AND MEMBERS. FIRST I'D LIKE TO
START BY AGREEING TO THE
AMENDMENT AS DISCUSSED IN
SENATE ENERGY LAST WEEK. AND TO
THOSE PROPOSED IN YOUR
COMMITTEE TODAY. THESE
AMENDMENTS FURTHER CLARIFIED
THAT THE BILL DOES NOT MANDATE
PO USED TO MAINTAIN PUBLICLY
BUT PUBLIC CHARGERS THEY DON'T
pCHARGES THEY MUST MAKE
AVAILABLE AND MAKE A MINOR
TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS TO THE
BILL. I'D LIKE TO THINK THE
CHEERS AND THE COMMITTEE STAFF
AGAIN FOR THEIR WORK AND
DEDICATION TO IMPROVING THE
SPILL. AS WE HAVE SEEN DEMAND
FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES IS
GROWING. WE HAVE SET STATEWIDE
GOAL OF EIGHT MILLION EV'S BY
TWENTY THIRD. IN ORDER TO
SUPPORT OUR DRIVERS WILL NEED
OVER ONE POINT TWO MILLION
SHARED AND PRIVATE CHARGES TO
ALL COME ONLINE. BUILD OUT OF
THE V. CHARGERS IS OCCURRING IN
MANY AREAS BUT WE ARE RELYING
HEAVILY ON THE STATE'S ELECTRIC
UTILITY OR I WILL USE. TO FILL
THIS NEED. YOU MUST BE SURE
THAT PEER USER FILLING THE GAP
IN THEIR TERRITORIES AS WELL AS
A SERVER A THIRD OF OUR STATE'S
ELECTRIC CUSTOMERS. THIS WILL
WILL DO JUST THAT BY REQUIRING
ALL PEOPLE USE TO ENSURE PUBLIC
CHARGING IS AVAILABLE IN THEIR
TERRITORIES. AND IT GIVES THEM
FULL LATITUDE ON HOW THEY MAKE
THAT HAPPEN INCLUDING CHARGING
CUSTOMERS FOR THE SERVICE OR
WORKING WITH PRIVATE INDUSTRY
TO FILL THE NEED. BECAUSE OF
THE AMENDMENTS THERE IS NO
OPPOSITION TO THIS BILLAND IT
IS MY REQUEST OF THE MEMBERS
WHEN I VOTE ON EIGHTY. SIX

40% OF THE STATE'S GHG
EMISSIONS COMES FROM THE
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR- THIS
LEGISLATURE HAS DONE AN
ADMIRABLE JOB OF DIRECTING THE
INVESTOR OWNED UTILITIES. TO
INVEST IN BUILDING. EVE YOU
CHARGING STATIONS
INFRASTRUCTURE ACROSS OUR
ENTIRE SERVICE TERRITORY
UNFORTUNATELY. THAT IS NOT THE
CASE WITH MANY OF THE PUBLICLY
OWNED UTILITIES. AND THE
PRIVATE SECTOR PARTICULARLY
IGNORES COMMUNITIES THAT ARE
ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED IN
AND ARE PREDOMINANTLY LOW
INCOME. SO IN ORDER TO ENSURE

IF YOU'D LIKE TO GO AHEAD.
THANK YOU THE CHAIR CHAIRWOMAN
GONZALEZ AND MEMBERS OF FIRST
I'D LIKE TO THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR AND YOUR STAFF FOR YOUR
WORK ON THIS BILL IN YOUR
ASSISTANCE AND HELP- WE ARE
GOING TO BE RUDE ACCEPTING THE
COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS AS
OTLINED ON PAGES SIX AND SEVEN
INCLUDING REMOVING THE SECTION
RELATING TO SCHOOL ZONES. I
ALSO WANT TO THANK OUR TRIPLE A
FOR WORKING WITH OUR OFFICE
SINCE MARCH ON TIGHTENING THE
DEFINITIONS IN THE BILL TO MAKE
SURE THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. THE
GOAL OF THIS BILL IS SIMPLY TO
HELP CITIES HAVE MORE
FLEXIBILITY WHEN THEY SET SPEEDLIMITS IN ORDER TO SAVE LIVES
AND A CENTER TRAFFIC SAFETY
RATHER THAN SPEED AS THE
PRIMARY GOAL OF OUR SPEED
LIMITS AND OF OUR ROADS. SO HOW
DID THIS COME ABOUT SO I
REPLIED WE USED TO BE ON THE
CITY COUNCIL THE CITY OF
GLENDALE WHICH IS A CITY THAT
LIKE MANY OF OUR CITIES IN THE
STATE HAS A TRAFFIC SAFETY
PROBLEM WE HAVE AN UNUSUALLY
HIGH AMOUNT OF PEDESTRIAN
DEATHS EVERY SINGLE YEAR AND
THE CITY HAS MADE TRAFFIC
SAFETY A HIGH PRIORITY IN THE
CITY FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS.
INSTITUTING TRAFFIC CALMING
MEASURES WORKING WITH THE
PUBLIC DOING EDUCATION BUT ONE
THING IS REALLY FRUSTRATED OR
CITY WHICH IS BEING CONSTANTLY
FORCED TO RAISE SPEED LIMITS TO
ACCOMMODATE SPEEDING DRIVERS
EVEN AS WE'RE TRYING TO
PRIORITIZE ROAD SAFETY. AND
THIS IS BECAUSE CALIFORNIA
USES- A SYSTEM CALLED THE
EIGHTY FIFTH PERCENTILE THAT
FORCES CITIES TO THAT IN ORDER
TO ENFORCE SPEED LIMITS THEY
MUST HAVE THE SPEED LIMITS
WITHIN THE EIGHTY FIFTH
PERCENTILE OF HOW FAST DRIVERS
ARE GOING. NOW IN THE AGE OF
BOTH ONLINE- TELEPHONE APPS
LIKE WAZE AND GOOGLE MAPS YOU
HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE DRIVING
THROUGH. NEIGHBORHOODS THAT
THEY'RE UNFAMILIAR WITH. TRYING
TO GET TO AND WORK OFTEN SEE.
THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. WE
ALSO HAVE A SITUATION WHERE
CARS BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN
IMPROVEMENTS OVER THE YEARS.
MAKE IT EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO
SPEAK WITHOUT FEELING LIKE
THEY'RE GOING FAST YOU CAN GO
VERY VERY FAST IN TODAY'S
MODERN CARS AND HAVE ALMOST NO
ROAD NOISE NO SENSE OF MOTION
AND THIS ALSO ENCOURAGES PEOPLE
FRANKLY TO SPEED. SO THE EIGHTY
FIFTH PERCENTILE IT'S BEEN
SOMETHING THAT'S VERY
FRUSTRATING FOR ALL OF OUR
CITIES WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE A
HUGE. ROLL CALL OF CITIES WHO
ARE SUPPORTING THIS BILL AND A
TRAFFIC SAFETY GROUPS THAT ARE
SUPPORTING THIS BILL. BECAUSE
EVERY FEW MILES AN HOUR FASTER
THAN A CAR GOES ALMOST
EXPONENTIALLY INCREASES THE
CHANCE OF SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH FOR PEDESTRIAN WHO'S HIT
BY THAT CAR. QUITE SIMPLY SPEED
KILLS AND OUR CITIES NEED
BETTER TOOLS SO THIS BILL. ARE
WE OF MANY PEOPLE IN THE PAST
IN THIS LEGISLATURE INTRODUCED
BILLS TRYING TO DEAL WITH THE
EIGHTY FIFTH PERCENTILE IN BIG
REWRITE RARELY EVER SUCCEEDED.
WE DID THE SAME THING TWO YEARS
AGO AND TRIED TO DO A BILL
REFORMING THE EIGHTY FIFTH
PERCENTILE. THE FORMER CHAIR OF
THIS COMMITTEE- IN THE ASSEMBLY
SIDE- ASKED US INSTEAD OF
INTRODUCING THE BILL TO FORM A
TASK FORCE TO BRING ALL THE
STAKEHOLDERS TOGETHER FOR THE
FIRST TIME. TO DISCUSS THE
EIGHTY FIFTH PERCENTILE AND HOW
SPEED LIMITS RELATE TO TRAFFIC
SAFETY. SO FOR THE AND IT WAS A
REALLY WISE THING TO DO BECAUSE
FOR THE FIRST TIME WE HAD A
GROUP MADE UP OF FORMER
OPPONENTS OF CHANGING THE
POLICY. OF LAW ENFORCEMENT OF
ROAD SAFETY ADVOCATES. OF JUST
A WHOLE EVERY SINGLE TYPE OF
STAKEHOLDER WAS INVOLVED IN
THIS WORKING RIBBON THEY WORK
FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR LOOKING AT
ALL OF THE DATA FROM AROUND THE
COUNTRY ON SPEED LIMIT SETTING.
ON ROAD SAFETY. AND CAME UP
WITH A LIST OF RECOMMENDATIONS.
THAT ALSO ADDRESS PEOPLE'S
CONCERNS. AND THIS BILL IS THE
RESULT OF THAT VERY HARD WORK
FROM MANY STAKEHOLDERS FROM
ACROSS THE STATE FROM RURAL
AREAS TO URBAN AREAS. ONLY FROM
JOB VERY REPRESENTATIVE SAMPLE
OF STAKE HOLDERS INCLUDING
TRIPLE WAY. WHO WAS A
WONDERFUL- ADVOCATE TO WORK
WITH. THIS SO THIS BILL REALLY
DOES WORK TO GIVE CITIES THE
TOOLS IN THE RIGHT LOCATIONS
UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. TO
NOT BE FORCED TO CONTINUALLY
RAISE SPEED LIMITS AND IN SOME
CIRCUMSTANCES TO BE ABLE TO
LOWER SPEED LIMITS BASED ON
THINGS LIKE ACCIDENT DATA. AND
VULNERABLE POPULATIONS IT'S A
MODEST REFORM BUT ONE THAT'S
VERY VERY MEANINGFUL. AND I
LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING A
DISCUSSION AND I WOULD URGE AND
I'VE- TODAY THANK YOU. THANK
YOU ASSEMBLYWOMAN. OKAY IN
SUPPORT YOU HAVE A- TWO PEOPLE
THAT ARE LEAD TESTIMONY OF
WITNESSES- YOU'VE GT TO
DARNELL GROUPS BE. HARDER NOW
KRISPY TRANSFORMING THE
COASTLINE MODERATOR CAN YOU
ENSURE THAT MR CHRISTIE IS ON
THE LINE. GOOD MORNING- NAME
ETERNAL GREAT BE EXPECTED
DIRECTOR TRANSFORM. CAN ACCOUNT
FOR NEARLY A THIRD OF ALL
PRACTICALITY. EIGHTY FORTY
THREE OF THE COMMENTS AND RULE
THAT WILL ALLOW TRAFFIC
ENGINEER COULD DRESS HI INJURY
AND CRASH COURT OR BY LOWERING
THE SPEED LIMIT. IT ALSO KEEP
ANYTHING FROM BEING REQUIRED TO
INCREASE THE LIMIT IN HIGH
SPEED AND HIGH END RECORD OR- A
TARGETED APPROACH AGAINST CITY
THE FLEXIBILITY THEY NEED TO
ADDRESS THEIR MOST DANGEROUS
QUARTERS. COUNTRY DISCONNECTING
THIS BE LIMITED JUDGMENTS ARE
NOT ARBITRARY THEIR RESPONSE TO
THE HIGH NUMBER. OF TRAFFIC
FATALITIES AND INJURIES. WHERE
YOU CAN BE LIMITED BY JUST BY
HEALTHY HOUR. REDO INJURY
BETWEEN EIGHT AND FIFTEEN. WELL
TRY TO CALL ME IS IMPORTANT
PART OF A COMPREHENSIVE
APPROACH TO KEEPING OUR STREETS
SAFE. THAT TAKES TIME AND MONEY
CURRENT LAW COURSES THAT YOU
CAN CHOOSE BETWEEN STREET FEST
YOU FAST AND A STREET THAT IS
UNENFORCEABLE. THIS IS WHY WE
KNOW THAT THIS IS A BOTH. A
MEASURE OF COURAGE AND FAITH.
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THE
ECONOMIC TRAVEL WE'RE DOWN
THIRTEEN POINT 2% NATIONWIDE.
WITHOUT TRAFFIC SO IT GO UP
THERE AND THE LARGEST INCREASES
WERE IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY.
WHERE THERE WERE 23% COMPARED
TO SEVEN POINT 2% OVERALL.
UNDER TWENTY NINETEEN GAINERS
BY THE DINING COURT SMART WITH
AMERICA FOUND THAT BLACK PEOPLE
ARE ALMOST 50% MORE LIKELY THAN
WHITE PEOPLE TO BE STRUCK AND
KILLED BY DRIVER WHILE WALKING
AND DISPARITY FOR INDIGENOUS
PEOPLE LOOK UP TO THREE TIMES
THAT HIGH. WHAT WE CAN STUDY
FOUND THIRTY FIVE PERCENT. OF
THE NATION'S MOST DANGEROUS
ROADWAYS PEDESTRIAN BORDER LOW
INCOME NEIGHBORHOODS. WHEN UCLA
STUDY SHOWED THAT BLACK PEOPLE
FACE DISPROPORTIONATE SAFETY
OUTCOMES AND ALL TRANSPORTATION
MODES PROFESSIONAL WALKING.
BLACKENED COLLISION VICTIMS ARE
MOST LIKELY TO HAVE BEEN KILLED
AND LEAST LIKELY TO SURVIVE
WITH NO INJURIES. CONVICTIONS
THE OTHER RACIAL GROUPS IT
REQUIRES SUPPORT THIS
COMMONSENSE PUBLIC SAFETY
MEASURE OPPOSED TO ENHANCE THE
LOCAL COMMUNITY. AND WE BRING
SAFETY TO ALL OF US THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MR CRISPY OUR NEXT WE
HAVE SELENA REYNOLDS FROM THE
LA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
SHE ALSO WAS ON THE CO HOST
LINE MS REYNOLDS. GOOD MORNING
CHAIRMAN GONZALEZ MEMBERS THE
LEADE REYNOLDS GENERAL MANAGER
OF THE LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT
OF TRANSPORTATION SPEAKING IN
STRONG SUPPORT OF EIGHTY FORTY
THREE. DRIVERS KILLED NEARLY
FOUR THOUSAND CALIFORNIANS
CRASHES EVERY YEAR THREE TIMES
THAT AMOUNT OR SEVERELY INJURED
AND THE GOOD DISPROPORTIONATELY
AFFECT THE MOST VULNERABLE
AMONG. CHILDREN OLDER ADULTS
AND PEOPLE WALKING IN LOW
INCOME COMMUNITIES OF COLOR FOR
EXAMPLE IN LOS ANGELES DURING
THE PANDEMIC TRAFFIC GOING TO
GREECE AND SEVERE CRASHES WENT
DOWN EXCEPT IN THE
PREDOMINANTLY BLACK AND BROWN
COMMUNITY OF SOUTH LA. WHAT WAS
NOT TRAFFIC VIOLENCE GROW BY
TWENTY THREE PERCENT. KILLED
AND ROBBED OF THE QUALITY OF
LIFE. B. DETERMINES THE
SEVERITY OF THE CRASH TO FIVE
MILES AN HOUR CAN MEAN THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND
DEATH. THE CALIFORNIA WE DON'T
LET PEOPLE TEXT AND DRIVE
BECAUSE THE TRACTOR DRIVING
SKILLS. WE DON'T ALLOW.
DRINKING AND DRIVING BECAUSE
DRUNK DRIVING. WE SAY WE DON'T
LET THE TO BE. PUT UNDER
CURRENT LAW IF ENOUGH DRIVERS.
EXCEEDS LIMITS WE INCREASE
THEM. IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE
SPEED LIMITS MUST BE SET TO
BRING DRIVER BEHAVIOR IN LINE
WITH THE PEOPLE. ROADWAY
CONDITIONS AND THE LAW. CURRENT
LAN IS FORCED ME TO RAISE THE
LIMIT ON NEARLY TWO HUNDRED
MILES OF STREETS OVER THE LAST
FIVE YEARS. JUST LAST WEEK I
HAD TO RAISE THE SPEED LIMIT
WHERE A MOTHER OF TWO WITH
KILLED BY SPEEDING DRIVER.
AFTER THE STREET BECAME
UNENFORCEABLE AND DRIVERS
CONTINUED SPEEDING RECKLESSLY
UNITY. THE STATUS QUO IS NOT
STAGNANT IT GIVES LICENSE TO
LIFE THREATENING BEHAVIOR. THE
CITY OF LOS ANGELES AIMS TO
SORT OF BE THE SAVE LIVES
MURDERED HEARING SOLUTIONS.
IT'LL TAKE TIME AND MONEY TO
BUILD. AS WE WORK TO IMPROVE
OUR. SEVENTY FIVE HUNDRED MILE
STREETS AND ALLEYS. SPEED
LIMITS WILL CONTAIN TO RISE.
AND MORE PEOPLE WILL. IF WE
DON'T ACT NOW. AT FORTY THREE
WITH AN END TO SENSELESS SPEED
LIMIT INCREASES IT PROTECTS OUR
MOST VULNERABLE. GIVE CITIES A
BETTER WAY TO SET SAFETY LIMITS
ARGUABLY STREETS AROUND SCHOOLS
AND SENIOR CNTERS. AND
COMMERCIAL AREAS WHERE MORE
PEOPLE WALKING CONGREGATE. AB
FORTY THREE WILL SAVE LIVES AND
I URGE YOU YES. THANK YOU.

