CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: January 15, 1974
ITEM TITLE: RESOLUTION - Endorsing Passage of Sec. 202(c) of S2589 in
the United States Senate, limiting management of parking
supply and parking surcharges
INITIATED BY: City Attorney
BACKGROUND
On January 7, 1974, the Assistant City Attorney, acting in behalf of
the San Diego Air Quality Control Region (AQCR), attended a meeting
sponsored by the League of California Cities in Sacramento. The pur-
pose of the meeting was to consolidate the efforts of cities throughout
California in their actions against the Environmental Protection Agency.
Specifically, our committee's function (the Ad Hoc Steering Committee)
is to attempt to either have the EPA parking regulations and surcharge
overturned by court decision or legislative process.
It was the consensus of the members of the committee that the most
appropriate action which could be undertaken at this time was to demon-
strate the unified support of California cities of S2589. This bill,
which has already passed through Senate and House conference committees,
is attached to the Emergency Energy Act and, unless amended, need only
be passed by the Senate. In its terms, it declares the parking reg-
ulations and surcharges promulgated by EPA null and void, and prohibits
future enactments of a similar nature.
The attached report to the City Attorneys in the AQCR further explains
the need for this action.
