe they can make good land use decisions on their own accord
without countywide airport land use commissions.

For these reasons I cannot sign this bill.

Sincerely,



Arnold Schwarzenegger