MR BEEPERS ON THE LINE. WHAT

GO RIGHT AHEAD THANK YOU MISTER
BEAVER. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE JV FOR
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR STEVE FOR ST
LA REPRESENTING THE INTERESTS
OF. CALIFORNIA'S TWENTY SEVEN
MILLION LICENSED DRIVERS I AM
ALSO SERVED AS A MEMBER OF THE
ZERO FATALITIES TASK FORCE.
MAYBE FORTY THREE WHILE WELL
INTENDED SUFFERS FROM A
FUNDAMENTAL ERROR OF COMPLETING
LOWER SPEED LIMITS WITH LOWER
SPEED. THE CASE OF EXPERIENCE
IN RESEARCH INCLUDING STUDIES
FROM THE FEDERAL HIGHWAY
ADMINISTRATION SHOW. THAT
LOWERING OR RAISING SPEED
LIMITS HAS LITTLE TO NO EFFECT
ON DRIVERS SPEEDS. EVEN THE
REPORT BY THE EUROPEAN
TALLAHASSEE FORCE CONCEDES THAT
THE MOTION EXPECTED ABOUT A ONE
TO TWO MILE PER HOUR CHANGING
SPEEDS. AND EVEN THAT
OVERSTATES THE EFFECT DARBUS
BEACH MATCH THE WAY THE
GOVERNMENT BUILT THE ROADWAY
NOT THE NUMBER ON THE SIGN.
SPEED LIMIT SET MORE THAN FIVE
MILES AN HOUR DIFFERENCE FROM
THIS DESIGN SPEED AS MEASURED
BY SPEED SURVEY CAN BE
DANGEROUS CAUSING INCREASE
SPEED VARIATION WHICH LEADS TO
INCREASED COLLISIONS. FURTHER
FORCING DRIVERS TO HYPER FOCUS
ON MAINTAINING AN UNCOMFORTABLE
SPEED NOT ALIGNED WITH THE
ROADWAY GEOMETRY BECAUSE
INCREASED DRIVER'S DISTRACTION
AND MORE DANGER FOR PEDESTRIANS
AND BICYCLISTS. BLOWING AS
BEING WITH IS NOT LOWER SPEED
SIMPLY LOWERED THE BAR TO
ENFORCEMENT MAKING VIOLATORS
OUT OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF
DRIVERS. SPEED LIMITS ARE
SUPPOSED TO INDICATE WHO THE
OUT LIARS ARE BUT WHEN THE
SPEED LIMIT BY DEFINITION MAKES
FIFTY SIXTY OR EVEN 80% OF
DRIVERS OF THE VIOLATORS.
THAT'S THE ONLY BECOMES
MEANINGLESS ENDANGERED
ENGENDERING DISRESPECT FROM THE
MOTORING PUBLIC AND MAKING THE
JOB OF THE POLICE MUCH MORE
DIFFICULT. THANK YOU FOR
CALLING THE POLICE TO ENFORCE
UNREALISTICALLY LOW SPEED
LIMITS OF ROADS THE TRUST
BETWEEN GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
AND THE PUBLIC AT A TIME WHEN
THE TRUST WHEN I TRUST HIS
INSTRUCTIONS AND OUR SOCIETY
CAN LITTLE AFFORD TO FURTHER
DAMAGE TO. THIS FRAGILE
RELATIONSHIP. IN CONCLUSION
THAT WE CURRENTLY REMAIN IN
OPPOSITION WE WOULD LIKE TO
THANK THE AUTHOR FOR AGREEING
TO ACCEPT THE COMMITTEE'S
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS INTENDED TO
RESTRICT THE ABILITY TO REDUCE
SPEED LIMITS AND TO NO MORE
THAN TEN MILES PER HOUR BELOW
THE MEASURED OPERATING SPEED.
HOWEVER AN AMBIGUITY EXISTS TO
SECTION SEVEN OF THE BILL WHICH
MAY ALLOW GREATER VARIATION IN
THE FORMAT. MILE PER HOUR
REDUCTION UNFORTUNATELY AS OF

