CONGESTION MANAGEMENT AGENCY/COMMITTEE REPORT (05.39)
Mayor Benjamin discussed the CMA meeting. The TAC, Technical Advisory Committee,
reported to the Cities that San Jose wanted to put monies into street resurfacing. With the
Cities' desire to have 65% of monies going to Measure A and 35% going to non-Measure A,
the Vasona Corridor Project would stand to loose $37,000,000 in funding. Cities then
determined that the 65/35 split might be more appropriate in future years. Mr. O'Laughlin
mentioned the need for support with the Vasona Corridor at this critical time of assigning
priorities to the various regional projects.
ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Mr. Attaway, seconded by Mr. O'Laughlin, to adjourn this meeting at 8:28 p.m.
Carried unanimously.
