The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Recognizing the scarcity of resources available for all transportation development, alternative methods of financing provided in this chapter are needed to finance the cost of maintaining, acquiring, constructing, and developing facilities for transportation systems in the County of San Diego and these methods will increase economic opportunities, contribute to economic development, be in the public interest and serve a public purpose, and promote the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens within the County of San Diego.
(b) It is in the public interest to allow the voters of San Diego County to create the San Diego County Regional Transportation Commission so that local decisions can be implemented in a timely manner to provide improvements to the transportation system.
(Added by Stats. 1985, Ch. 1576, Sec. 23.)