OPPOSITION- ON THE CONFERENCE
LINE IS THERE ANYONE IN THE
GALLERY IN OPPOSITION. C. NINE
IN ROOM ONE TWELVE. EIGHTY NINE
OKAY WE'LL TAKE THIS BACK TO
MEMBERS FOR DISCUSSION SENATOR
RUBIO. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR- I
REALLY DO THINK THIS IS A
REALLY GOOD FELL ON NOT ONLY
WILL I SUPPORT IT BUT I ALSO
WANT TO BE A CO AUTHOR- YOU
KNOW AND I DO APPRECIATE THE
WORK THAT WAS DONE BY THE ZERO
FATALITY TASK FORCE- I BELIEVE
THIS BILL COMPLEMENTS. ANOTHER
BILL THAT I THAT I HAVE WHICH
IS SB SEVEN THIRTY FIVE WHICH
ATTEMPTS TO REDUCE SPEEDS
AROUND. SCHOOL ZONES AS A
SCHOOL TEACHER FOR SEVENTEEN
YEARS AND VICE PRINCIPAL. YOU
KNOW I KEEP SHARING HOW I SAW
SO MANY NEAR MISSES AND ONE
CHILD IN PARTICULAR GET STRUCK
AND IT'S ALWAYS UNFORTUNATE SO.
WE DO NEED TO TRY AND MAKE
STREETS SAFER FOR KIDS AND OUR
COMMUNITY- I DO APPRECIATE THAT
CITIES HAVE DISCRETION BASED
ON. AND I BELIEVE THE AUTHOR
SAID IT YOU KNOW THE RIGHT
LOCATION AND UNDER CERTAIN
CIRCUMSTANCES AND I DO BELIEVE
THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR EACH CITY
TO. TO REALLY ASSESS THEIR OWN
COMMUNITY AND SEE WHERE THEY
NEED S. I ALSO THINK THAT THAT
THIS IS A MODEST APPROACH- YOU
KNOW ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO
FOR OUR FAMILIES TO MAKE SURE
THAT THEY'RE SAFE I THINK IT'S
ALWAYS A GOOD THING. I AM WE
ALSO HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE WE
LIVE SO FAR IN TERMS OF LOCAL
COMMUNITIES AND STATES TRYING
TO GET. PEOPLE OFF THE ROAD AND
DRIVE I MEAN I'M SORRY RIDING
BIKES AND WE EVEN. DESIGNED
ROADS NOW MORE FRIENDLY TO TWO
BIKES WHICH WE DIDN'T HAVE IN
THE PAST AND WE ALSO HAVE TO.
TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION
THAT THERE IS A LOT MORE PEOPLE
BIKING AND WALKING AND THAT WAS
OUR GOAL RIGHT TO GET PEOPLE
OFF CAR SO I THINK THIS IS
REALLY. JUST A GOOD APPROACH TO
TRYING AND BE SAFE SO WITH THAT
I WANT TO MOVE THE BILL THANK
YOU THANK. YOU SENATOR RUBIO
SENATOR AKOWSKI. I THINK MATT.
MADAM I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE
AUTHOR. OF ON SOME OF THE
POINTS THAT WERE RAISED BY THE-
OPPOSITION IN PARTICULAR I'M
READING- SECTION SEVEN. OF THE
BILL ON PAGE NINE. AND I THINK
WHAT THEY'RE- LOOKING AT IS IT
STARTS AT. FIVE POINT NINETEEN.
WHERE IT TAKES THE SPEED LIMIT
NEEDS TO BE ROUNDED UP TO THE
HIGHEST THE NEAREST FIVE MILES
PER HOUR INCREMENTS BUT THE
EIGHTY FIVE. EIGHTY FIFTH
PERCENTILE SPEED. THE
DEPARTMENT TRANSPORTATION A
LOCAL AUTHORITY MAY DECIDE
INSTEAD TO. ROUND DOWN THE
SPEED LIMIT. TO THE LOWER FIVE
MILES. PER HOUR INCREMENTS SO.
I'M WONDERING. IF THIS POSTED
SPEED LIMIT IS- THIRTY. N. N.
THIS SPEED THEY DO THE TESTS
AND EIGHTY FIFTEEN ECHOES. I
UNDERSTAND. THIRTY TWO POINT
NINE IS BELOW OR THIRTY TWO
POINT FOUR IS BELOW THIRTY TWO
AND A HALF SO THAT WOULD ROUND
DOWN BUT IF IT GOES TO THIRTY
FOUR OR THIRTY FIVE. WITH
THIRTY FOUR POINT NINE NINE
NINE. THE SAD. GIVE CALTRANS
ANY TORY THIS STAY AT THE
THIRTY RATHER THAN GOING TO
THE- THIRTY FIVE. THAT QUESTION
THE SENSE TO. I DIDN'T KNOW
THAT THEY WERE B. MATH AS PART
OF THIS QUIZ BUT I WILL DO MY
BEST SO ARE YOU'RE ASKING UNDER
OUR BILL OR UNDER THE CAR UNDER
CURRENT LAW YOU'RE SO YOU'RE
SAYING UNDER OUR BILL AND YOUR
BILL WOULD GIVE THEM THE OPTION
NOW OF STAYING AT THAT ORIGINAL
SPEED LIMIT. OKAY SO IT'S MY
UNDERSTAND IS LONG AS IT
DOESN'T GO OVER THIRTY FIVE IT
DOESN'T INCLUDE A FULL FIVE
MILES RIGHT AND ACTUALLY AN
ORIGINAL INCARNATION OF THE
BILL DID GIVE THEM MORE
FLEXIBILITY TO LOWER IT EVEN
MORE. BUT BUT BASED ON CONCERNS
WE MADE THAT. A LOT MORE YOU
KNOW WE COMPROMISE AND MADE IT
TO WHERE IT WASN'T AS LARGE OF
A SWING. IN THE STAFF REPORT TO
SAY GOOD JOB ABOUT TALKING THE
CHALLENGE THAT WE HAVE ON
LOWERING SPEED LIMITS- WE'RE AS
THE OPPOSITION IN THE CRATE
INDICATED THAT THERE'S NOW YOU
COULD HAVE 6070% OF THE PEOPLE
THAT MAYBE OUT LIARS. BECAUSE
OF THE WAY THAT THE STREETS
DESIGNED- AND THAT WOULD CREATE
THE STAFF REPORTS PARTS OUT
MORE- PAST DISPARITY BETWEEN
HOW FAST PEOPLE ARE DRIVING
BECAUSE SOMEBODY'S GOING TWENTY
MILES AN HOUR IN SOMEBODY'S
GOING FORTY IN THE STREETS
DESIGNED TO GO FORTY FIVE- CAN
YOU ADRESS THAT CONCERN THAT
THE OPPOSITION HAS. RAISED THAT
WE MAY ACTUALLY INCREASE
DISPARITY BECAUSE THE POSTED
SIGN MAY BE- SIX IT IS
SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW WHAT THE
STREET DESIGN WAS AND WHAT THE
DATA POINTS OUT OF HOW THE
AVERAGE DRIVER DRIVES ALONG THE
STREET SO I HAVE LOOKED AT SOME
OF THE DATA THAT SUGGESTED THAT
I ACTUALLY DON'T FIND IT VERY
COMPELLING. THE IDEA THAT IF
YOU HAVE A SPEED LIMIT THAT'S
TWENTY FIVE MILES AN HOU AND
PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE GOING
THIRTEEN YOU'VE GOT SOME GOING
FORTY FIVE MEANS THAT YOU'RE
GOING TO SOMEHOW COME OVER HERE
AND SOMEONE ELSE. OR THEY'RE
GOING AT SUCH DIFFERENT SPEEDS
THAT CAUSES ACCIDENTS I
PERSONALLY DON'T THINK IS
REALLY BORN OUT IN THE DATA I-
AND I THINK IT CERTAINLY WOULD
BE IN A MUCH MORE EXTREME
SITUATION SOMEBODY GOING THIRTY
FIVE MILES AN HOUR FREEWAY WITH
THE- SPEED LIMIT IS SIXTY FIVE
MILES AN HOUR COULD INDEED POSE
A DANGER. BUT ON CITY SREETS
THAT ARE NORMALLY TWENTY FIVE
THIRTY THIRTY FIVE MILES AN
HOUR I JUST DON'T SEE THAT
DISCREPANCY YOU KNOW WE'RE
TALKING. A LOT OF AREAS THAT
ARE HEAVILY POPULATED WHERE
WOULD THIS PARTICULAR- SPEED
LIMIT CHANGE WOULD AFFECT YOU
KNOW THE BILL IS LIMITED TO
BUSINESS DISTRICT IT'S LIMITED
TO AREAS THAT ARE HIGH INJURY
ALREADY IT'S LIMITED TO AREAS
WHERE THERE'S A LOT OF
PEDESTRIANS OR CYCLISTS. YOU'RE
NOT GOING TO HAVE THESE HUGE
VARIATIONS IN SPEED SORT OF
PROGRAMMED INTO THOSE ROADS I
CAN CERTAINLY SEE THAT IF ALL
OF A SUDDEN OF A SECTION OF
HIGHWAY WITH A SPEED LIMIT
CHANGES. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT
THOSE CONDITIONS EXIST WHERE
THIS BILL. TAKES EFFECT. MA'AM
I THE BECAUSE- I THINK I
UNDERSTAND WHAT THE- WHAT THE-
ADVOCATES AND THE AUTHOR IS
GETTING AT IS THAT THIS IS A-
RATHER THAN CHANGING THE STREET
SCAPE. INDUSTRY ENGINEERING. I
KNOW I COME FROM FREMONT. IT
WAS DESIGNED. WITH THE IDEA
THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO
FREEWAYS AND THERE ARE PLENTY
OF STREETS. WHERE YOU HAVE.
FOUR LIGHTS AND YOU HAVE A-
RIGHT HAND TURN LANE THAT YOU
DON'T EVEN HAVE TO SLOW DOWN
YOU CAN GO AT FORTY FIVE MILES
AN HOUR BECAUSE- THEY WERE
EXPECTING PEOPLE BE WHISTLING
OFF. ONE FREEWAY TO GET TO THE
OTHER SO. THAT'S WHAT THE BUILD
COMMUNITY IS IN THE STAFF
REPORT. SEEMS TO POINT OUT THAT
THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR. IN
DETERMINING C. US. SPEED IS THE
ST ENGINEERING AND WE HAVE A-
OUR PREVIOUS CHAIR. HAS
AUTHORED A BILL THAT IS GOT A
BOAT LOAD OF MONEY THAT'S GOING
INTO LOCAL. DISTRICTS RIGHT NOW
AND THERE'S A LOT OF. BIKE
LANES AND A LOT OF TRAFFIC
CALMING THAT'S GOING ON-
THAT'S- THAT'S CHANGING THAT
STREETSCAPE THAT'S GOING TO. TO
GET THE SAME RESULTS I THINK
THAT THE AUTHORS TRYING TO GET
TO. THE CHALLENGES THAT I'M
HAVING IS THAT. THOUGH WHICH
COMES FIRST THE APPLE OR THE-
CHICKEN OR THE EGG DO WE CHANGE
THE STREET SCAPE AND THEN
REDUCE THE SPEEDS. ARE REDUCED
TO SPEEDS. N. SITE PEOPLE AND-
CREATE HIS DISPARITY SO THAT'S
THAT'S- WHAT MY CONCERN IS IT'S
NOT. IT'S NOT TRYING TO REDUCE
THE THIRD OF THE DEATHS THAT
OCCUR BY TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS
RESULT OF SPEED. BECAUSE TWO
THIRDS. ARE NOT BY SPEED SO WE
GOT TO DEAL WITH THAT- WHAT HAS
GIVEN ME- WE SPOKE WITH MANY
AGENCIES. THE COMMITTEE MYSELF
DIRECTLY- SPEAKING WITH MANY
AGENCIES ONE IN PARTICULAR BAY
AREA TRANSIT LOS ANGELES
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION.
ARE OF COURSE NEED THE SOLUTION
SO I THINK YOUR POINT WHAT
THEY'RE LOOKING TO DO NOW AFTER
THIS BILL IF IT SHOULD PASS A
MOVE THROUGH AND BE SIGNED BY
THE GOVERNOR. IS TO CREATE NEW
STREETSCAPE IN. NEW ENGINEERING
AND DESIGNS AND PLANS. IN THEIR
LOCAL. AND THAT'S WHAT THEY
COMMITTED TO A SPA FOR PLACES
LIKE SOUTH LOS ANGELES IT HAS
SEEN. AN INCREASE IN
FATALITIES- THAT DEFINITELY
NEEDS THAT THE SPEEDS LOWERED
WITH THE COMP AND THEN TO
COMPLEMENT THE- THE- THE CHANGE
IN ENGINEERING AND STREETSCAPE.
THOUGH MORE BOLD- YOU KNOW MORE
