WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Chula Vista

Metropolitan Transit Development Board CMTDB) and the Comprehensive
Planning Organization (CPO) in their roles as regional transportation
planning agencies, and
WHEREAS, it is the belief of the City Council of the City
of Chula Vista that the memorandum of Understanding, as it is pre-
sently constituted, while indicating a clear desire to establish
a cooperative relationship to achieve both intermediate and long
range transportation goals within the planning area of the MTDB,
does not give proper consideration to relationships with federal
and state agencies, and
WHEREAS, the Pemorandum, if approved in its present form,
would preclude the entire region from receiving essential federal
funding, as well as certain state assistance, and
WHEREAS, the remorandum fails to take into account both
federal and state laws and administrative regulations which estab-
lish the qualifications of an agency to act as a recipient of fed-
eral funds or as a qualified body for establishing the priority for
the disbursement of UMPTA and FAU funds, and
WHEREAS, the Comprehensive Planning Organization has
prepared a Memorandum of Understanding which the City Council believes
is a sound document to be used in further negotiation with the
Metropolitan Transit Development Board to arrive at a Memorandum
of Understanding which would accomplish the desires and goals of
all parties and not jeopardize existing federal and state programs
for assistance in transportation planning and development.
NOS^~, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby express its strong opposition
to the adoption by the Comprehensive Planning Organization of the
Memorandum of Understanding, as prepared by the P~Zetropolitan Transit

prepared by CPO as a tool for such negotiation.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the representative of the City
of Chula Vista to the Comprehensive Planning Organization be, and
he is hereby authorized and directed to strongly oppose the acceptance
of the Memorandum of Understanding as submitted by the MTDB.
