COUNCIL STUDY SESSION
ORANGE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION 20-YEAR PLAN
Mayor Young briefly reviewed efforts pursued since 1984 by City officials
in Orange County to solve the county's growing transportation problems.
He indicated cities and various agencies within the County were again
considering the imposition of an additional sales tax for transportation
purposes, but that before such a proposal were to be submitted to the
voters the projects to be funded must be specified, and a majority of the
cities representing a majority of the population in agreement to placing
the issue on the ballot.
Stan Oftelie, Director, Orange County Transportation Commission, outlined
the reasons for the short fall in transportation dollars, and enumerated
the factors perceived by the Commission to be essential to voter approval
of additional transportation funds. Oftelie outlined the schedule for
placement of the issue on the ballot, and responded to Councilmembers'
questions.
Joyce Amerson, Michael Betts, and Kim Schultz, of the Transportation staff
and David Grosse, Executive Director, Public Works Agency reviewed the
City's priority transportation projects proposed for inclusion in the.
Commission's 20-Year Plan.
The Mayor requested Councilmembers review the Plan, and advise the staff
of any specific projects which should be included. Councilmember McGuigan
specifically requested that the improvement of MacFadden between Harbor
Blvd. and Euclid be designated a priority project by Santa Ana.