STREET BALTIMORE- EITHER YOU
KNOW INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES
THAT WOULD HELP- EVEN FURTHER
REDUCED SPEEDS IN AREAS THAT.
MAYBE WERE INTENDED IT
HISTORICALLY TO BE YOU KNOW
FASTER SORT OF AREAS AROUND
THREE WAYS IN WHICH ONE OF THEM
ONE OF WHICH I LIVE. I THINK IT
REALLY OKAY I THINK WE ALL HAVE
THAT IN OUR DISTRICT RIGHT
THANK YOU FOR THAT
CLARIFICATION OF COURSE AND
THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION AS
SENATOR BECKER. THANK YOU. I
THINK THE AUTHOR OF I WILL BE
SUPPORTING THIS BILL I HAD A
QUESTION AROUND. YOU IN GENERAL
WE TRY TO. IF POSSIBLE DECREASE
IN REACTION TO PEOPLE OF COLOR
WITH PUBLIC SAFETY AND I'M
JUST. HOW DO YOU THINK ABOUT
THIS BILL IN TERMS OF- THE TEND
TO BE HIGHER POLICE PRESENCE IN
TERMS IN LOW INCOME
NEIGHBORHOODS AND HOW THEY CAN
ACTUALLY INCREASE INTERACTION
AND- AND- MAYBE INCREASE FINDS
AN INCREASE- YOU KNOW ROUTE
RESULTING. SITUATIONS WITH
PEOPLE OF COLOR HOW DO YOU
THINK ABOUT THAT IN THE CONTEXT
OF THIS BILL. CHECK THE
QUESTION AND THAT'S CERTAINLY
THE CONCERN THAT THE ACLU I
THINK WAS WAS VOICING. SO RIGHT
NOW ON ANY GIVEN DAY WE ASSUME
THAT ABOUT 15% OF PEOPLE ARE
ACTUALLY SPEEDING- THEY MAY NOT
BE AGREE JUST A SPEEDING BUT
THEY'RE SPENDING ENOUGH TO GET
PULLED OVER BY LAW ENFORCEMENT.
AND YET 50% OF PEOPLE DON'T GET
PULLED OVER EVERY DAY- SO. IT
MEANS TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU
KNOW THIS WOULD INCREASE
TICKETING REALLY THEY'RE GIVING
TICKETS LEFT AND- POLICE
OFFICERS HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE TO
TAKE IT- IT'S NOT GOING TO GIVE
THEM SORT OF MORE PEOPLE BUT IT
DOES. ALLOW FOR SIGNAL TO BE
SENT- SO. I THINK FIRST OF ALL
OUR PROBLEMS REALLY WITH THE
FEE STRUCTURE THAT WE HAVE ON
TRAFFIC TICKETS WHICH ARE VERY
PUNITIVE IN VERY HIGH. AND
DEFINITELY DISPROPORTIONATELY.
HURT PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE THE
ABILITY TO PAY THOSE TICKETS
AND THAT'S FOR ALL TRAFFIC
INFRACTIONS ACROSS THE BOARD.
AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE
SHOULD LOOK AT SEPARATELY JUST
BECAUSE WE FEEL THAT. IN MANY
CASES THE PENALTIES NOT FITTING
THE CRIME DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE
JUST SAY WE'RE JUST NOT GONNA
TAKE IT ANYMORE I THINK WE
SHOULD REALLY SHOULD TAKE A
LOOK AT. WHAT WE'RE WHAT WE'RE
CHARGING AND HOW MANY FEES ARE
TACKED ON TO THESE TICKETS THAT
YOU KNOW. MAYBE ORIGINALLY WERE
FIFTY DOLLARS BUT THEN YOU
START PUTTING COURT FEES IN
THIS FEE AND THAT FEE. THE NEXT
THING YOU KNOW THEY'RE THREE
FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS FIVE
HUNDRED DOLLARS NOT FOR A LOW
INCOME PERSON IS REALLY HARD.
THING TO OVERCOME SO I DO
BELIEVE THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT
THAT BUT I THINK THAT'S A
SEPARATE ISSUE FROM THIS BILL.
AND THEN SECONDLY THERE WAS A
COMPANION BILL TO THIS ABOUT
AUTOMATED SPEED ENFORCEMENT.
THAT DID NOT MAKE IT THROUGH
THE ASSEMBLY BUT I THINK THAT'S
AN IMPORTANT PART. BECAUSE WHEN
YOU HAVE THE AUTOMATED
ENFORCEMENT PIECE YOU ARE ABLE
TO REDUCE THOSE IN PERSON
INTERACTIONS. AND THOSE TICKETS
ARE MUCH LOWER THAN ANY TICKET
THAT WILL BE GIVEN BY A LIVE
OFFICER. SO I DO THINK THAT
CITIES NEED TO BE MINDFUL OF
WHERE THEY'RE ENFORCING THEY
SHOULD CERTAINLY BE ENFORCING
IN AREAS WHERE THEY'RE TRYING
TO BRING THE SPEED LIMITS DOWN.
THEY ALSO HAVE TOOLS AT THEIR
DISPOSAL IN MY CITY OF GLENDALE
IT'S VERY COMMON THAT THEY WILL
GIVE WARNINGS TO PEOPLE ON THE
FIRST OFFENSE WHEN IT COMES TO
SPEEDING. BECAUSE THEY'RE
REALLY TRYING TO DO AN
EDUCATION OUTREACH AND THIS IS
A POLICY. THAT THEY DID
DELIBERATELY TALKED ABOUT WITH
THE CITY COUNCIL THAT PEOPLE
WHO ARE. NOT A- SPEED. BUT
GOING. YOU KNOW. SEVEN TEN
MILES AN HOUR OVER THE SPEED
LIMIT IF THEY DON'T HAVE A
PREVIOUS. INFRACTION IN A MANY
TIMES IN GLENDALE THEY WILL GET
A WARNING. SO THERE ARE
POLICIES THAT CAN BE DONE BY
CITIES WHO WANT TO ADDRESS.
THIS CONCERN. BUT JUST BECAUSE
WE ARE CHANGING THE THRESHOLD
OF WHAT THE SPEED LIMIT IS.
DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU'RE
NECESSARILY GOING TO HAVE MORE
OFFICERS ON THE STREET OR MORE
ENFORCEMENT I THINK THAT'S
SOMETHING TO REALLY BE MINDFUL
OF- THERE DOES. THIS DOES THIS
BILL ISN'T THERE'S AN IN NO WAY
WILL ENCOURAGE CITIES TO GO OUT
AND HIRE MORE MOTORCYCLE
OFFICERS- SEND THEM TO
DIFFERENT AREAS IT'S REALLY
GOING TO BE THE SAME
ENFORCEMENT IN THE SAME AREAS.
BUT NOW THEY'LL HAVE THE TOOLS
HOPEFULLY. TO SEND SIGNALS TO
PEOPLE THAT THEY SHOULD BE
DRIVING AT A LOWER RATE OF
SPEED IN AN AREA. WHAT THANK
YOU FOR THAT AND I MIGHT HOPE
FOLKS WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
THE WARNINGS THAT YOU MENTION-
AND I DO HAVE A COURT FEE
WAIVER BILL THAT IS MAKING ITS
WAY THROUGH OUR PROCESS HERE SO
I APPRECIATE THAT- AS WELL ON-
ON FEES- IN THE END- THAT YOU
APPRECIATE YOU THINKING ABOUT
THIS AND I DO BELIEVE WE SHOULD
TRY TO A LOOK AT THAT WE TALK
ABOUT AUTOMATED SPEED- THEN
THAT'S FINE WE LOOK AT THAT IF
IT DOES HAVE LOWER TICKETS
BECAUSE WE KNOW THE RED LIGHT
CAMERAS HAVE MASSIVE FINES.
WHICH AGAIN ARE DEEPLY DEEPLY
INEQUITABLE SO I APPRECIATE
YOU- I DO THINK WE SHOULD LOOK
AT THAT ALL IN THE FUTURE SO
THANK YOU. THANK YOU IN A FIGHT
MAY I CENTER BECKER THIS
COMMITTEE I WOULD SAY DOES A
PRETTY GOOD JOB OF ENSURING
THAT WERE NOT BEING AS PUNITIVE
BUT THAT WERE BEING- MORE
EQUITABLE IN THE WAY THAT
WE'RE- IMPLEMENTING FEE
STRUCTURES- YOU'LL SEE THAT AND
MANY OF THE COMMITTEE ANALYSIS
AND SO THE COMMITTEE
CONSULTANTS HAVE DONE A GREAT
JOB. OF THAT- I DON'T SEE ANY
OTHER MIKES UP AT ALL JUST.
CLOSE BY SAYING- YOU STARTED AT
A VERY COLLABORATIVE SPACE AND
THIS IS WHAT I APPRECIATE ABOUT
THIS BILL THAT YOU HAD. STARTED
WITH THE VISION ZERO TASK
FORCE. COLLABORATIVE IN MANY
SPACES EQUITY PARTNERS LAW
ENFORCEMENT ALL THE PLAYERS
WERE AT THE TABLE. AND WE HEARD
FROM MANY OF THEM. AND AGAIN
THIS IS HOPEFULLY WILL
ENCOURAGE PLANS FOR THE LOCALS
TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE THEIR
STREETSCAPES IF THEY IF THEY
NEED TO. WHICH IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IS TO
INTERCHANGE THE ENGINEERING IF
NEED BE. TO ENSURE THAT
REDUCING TRAFFIC FATALITIES. SO
THANK YOU FOR THE BILL I SAID
CERTAINLY SUPPORTED AND IF
YOU'D LIKE TO CLOSE A FAMILY
MEMBER WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THAT.
I WOULD JUST SAY DO IT JUST TO
KEEP IN MIND THAT THE SPEED
LIMITS OUR- SERVER PURPOSE
THEY'RE THERE FOR A REASON-
AND- IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE
REVIEW WHAT THEIR FUNCTION IS
AND HOW THEY WORK. THE END
ROADS WERE DESIGNED AT A TIME
WHEN CARS WENT SLOWER. THEY
FELT LIKE THEY WERE GOING
FASTER THEY WERE FOR THE
OCCUPANT. AND IT'S ABSOLUTELY
IMPORTANT AS THE OPPOSITION
RAISE THAT CITIES FOCUS ON ST
ENGINEERING THAT IS KEY. BUT
THERE'S NOTHING IN THE LAW NOW
THAT REWARDS THAT INVESTMENT
WOULD BE ABILITY TO CAPTURE
LOWER SPEED LIMITS. ALONG WITH
THAT AND ALL OF THESE
DIFFERENT. MODALITIES NEED TO
BE SEEN IN CONCERT TOGETHER.
THE ENFORCEMENT THE EDUCATION.
BUT ALSO. THE SPEED LIMITS THEY
ALL HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY AND
CITIES FOR YEARS HAVE BEEN
STYMIED BY THIS. THIS BEING
FORCED TO RAISE SPEED LIMITS TO
ACCOMMODATE SPEEDING DRIVERS
AND FASTER CARS. CARS AND FUEL
MAKE THE ROOM FEEL SAFER THAN
IT ACTUALLY IS. AND THE RESULT
HAS BEEN ANINCREASE IN DEATHS
PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLIST DEATHS
CONSISTENTLY. OVER THE PAST
SEVERAL YEARS. IF WE HAVE FOUR
THOUSAND PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA
DYING EVERY YEAR IN PLANE
CRASHES WOULD PROBABLY GROUND
THE FLEET IN A MINUTE. BUT
SOMEHOW WE. ACCEPT THAT WHEN IT
COMES TO PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE
FATALITIES- AND WITH THAT I DID
IS ONE PIECE OF THAT PUZZLE AND
I URGE MY VOTE. THANK YOU THANK
YOU SOMETHING MEMBER DO YOU
HAVE A MOTION ON A. B. FORTY
THREE. MOTION BY SENATOR RUBIO
ALL RIGHT THANK YOU SENATOR-
MISTER CHIEF CONSULTANT CAN YOU
PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. THE
MOTION IS TO PASS AS AMENDED
AND REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE
ON APPROPRIATIONS. CENTER

