CITY CLERK’S OFFICE - MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Denise Anderson-Warren, City Clerk, Records & Elections Services
Department
Date: August 14, 2018
13.G Request of Councilmembers O’Connor and O’Day that the City Council
oppose Proposition 6 on the statewide ballot in November 2018. Should
Proposition 6 pass, it would repeal SB 1, the Road Repair and
Accountability Act of 2017, which is investing $54 billion statewide over the
next decade to repair and upgrade roads, freeways and bridges in
communities across California and targeted funds towards transit,
congestion and safety improvements. Locally, Santa Monica would lose
state funding for vital projects such as Safe Routes to School, Vision Zero
bicycle and pedestrian safety measures and Big Blue Bus service and
electrification of their fleet.
