The City of Chula Vista is providing such an option through the operation of its local bus service. In conjunction with other current and proposed mass transit systems, the Chula Vista City Bus Line seeks to directly reduce traffic con- gestion, air pollution, and inefficient fuel consumption. Without financial assistance however, our municipality cannot continue to improve its level of transportation service. Local tax revenues are already insufficient to meet the many demands placed upon them. Fare increases would exclude public transit from access by the elderly and disadvantaged and increase travel by car for economic reasons. As a result, the City of Chula Vista hereby applies Comprehensive Planning Organization for $134,717 in Transportation Fund monies. This sum will allow us our current bus system and establish a meaningful, alternative to the private automobile. -1- to the local to modernize convenient S~ ANNUAL TRANSPORTATION CLAIM (Article 4) Claim No. To: Comprehensive Planning Organization From: City of Chula Vista (Claz;nant) This Claimant, qualified pursuant to Section 99203 of the Public Utilities code, hereby requE:sts, in accordance with Chapter 1400, Statutes of 1971, as amended by Chapter 1403, Statutes of 1972, and applicable rules and regulations, that its claim be approved in the amount of One hundred fihirty I'our_ Thousand Seven Hundred Seventeen (134,717) for the F~sca1 Year 1976-77,. to be drawn from the "Local Trans- portation Fund" (Fund X10. 5471) of San Diego County for the following purposes and in the followir-c; respective amounts: Purpose Capital and operating support Amount $134,717 It is understood by this clairiant that payment of the claim is subject to approval by CPO and to such monies being on hand and available for distribution, and to the provision that such monies will be used only in accordance with the -t_Prms of the anpro~Ted ar_nukl firsrcial plan.

The City is currently a member of the Comprehensive Planning Organization and is represented on this agency's Transit Coordinating Committee. Chula Vista is also an alternate member of the San Diego Transit Corporation Board of Directors. Chula Vista City Bus Line routes have been designed to provide easy access to both intea-city and inter-city transportation systems. Transfer privileges are currently in effect with Western Greyhound Lines and San Diego Transit Corporation. Minor modifications have been made in routes during the current year. These have contributed to increased ridership and enhanced operating efficiency. However, there have been no substantial changes in the scope of operations. _d ~ -15-