BILL ON CALL THANK YOU AND WE
HAVE OUR NEXT BILL ALSO BY
ASSEMBLYWOMAN FRIEDMAN THAT'S
VIOLATED NUMBER. TEN EIGHTY
ELEVEN FORTY SEVEN. THANK YOU-
IT INSTEAD MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS I WANT TO THANK YOU AND
YOUR STAFF FOR YOUR HELP WITH
THIS BILL. AB ELEVEN FORTY
SEVEN TAKES A MULTI FACETED
APPROACH TO CIRCLE FORNEY ON
THE COURSE TO MEET ITS
GREENHOUSE EMISSION REDUCTION
TARGETS. BY MAKING CHANGES AT
THE STATE LOCAL AND REGIONAL
LEVEL TO PROVIDE TOOLS
ACCOUNTABILITY AND INCENTIVES.
TO METROPOLITAN PLANNING
ORGANIZATIONS NPOS TO MEET
THERE TWENTY TWENTY THREE
REGIONAL GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSION TARGETS. S. B. THREE
SEVENTY FIVE BY DARRELL
STEINBERG IN TWO THOUSAND EIGHT
ABOUT SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES
WAS A FIRST OF ITS KIND AND
GROUNDBREAKING LAW THAT
RECOGNIZES THE CRUCIAL ROLE. OF
INTEGRATING TRANSPORTATION LAND
USE AND HOUSING DECISIONS TO
MEET UR CLIMATE GOALS
BASICALLY TO DESIGN OUR CITIES
IN SUCH A WAY THAT WE GIVE
PEOPLE MORE OPTIONS TO WALK AND
BIKE. HOWEVER THE REPORTS FROM
THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD THE LA-
AND OTHERS HAS SAID THAT AS
WELL INTENTIONED AS THAT BILL
WAS IT'S NOT HASN'T YET
ACHIEVED. REALLY AT SCHOOL AND
OUR ADMISSIONS FROM
TRANSPORTATION CONTINUE TO
CLIMB. ELEVEN FORTY SEVEN
REQUIRES THE NPOS TO CREATE A
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE TARGET-ACTION PLAN TO DEVELOP AND IT
ALSO DEVELOPS A BLOCK GRANT
PROGRAM. TO PROVIDE FUNDING TO
THOSE NPOS TO ACHIEVE THOSE
GOALS. AND THE REASON WE LEAVE
IT UP TO AND THEN HE OWES
BECAUSE ADMISSION EMISSION
REDUCTIONS ARE GOING TO LOOK
VERY DIFFERENT IN THE CENTRAL
VALLEY THAN THE LOOKING OVER
LOS ANGELES. THEN LOOK IN SAN
FRANCISCO ALL OF THESE
COMMUNITIES HAVE WAYS OF
REDUCING VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED. AND THIS BILL GIVES.
THEM FUNDING TO HELP ACHIEVE
THAT- THE BUDGET CONTAINED
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS FOR
BLOCK GRANTS TO IMPLEMENT. S.
C. O. S. AND WE'RE IN
DISCUSSIONS WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION AND THE BUDGET
STUFF ABOUT THIS BILL. AND HOW
IT INTERSECTS WITH THE BUDGET
PROPOSAL. IF THE TRAILER BILLS
VOTED ON LATER THIS WEEK WE
WILL SUBMIT AMENDMENTS TO
REMOVE THE BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
AND ALIGN THE BILL TO THE
BUDGET ACTION SO WE'VE BEEN IN
CONVERSATION WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION. ABOUT HOW THIS
BILL INTEGRATES WITH THEIR
GOALS AND THEIR BUDGET. IN
ADDITION WE PLAN ON PROVIDING
AUTHORS AMENDMENTS TO THE
SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE
THAT WILL ADJUST THE USE OF THE
TERM VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED. TO
CONSIDER ALL THE RAMIFICATIONS
OF BMT REDUCTION ON JOBS IN THE
ECONOMY AND LOW INCOME
COMMUTERS. WITH THESE
AMENDMENTS WE BELIEVE THAT THE
OPPOSITION WILL HOPEFULLY GO
NEUTRAL ON THE BILL. WE HAVE A
GROUP OF BILLS HERE TO TALK TO
US ABOUT THIS BILL BILL MCGEE
EVEN FROM THE COALITION FOR
CLEAN AIR. AND BILL HIGGINS
FROM CAL COG IN SUPPORT WITH
THAT IRISH AND I BOTH THINK
THANK YOU ASSEMBLYMEMBER THAT
FIRST MODERATOR WE HAVE MISTER
BILL MCGOVERN. WITH THE
COALITION FOR CLEAN AIR. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH MADAM CHAIR THIS
IS BILL MCGOVERN WITH COALITION
FOR CLEAN AIR AND WE STRONGLY
SUPPORT. THE B. ELEVEN FORTY
SEVEN BECAUSE IT WOULD
SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THE
STATE'S EFFORTS. TO PROVIDE
TRANSPORTATION CHOICES. THAT
REDUCE HARMFUL AIR ND CLIMATE
POLLUTION. AS WELL AS VEHICLE
MILES TRAVELED. CALIFORNIA WELL
WE'VE LED THE NATION IN
APPLYING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES
TO VEHICLE ENGINES AND
PROMOTING INNOVATION IN
TRANSPORTATION FUELS. WE HAVE
STRUGGLED TO ALIGN LAND USE.
WITH THE NEED TO REDUCE VEHICLE
MILES TRAVELED. AND ITS
CORRESPONDING EMISSIONS THAT
ARE CAUSING. THE TWIN CRISES OF
AIR POLLUTION AND CLIMATE
CHANGE. THE PASSAGE OF SB THREE
SEVENTY FIVE- AS MISTREATMENT
SAID. RAISED HOPES FOR A
PARADIGM SHIFT BUT THAT WAS NOT
A BIG DEAL BEING IT'S INTENDED
CLIMATE HEALTH EQUITY AND
CONSERVATION RESULTS. OF THE
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR IS THE
LEADING SOURCE OF ERROR IN
CLIMATE SOLUTION WE DO NEED TO
REDUCE VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED
AND THIS BILL WOULD MAKE THE
FIRST REALLY IMPORTANT
IMPROVEMENTS IN SP THREE
SEVENTY FIVE. IN THE THIRTEEN
YEARS SINCE IT IS PAST. IT
WOULD GET THE BILL WITH THE
DIFFERENT GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES
TALKING TO EACH OTHER WHICH IS
CRUCIAL. AND ALSO WELL I THINK
THERE'S A LOT OF DISAGREEMENT
ON THE ISSUE OF VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED SOMETHING THAT WE ALL
AGREE ON IS THAT WE NEED MORE
FUNDING. FOR SUSTAINABLE
COMMUNITIES AND THIS BILL WOULD
HAVE THE FUNDING AND DIRECTED
IN THE RIGHT WAY. WE ALSO ARE
IN SUPPORT OF FIFTEEN MINUTE
COMMUNITIES AND- BICYCLE
HIGHWAYS AND SO FOR ALL THOSE
REASONS WE SUPPORT THIS BILL
THANK YOU. THANK YOU MR
MCGOVERN- NEXT WE HAVE MISTER
BILL HIGGINS FROM CAL COG. GOOD
MORNING THIS IS BILL HIGGINS
FROM THE CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION
COUNCIL THE GOVERNMENT THAT
REPRESENTS A REGIONAL
TRANSPORTATION PLANNING
AGENCIES ACROSS THE STATE AND
ALSO ALL EIGHTEEN METROPOLITAN
PLANNING ORGANIZATIONS
RESPONSIBLE FOR THIRTY THREE
SEVENTY FIVE. FIRST OF ALL WE
WANT TO THANK ASSEMBLYMEMBER
FRIEDMAN FOR HER LEADERSIP HER
WILLINGNESS TO DIG DOWN IN HERE
ALL THE PERSPECTIVES IT'S BEEN
GREAT TO WORK WITH OUR WE HAVE
HAD A FEW COMMANDMENTS POSITION
FROM THE BEGINNING APPRECIATING
HER WORK. BECAUSE OUR BOARDS
ARE MADE UP OF CITY AND COUNTY
OFFICIALS AND THEY HAD SOME
CONCERNS AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING
WITH THEM MY UNDERSTANDING IS
WHAT THE AUTHORS AMENDMENT
SUGGESTING THAT THOSE. WILL BE
OUR CONCERNS WILL BE ADDRESSED
AND WE'RE TAKING THE WIN LET IT
OUT WE'RE TAKING THAT TO OUR
BOARD AND I ANTICIPATE A CHANGE
POSITION VERY SHORTLY BUT I
WANTED TO SAY- ONE THING A
COUPLE OF THE THINGS THAT THIS
BILL REALLY DOES. THAT WORK CUT
IT OUT FIRST OF ALL THE BLOCK
GRANT PROGRAM THAT IN THE
BUDGET THAT- SIMPLY MEMBER HAS
BEEN LEADING ON IS ONE THING
THAT WE'VE BEEN ASKING FOR
TWELVE YEARS A LOT OF FOLKS
THAT SAID WELL THREE SEVENTY
FIVE DOING EVERYTHING THAT IT
SHOULD. IT'S NEVER BEN FUNDED
THE WAY IT'S ABOUT TO BE FUNDED
AND WE ARE EXCITED TO SEE THE
RESULTS. THE SECOND THING IS
THOSE SMALL CHANGE IN THE
LANGUAGE THAT DEALS WITH HOW
THE STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNCIL
WILL ANALYZE THE STATE
TRANSPORTATION PLAN- AND IT IS
IN A WAY THAT I. THINK IS
REALLY RELEVANT TO THIS
COMMITTEE- THE-STAKES. PLAN IS
NOW UP THIS WEEK. STOCKMAN FOR
OUR REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION
PLAN FOR THIS YEAR THE CARD THE
DIFFERENCES. WITH BOTH TRY AND
ACHIEVE THE MOST WE CAN BUT IN
A PICKLE CONSTRAINED DOCUMENT
YOU CAN ONLY DO IT WITH THE
EXPECTED REVENUES. ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT THIS BILL THAT IS
ANALYZED THAT DIFFERENCE. AND
TO GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE OF ONE
OF THE THINGS OUR MEMBERS ARE
STRUGGLING WITH- WE EMBRACE THE
TRANSITION TO ELECTRIC
VEHICLES. BUT WE'RE ALSO
CONCERNED THAT IN OUR
TRANSPORTATION PLANS THAT ARE
ON THE BOOKS RIGHT NOW. WE'VE
MADE SOME REVENUE ASSUMPTIONS
ABOUT GAS TAXES THAT WON'T
MATERIALIZES IN THE TRANSITION
TO ELECTRIC VEHICLES. AND
THERE'S NO BACK BILLING WHEN WE
LOOK OUT IN THE OUT YEARS WE
HAVE A LOT OF MITIGATION
STRATEGIES THAT WE'RE THINKING
ABOUT THAT WILL BE. AT THE
STATE WILL BE ONE TO FOUR
BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR SHORT ON
BECAUSE THEY WILL BE THE GAS
TAX REVENUES TO FILL IT OUT. WE
THINK THAT- THIS STUDY WILL
ALLOW US TO DO LIKE SOME OF
THOSE ISSUES TO TALK ABOUT
THOSE ISSUES SO THAT WE CAN
PLAN AHEAD. SO THAT WE CAN HAVE
A WELL FUNDED. SUSTAINABLE
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM NOT ONLY
NOW BUT GOING TO TWENTY FORTY
SO WE APPRECIATE- MISTREATMENT
LEADERSHIP ON THAT. AND THANK
YOU FOR OFFERING THIS BILL

