TAXES
WI~EREAS, true State highway needs for the Southern Counties
group, based on the urgency of traffic demands and the provision of
equal State-wide traffic services, are in excess of 60 per cent. of
the State-wide total; and
WHEREAS, the continuing critical traffic congestion, accidents,
and fatalities in the Southern Counties area must be immediately
alleviated; and
WHEREkS, the future economic and sociological growth and
development of the 13 Southern Counties is directly related to adequacy
of construction of a highway and freeway system; and
WHEREAS, based on the pertinent indices of population, vehicle
registration, and assessed evaluation, the 13 Southern Counties provide
in excess of 60 per cent. of the State-wide highway revenue; and
WHEREkS, the obsolete Mayo-Breed Formula presently provides for
an allocation of only 55 per cent. of the State-wide Highway and
Freeway Construction Funds to the South, which allocation curtails the
budgeting of urgently needed projects and precludes a program of
equitable future facilities in this area;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the City Council of the
City of Santa Ana endorses and urges the adoption of a legislative
program to amend the Mayo-Breed Formula to allocate a minimum of
60 per cent. of the State Highway Construction Funds in the Southern
Group.
