RESOLUTION NUMBER 11163 (CCS)
(City Council Series)
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
ELECTING TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
WHEREAS, in 1990 the voters of California passed Proposition 111 and the
requirement that urbanized counties develop and implement a Congestion Management
Program; and
WHEREAS, the legislature and governor established the specific requirements of
the Congestion Management Program by passage of legislation which was a companion
to Proposition 111 and codified in California Government Code Section 65088 to
65089.10; and
WHEREAS, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro)
has been designated as the Congestion Management Agency responsible for Los
Angeles County’s Congestion Management Program; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 65089.3 allows urbanized
counties to be exempt from the Congestion Management Program based on resolutions
2
passed by local governments representing a majority of a county’s jurisdictions with a
majority of the county’s population; and
WHEREAS, the Congestion Management Program is outdated and increasingly
out of step with current regional, State, and federal planning processes and requirements,
including new State requirements for transportation performance measures related to
greenhouse gas reduction; and
WHEREAS, on June 20, 2018 the Metro Board of Directors took action to direct
Metro staff to work with local jurisdictions to prepare the necessary resolutions to exempt
Los Angeles County from the Congestion Management Program.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA MONICA
DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the City of Santa Monica hereby elects to be exempt from the
Congestion Management Program as described in California Government Code Sections
65088 to 65089.10.
SECTION 2. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution, and
thenceforth and thereafter the same shall be in full force and effect.
