RESQLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
C~LA VISTA URGING THE CALIFORNIA
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION TO SUPPORT THE
CONTINUATION OF THE PRESENT TOLL STRUCTURE FOR
VEHICLES CROSSING THE SAN DIEGO CORONADO BAY
BRIDGE
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the San Diego - Coronado Bay Bridge carries
Interstate 5 commuter traffic to Coronado, discharging it to city
streets, and
WHEREAS, the traffic volume greatly exceeded traffic
forecasts enabling the bridge bonds to be paid off 17 years
early, and
WHEREAS, the extremely heavy East-West commuter traffic
has dissected the City of Coronado creating unforeseen health and
safety problems for that city, and
WHEREAS, we support the fundamental right of a small
city to retain its residential character.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby request that the California
Transportation Commission recommend and support the retention of
the presently existing toll structure for the San Diego
Coronado Bay Bridge; that funds in excess of the cost of
maintaining the bridge be placed into an interest bearing trust
account while negotiating the program to alleviate the bridge
created traffic impact in Coronado..

Dear Mayor Cox:
At the Executive Committee Luncheon Meeting of the San
Diego Division of the League of Cities on August 11, 1986,
the Mayors present, or their representatives, agreed to
support Coronado in urging the California Transportation
Commission to continue the existing toll structure for the
San Diego-Coronado Bay Bridge. As agreed at that meeting,
I am enclosing a sample proposed resolution for your
consideration as soon as possible.
The California Transportation Commission will conduct a
public hearing on August 27th. Please forward the
original of your resolution to me for delivery by me to
the Commission. If you think that U.S. Mail will not get
your resolution to me by August 25th, please advise and I
will pick it up at your office.
I very much appreciate your support in this matter.
Sincerely,
"R" "H" Dorman
Mayor, City of Coronado
Enclosure '5.
