Summary

Existing law establishes various local entities to carry out transportation functions within their respective areas of jurisdiction. This bill would enact the Monterey-Salinas Transit District Act. The bill, operative July 1, 2010, would dissolve the Monterey-Salinas Transit Joint Powers Agency and create the Monterey-Salinas Transit District within Monterey County to succeed to the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of the agency. The bill would establish a board of directors to govern the district. The act would provide that upon the dissolution of the Monterey-Salinas Transit Joint Powers Agency its employees shall become employees of the district. The bill would authorize the district to hire independent staff and contract with public entities to implement the provisions of the act. The bill would authorize the district to raise moneys by issuing bonds payable from revenues of any facility or enterprise acquired or constructed by the district. The bill would establish other powers and duties of, and conditions for membership in, the district. By imposing new duties on a local agency, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