ASSEMBLY MEMBER. COMMITTING
MADAM CHAIR AND COLLEAGUES THIS
IS ASSEMBLY BILL SEVEN TWENTY
THREE WHICH WOULD ALLOW THE
DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES TO
ESTABLISH A RECIPROCAL DRIVER'S
LICENSE AGREEMENT. BETWEEN
CALIFORNIA AND OTHER COUNTRIES.
CLOSE TO THIRTY STATES ALREADY
HAVE SUCH PROGRAMS IN PLACE I'M
HOPE TO CREATE NEW
OPPORTUNITIES FOR COUNTRIES TO
CREATE RECIPROCAL AGREEMENTS
WITH ME TODAY IS THE STEAM
CONSUL GENERAL OF JAPAN CONSUL
GENERAL MYERS. WITH RESPECT WE

CONSUL GENERAL WELCOME THANK
YOU FOR JOINING US IF YOU GO
THROUGH THE- GO GO. BUT I'M
SURE THE LOCAL COMMITTEE
MEMBERS GOOD MORNING BUT I'M
STILL REMINDED POSITIONAL
DISCIPLINE IS OF A CISCO. I'M
VERY MUCH HONORED AND GRATEFUL
FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS
THEIR OPINION ABOUT THE EIGHTY
SEVEN TO THREE ON BEHALF OF THE
JAPANESE GOVERNMENT. WHICH THAT
WE EXPECT THAT IF THE BILL AB
SEVEN TWENTY THREE HIS PAST OF
THE BURDEN ASSOCIATED WITH
GETTING DRIVER'S LICENSES
REDUCED THE QUALITY OF LIVES
OF JAPANESE PEOPLE LIVING IN
CALIFORNIA AND CALIFORNIA
PEOPLE LIVING IN JAPAN. FLUTE
CERTAINLY REDUCED. WELL WE SAW
IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE WOULD
BE TO BE PROVED BY THE MALL AS
A RESULT THIS DEPARTMENT
BECAUSE MANY RELATIONS WILL BE
STRENGTHENED IN THE AREAS OF
BUSINESS TOURISM. AND MANY
OTHERS. SYSTEM IS THE LARGEST
FOREIGN INVESTOR IN CALIFORNIA.
MANY JAPANESE BUSINESSPERSONS
HAVE COME TO LIVE AND DO
BUSINESS IN CALIFORNIA. I HOPE
THIS BILL IF IT COMES. INTO
EFFECT. WILL FURTHER TO A GREAT
JAPANESE COMPANIES AN INFANT
INTO PRINTERS TO INVEST AND
OPERATE IN CALIFORNIA. HELLO
BOYS FOR THE CURRENT ONE AND
CONFLICTS. BUT AS OF TODAY
JAPAN HAS SYMBOLS HE'S WITH
TWENTY NINE COUNTRIES AND
REGIONS FULL RECIPROCAL PARTS
OF THE ENGINE. OF THE
EXAMINATION OF THE FULL
DRIVER'S LICENSE. TO BURN AS
EMBASSIES WITH THE SIX U. S.
STATES NAMELY INDIANA OHIO
VIRGINIA POLITE MARILYN AND
WASHINGTON. THE LOCAL SIMS OF
COMMERCE INDUSTRIES HAVE OPENLY
EXPRESSED THEIR APPRECIATION
FOR THE EXEMPTION THE FULL. THE
JAPANESE GOVERNMENT IS VERY
MUCH INTERESTED IN PURSUING
SUCH INTIMACY WITH THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. BUT I HOPE THIS
BILL WOULD ENCOURAGE SUCH
ANIMAL C. HOWEVER TAKING THIS
OPPORTUNITY I'D LIKE TO DRAW
THE ATTENTION O THE HONORABLE
COMMITTEE MEMBERS TO THE
FOLLOWING THREE POINTS. FIRST
THIS BILL REQUIRES DRIVER'S
LICENSES ISSUED IN FOREIGN
COUNTRIES TO BE SURRENDERED TO
CUT THROUGH ANY AUTHORITIES OR
DESTROYED. THIS COULD CAUSE A
MAJOR PROBLEM FOR THOSE WHO
TRAVEL BETWEEN CULTURAL AND IN
JAPAN. ALL THOSE WHO RETURNED
TO JAPAN AFTER A PERIOD OF
RESIDENCE IN CALIFORNIA BECAUSE
OF THAT THERE'S NO SUCH
REQUIREMENT INTIMACIES BETWEEN
JAPAN AND THE ABOVE MENTIONED
SIX STATES IN THE UNITED STATES.
SECOND THE BILL IS SUPPOSED TO
EXAMINE THE PRACTICAL
EXAMINATION. BUT IN THE
EMBASSY'S BETWEEN JAPAN AND THE
OTHER SIX STATES THE WRITTEN
EXAMINATION. ALSO NEW TO THE-
ISN'T IT. THE THIRD. THE BILL
REQUIRES AN AUTHORIZATION OF
THE DRIVER'S LICENSE BUT THE
DIPLOMATIC MISSION IN THE U. S.
BUT IN SOME CASES THIS IS NOT
REQUIRED IN OTHER STATES. IN
CLOSING. I'D LIKE TO REITERATE
OUR SUPPORT IN PRINCIPLE FOR
THE EIGHTY SEVEN TO THREE. AND
WE VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THE
INITIATIVE TAKEN BY.
ASSEMBLYMEMBER LITTLE TO
INTRODUCE THIS BILL. OF COURSE

