Summary

Existing law creates the Monterey-Salinas Transit District to include all of the County of Monterey, with specified powers and duties relative to provision of public transit service. Existing law authorizes the district to issue bonds under the Revenue Bond Law of 1941, payable from revenues of any facility or enterprise to be acquired or constructed by the district. Under that law, issuance of revenue bonds generally requires voter approval, unless an exemption is provided. This bill would revise these provisions. The bill would exempt the district from the requirement to seek voter approval prior to issuing revenue bonds, and would instead authorize those bonds to be issued by a 23 vote of the district's board. The bill would authorize the district to pledge revenues or other moneys available to the district from any source, including a transactions and use tax, to payment of those bonds. The bill would impose a maximum amount of $50,000,000 on revenue bonds that may be issued by the district. The bill would limit use of revenue bonds to a project or projects not located on or adjacent to the former Fort Ord, except as specified, and would require the duration of bonds issued for acquisition of equipment, defined to include vehicles, to not exceed the useful life of the equipment. The bill would make other related changes.
