PLANNING: PROPOSALS District (APCD) and the Comprehensive Planning Organization
BY CPO AND THE COUNTY (CPO) have made presentations before the Council on the
OF SAN DIEGO subject of air quality planning management. The APCD
proposes that its jurisdiction over air quality be extended
to transportation and the CPO advocates that the existing
air quality planning jurisdictions be maintained. The
County's proposal, with the technical competence of APCD,
would emphasize local staff participation during the initial
planning and with the inclusion of a "Policy Review Commit-
tee," a public forum for debate of regional air quality
strategy would be provided.
Staff recommendati'on City Manager Cole reported that at a meeting today, the
modified Board of Supervisors approved the inclusion of the "Policy
Review Committee" in their program. However, on further
review, staff has a concern that an additional "organization"
would be created; therefore, staff's recommendation has been
modified to support the County's proposal provided the CPO
will act as the "Policy Review Committee."
Supervisor Tom Hamilton Supervisor Hamilton said it was his understanding that if
Chairman, County Board a policy Review Committee was established, that the City
of Supervisors would support the County in this endeavor. He asked that
the Council vote on it tonight in an effort to work with
the County, as they have the expertise and the staff for
air quality management.

tation.