THIRTEEN OH TWO WELCOME. THANK
YOU SENATOR. SENATORS CHAIR AND
MEMBERS- EIGHTY THIRTEEN OH TWO
CODIFIES REGULATIONS THAT THE
BUREAU OF CANNABIS CONTROL
ADOPTED WITH RESPECT TO
CANNABIS ADVERTISING ALONG
HIGHWAYS. SPECIFICALLY THIS
BILL WILL ALLOW CANNABIS
LICENSEES TO ADVERTISE OR
MARKET ONE OF BILLBOARDS ALONG
THE HIGHWAY THAT IS FURTHER
THAN FIFTEEN MILE RADIUS FROM
CALIFORNIA VOTERS BORDER. WHICH
IN PROP SIXTY FOUR STATES THE
LICENSEE SHALL NOT ADVERTISE OR
MARKET ON A BILLBOARD OR
SIMILAR ADVERTISING DEVICE
LOCATED ON INTERSTATE OR STATE
HIGHWAY THAT CROSSES THE
CALIFORNIA BORDER. THIS IS
ALREADY PROBLEMATIC BECAUSE
STATE HIGHWAYS DON'T CROSS THE
BORDER. IN TWENTY NINETEEN THE
BUREAU OF CANNABIS CONTROL
CONCLUDED THE PROP SIXTY FOUR
DOES NOT CLARIFY TO WHAT EXTENT
SUCH PROHIBITIONS WOULD TAKE
PLACE FELT THAT A FIFTEEN MILE
RADIUS WAS APPROPRIATE. TWO
THINGS I'D LIKE TO NOTE MY
STAKEHOLDERS REACHED OUT TO
SOME OF THE ORIGINAL DRAFTERS
OF PROPOSITION SIXTY FOUR. TO
SEE IF THEY COULD SHARE
BACKGROUND AND WHY THE LANGUAGE
WAS ADDED AND NONE COULD RECALL.
MY SUPPORTERS AND I FIND IT
DIFFICULT TO COMPREHEND THAT WE
WOULD FORMALLY LEGALIZED
INDUSTRY. BUT MAKE
ADVERTISEMENT SO RESTRICTIVE
THAT IT WOULD ESSENTIALLY
PROHIBIT THEM FROM ADVERTISING
ALTOGETHER. UNFORTUNATELY THE
BUREAU'S REGULATIONS WERE
CHALLENGED IN THE ST LOUIS
OBISPO COURT WHICH RULED THAT
THE BUREAU LACKED AUTHORITY IN
IMPLEMENTING THESE REGULATIONS.
MY SUPPORTERS AND I
FUNDAMENTALLY DISAGREE ON THIS
POINT WHICH IS WHY THIS BILL
WILL FORMALLY CODIFY THESE
REGULATIONS. I THOUGHT THE
DECISION ISSUED BY THE JUDGE IN
THE FORMER CASE PROHIBITS
BILLBOARDS ALONG FOUR THOUSAND
MILES OF INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS
INCLUDING I. FIVE I. TEN AND I.
EIGHTY. ADVERTISEMENT IS A
LISLE ALLOWED ALONG ALL
SEGMENTS OF I. FOUR OH FIVE I
SEVEN TEN I. EIGHT EIGHTY FIVE
FIVE EIGHTY HIGHWAY THIRTY
SEVEN. CALIFORNIA STATE ROUTE.
FOURTEEN ONE SEVENTY SEVEN
EIGHTY NINE JUST TO NAME A FEW.
FOR SERIOUS ABOUT CLOSING THE
DOORON THE ILLICIT MARKET
WHICH IS WERE MINORS GIVE
ACCESS TO CANNABIS WITH UNKNOWN
CONTAMINANTS. WE NEED TO MAKE
SURE WE HELP THE LEGAL MARKET
GROW AND SURVIVE. A. B.

PATHWAYS FOR LEGAL CANNABIS

THIRTEEN OF TWO. THREE NINE

WE'LL TAKE IT BACK TO MEMBERS
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS- FOR
THE ASSEMBLY MEMBER. OKAY YOU
SEE NOT AT THIS TIME ASSEMBLY
MEMBER WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLOSE.
YES ON AGAIN THANKS VERY MUCH
FOR HEARING THIS BILL- I'D LIKE
TO EMPHASIZE THAT. CHILDREN
HAVE BEEN GETTING- MARIJUANA
CANNABIS FOR YEARS FIVE A FORTY
YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND A THIRTY
FOUR YEAR OLD SON MY DAUGHTER
WAS EXPOSED TO CANNABIS WHILE
IN HIGH SCHOOL BEING SOLD ON
OUR CAMPUS MY SON WAS EXPOSED
TO A MIDDLE SCHOOL. THIS IS
BECAUSE WE HAVE AN ILLEGAL
INDUSTRY. WE ARE PREVENTING THE
LEGAL INDUSTRY WHICH DOES NOT
SELL TO CHILDREN FROM
FLOURISHING IF WE KEEP THIS BAN
ON I. TEN I. EIGHTY I. FIVE. SO
I WOULD JUST ASK YOU TO HELP US
SUPPORT THE LEGAL INDUSTRY.
I'LL ALSO POINT OUT THAT WHAT
CAN BE PUT ON THESE BILLS
BILLBOARDS IS HIGHLY REGULATED
NOTHING THAT APPEAL TO CHILDREN
CAN DO IT FURTHERMORE 72% OF
THE PEOPLE WHO THE REGULATION
IS SUCH THAT 72% AT LEAST OF
THE PEOPLE WHO SEE THIS HAVE TO
BE ADULTS- WE BELIEVE. THAT IT
IS VERY ARD TO INTERPRET. A
BILL WHICH AS YOU CAN ADVERTISE
ON THE STATE HIGHWAY. THAT
CROSSES THE BORDER WHEN NO
STATE HIGHWAY DOES. WE DON'T
THINK THAT WHOEVER PUT THAT IN.
HAD ANY INTENTION OF ALLOWING-
THE ADVERTISEMENTS ON THE FOUR
OH FIVE FOUR EIGHTY EIGHTY BUT
NOT ON EIGHTY FOUR NOT ON FIVE.
SO WHAT'S THERE IT'S VERY HARD
TO INTERPRET WE THINK THAT THE-
AGENCY IN CHARGE GOT THIS RIGHT
WHICH IS WHY WE'RE PROPOSING
THIS. AND AGAIN WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT WHOEVER PUT THAT IN HAD
MINE BECAUSE IT SIMPLY WASN'T.
PUT DOWN. HAVING GONE THROUGH A
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS I DOUBT
ANYTHING WITHOUT WORDING WOULD
HAVE GOT THROUGH. SO I THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
ATTENTION- WHEN THERE WERE ALSO
SOME STUDIES ABOUT THIS AND
THAT AND CLAIMS- I COULD JUST
SAY THAT CORRELATION IS NOT THE
SAME AS CAUSATION. I CAN SAY
THAT THERE ARE LOTS OF STUDIES
THAT SHOW IN FACT THAT CANNABIS
IS NOT- SOMETHING WHICH- ARE
IMPAIRED DRIVERS SHOULD ANYWAY
I LIKE THE WAY HAT- CANADA
THAT ALCOHOL DOES. I COULD SURE
USE STUDIES AND ALL SORTS OF
THINGS BUT RIGHT NOW WHAT I'M
ASKING IS THAT WE SUPPORT THE
LEGAL INDUSTRY SO WILL OUT
COMPETE THE ILLEGAL INDUSTRY
WHICH SELLS TO OUR KIDS THAT'S
THE BOTTOM LINE THANK YOU.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THAT A
CLARIFICATION ASSEMBLY MEMBER

EFFECTIVENESS WHEN CALIFORNIA
LAUNCHED THE NEW MOTOR VOTER
PROGRAM IN APRIL TWENTY
EIGHTEEN IT BECAME THE LARGEST
AND ONE OF THE FIRST STATES TO
IMPLEMENT AUTOMATIC. VOTER
REGISTRATION TO THE DMV. NEW
MOTOR VOTER HAS MADE IT EASIER
FOR ELIGIBLE VOTERS TO REGISTER
OR UPDATE THEIR REGISTRATION
WHEN COMPLETING A DRIVER'S
LICENSE AND STATE
IDENTIFICATION CARD
APPLICATIONS. IT IS PLAYED AN
INSTRUMENTAL ROLE IN CLOSING
VOTER REGISTRATION GAPS. AS
WELL AS IMPROVING THE ACCURACY
OF VOTERS MAILING ADDRESSES
WHICH IS CRUCIAL TO INCREASING
ACCESS TO VOTE BY MAIL VOTING.
BETWEEN APRIL TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN IN JANUARY TWENTY
TWENTY ONE MORE THAN TWELVE
MILLION NEW OR UPDATED VOTER
REGISTRATIONS RESULTED FROM THE
NEW MOTOR VOTER PROGRAM.
DESPITE THE SUCCESSES
CHALLENGES WITH MODERNIZING THE

THE PROGRAM THREE YEARS AGO
THERE'S BEEN ALMOST FOURTEEN
MILLION NEW OR UPDATED VOTER

INDIAN OCEAN ABOUT. TWELVE
MILLION- MENTIONED IN THE LAST
YEAR THAT INCLUDES ABOUT TEN

OUR ELIGIBLE POPULATIONS. HOW
DESPITE THESE ADVANCES. MORE

REMAIN UNREGISTERED AND
UNFORTUNATELY A

STATE AND FEDERAL ELECTIONS
WELL. UNFORTUNATELY HOWEVER
THESE REQUIREMENTS WHICH HAVE

THIRTEEN EIGHTY NINE. WILL
MODERNIZE THE CALIFORNIA ENERGY
COMMISSION'S CLEAN
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM. BY
REVISING THE PROGRAM TO SUPPORT
INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS IN THE
CLEAN TRANSPORTATION SECTOR
INVESTMENTS IN OUR MOST
POLLUTED AREAS. THE CLEAN
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM HAS BEEN
A CRITICAL TOOL TO ADVANCING
CLEAN VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY IN
CALIFORNIA THE PROGRAM IS
TECHNOLOGY AND FUEL NEUTRAL.
AND IS MEANT TO DEPLOY
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES THAT
TRANSFORM CALIFORNIA'S FUEL AND
VEHICLE TYPES. EIGHTY THIRTEEN
EIGHTY NINE WILL INCORPORATE
PROGRAM CHANGES THAT WILL FOCUS
INVESTMENTS IN. ONE ADDRESSING
INFRASTRUCTURE GAPS IN THE IN
THE CLEAN LIGHT DUTY VEHICLE
MARKET TO SUPPORT
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE EMERGING
CLEAN MEDIUM AND HEAVY DUTY
VEHICLE FREIGHT INDUSTRY. AND
THREE DEDICATE 5050% OF FUNDING
TO PROJECTS LOCATED IN AND
BENEFITING DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES AND LOW INCOME
COMMUNITIES. CALIFORNIA HAS
SOME OF THE WORST AIR QUALITY
IN THE COUNTRY MANY OF THESE
AIR POLLUTANTS COME FROM THE
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR THE SAN
JOAQUIN VALLEY AND THE SOUTH
COAST AIR BASIN ARE CURRENTLY
CLASSIFIED AS EXTREME NON
ATTAINMENT AREAS THE WORST
CLASSIFICATION. UNDER THE
FEDERAL CLEAN AIR ACT MANY
OTHER PARTS OF THE STATE SUCH
AS THE BAY AREA AND SACRAMENTO
RANGE FROM MODERATE TO SEVERE
NON ATTAINMENT. CLEANING UP THE
TRANSPORTATION SECTOR IS AT THE
INTERSECTION OF ENVIRONMENTAL
JUSTICE AND ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT. URBANIZING THIS
INDUSTRY WILL HELP CLEAN THE
AIR FOR COMMUNITIES AND HELP
THE STATE MEET ITS CLIMATE
GOALS HERE TO TESTIFY IN
SUPPORT OF THIS BILL TODAY IS
MEREDITH ALEXANDER WITH CAL
START. HIS ALEXANDER'S HERE AND
PRESENT IN THE GALLERY A PLEASE
PROCEED WITH ALEXANDER. GOOD
MORNING CHAIRMAN WALLIS AND
COMMITTEE MEMBERS I'M HERE TO
HELP XANDER POLICY DIRECTOR FOR
CAL START HERE IS THE SPONSOR
OF EIGHTY THIRTEEN EIGHTY NINE.
FIRST WE WISH TO THANK SENATOR
GONZALEZ FOR HER LEADERSHIP AND
OF COURSE ASSEMBLY MEMBER RAY
S. HER TEAM AND THE COMMITTEE
STAFF WHO WORKED HARD WITH US
ON THIS POLICY. CAN START AS A
MEMBER BASED NONPROFIT WITH
OVER TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY
MEMBERS DEDICATED TO
TRANSFORMING TRANSPORTATION.
INCLUDING VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS
ZERO EMISSION AN ALTERNATE FUEL
PRODUCERS PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
FLEETS AND MORE. THE ENERGY
COMMISSION'S CLEAN
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM HAS BEEN
A CRITICALELEMENT OF OUR
STATE'S TRANSPORTATION CLEAN
AIR AND CLIMATE PROGRAMS. IT IS
TECHNOLOGY NEUTRAL AND HAS
HELPED ADVANCE VEHICLE AND
FEELING TECHNOLOGIES HOWEVER WE
PASSED MANY LANDMARK CLIMATE
LAWS SINCE THE PROGRAM WAS
ESTABLISHED ALMOST FIFTEEN
YEARS AGO. AND WE'VE ADOPTED
AMBITIOUS MANDATES FOR CLEAN
VEHICLES AND VEHICLE EMISSIONS
REDUCTION TARGETS. SO TO
REFLECT THESE NEW REALITIES IT
ONLY MAKES SENSE TO MODIFYING
THE STATUTE GUIDING THIS
PROGRAM TO ENSURE THAT IT
REFLECTS OUR GOALS. AND MARKET
TRENDS THIS BILL DOES JUST
THAT. FOR EXAMPLE THIS BILL
WILL ENSURE THAT WE'RE ABLE TO
ACCELERATE ZERO EMISSION CAR
TRUCK AND BUS ADOPTION. WHICH
IS WHY MANY EVEY AND HYDROGEN
FUEL CELL TRUCK AND BUS
MANUFACTURERS SUPPORT THIS
BILL. THIS BILL IS TECHNOLOGY
NEUTRAL AND FUEL NEUTRAL AND
DOES NOT INCLUDE CARVE OUTS FOR
SPECIFIC TECHNOLOGIES WHICH THE
MAJORITY OF STAKEHOLDERS AGREE
IS CRITICAL. THE RECENT
AMENDMENTS TAKE AN ADDRESS THE
NEED TO ENSURE EQUITABLE ACCESS
TO CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE AND
CLEAN TRANSPORTATION. BY
ENSURING THAT HALF OF PROGRAM
FUNDS WILL BENEFIT
DISADVANTAGED AND LOW INCOME
COMMUNITIES IT'S FOR THESE
REASONS WE ARE HAPPY TO SPONSOR
THIS BILL. WE'RE COMMITTED TO
CONTINUING DISCUSSIONS WITH
STAKEHOLDERS TO MAKE FURTHER
ENHANCEMENTS WHILE KEEPING THE
BILL TECHNOLOGY NEUTRAL. THANK

PERSON THAT WISHES TO TESTIFY
IN OPPOSITION. DO NOT SEE
ANYONE NOR IAN ROOM ONE TWELVE.
THEN WE WILL BRING IT BACK TO
THE COMMITTEE ANY QUESTIONS-
SENATOR WHITE COUNTY. YEAH
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR I'M- THE
STAFF REPORT HIGHLIGHTS ON PAGE
FOUR UNDER A POINT NUMBER
THREE- PROGRAM OUTCOMES AND
POLICIES AND AS OF LAST MAY
THEY INDICATE HOW MUCH IS IN
REFUELLING INFRASTRUCTURE
ALTERNATIVE FUEL VEHICLES AND
THEN THEY HAVE ALTERNATIVE FUEL
PRODUCTION THAT'S WHAT I WOULD
LIKE TO FOCUS IN ON WHAT MY
QUESTION IS 20% OF THE MONIES
NOW I HAVE BEEN AWARDED TO.
ALTERNATIVE FUEL PRODUCTION SO
NOW I'M ON THE- PAGE ELEVEN OF
THE BILL THIS IS STARTS UP WITH
SECTION THREE WHICH- BEGINS
WITH THIS INVESTMENT CYCLE IN
TWENTY TWENTY TO TWENTY TWENTY
FIVE TALKS ABOUT THE COMMISSION
SHALL EXPEND 50% OF THE MONEY
IS APPROPRIATED. THROUGH THIS
ALTERNATIVE FUEL PUMP PRODUCT
PROGRAMS THAT DIRECTLY BENEFIT
OR SERVE RESIDENTS A
DISADVANTAGE LOW INCOME
COMMUNITIES AND LOW INCOME
CALIFORNIANS AND AT LEAST 50%
OF THOSE LOW LOCATION BASED
INVESTMENTS THAT CAN BE
EXPANDED. IN DISADVANTAGED IN
LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES SO I SEE
THE VALUE IN THE LOCATION OF
ZEV CHARGING STATIONS AND ALL
THAT I'M LOOKING AT THE FUEL
PRODUCTION BECAUSE AT LEAST. IN
THE BAY AREA WE HAVE BECAUSE OF
A COASTAL BREEZE WE HAVE A LOT
OF AREAS WHERE THEY HAVE A
REFINERY THAT DOESN'T ACTUALLY
FALL INTO A QUOTE UNQUOTE.
ENVIRO SCREEN DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES WERE TRYING TO GET
DIFFERENT DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS
SO THAT. AND THEN I GUESS AT
SOME UNIVERSITIES OR SOMEBODY
WHO'S LOOKING TO ALT TO DEVELOP
ALTERNATIVE FUELS AND HAS. HAS
INVESTED IN ALTERNATIVE FUELS
THAT WAS WORKING WITH UC
RIVERSIDE OR UC DAVIS FARMERS
SAID THAT MIGHT NOT BE LOCATED
IN THE QUOTE UNQUOTE.
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES BUT
THAT'S THE FIGHT IS DEFINED BY
THE BY THE ENVIRO SCREEN SO
I'M- I'M WORRIED ABOUT IS THAT
GOING TO IT I GUESS EITHER THE
BILL WHAT I'M READING IT THIS
WILL ASKING QUESTIONS THAT THEY
WOULD NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY OF
THIS MONEY FOR THE ALTERNATIVE
FUEL PRODUCTION. NOT THE BUT
THE LOCATION OF THE THINGS BUT
THE ACTUAL PRODUCTION BECAUSE
SOME OF THAT STUFF. IS NOT EASY
TO MOVE. AND I WOULD WONDER IF
THE AUTHOR OR- THE- UPSTART.
FOR HILLSIDE FAMILY MEMORY IF
WOULD YOU LIKE TO RESPOND TO
THAT IT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION
I WOULD ASK DAD TO MEREDITH
ALEXANDER WOULD YOU ASSIST US
WITH THAT PLEASE. SURE HAPPY
TAIL HI AGAIN MEREDITH
ALEXANDER FOR CAL STAR- THANK
YOU SENATOR MURKOWSKI FOR THOSE
QUESTIONS SO. ONE THING OF NOTE
IS THAT THE CURRENT 20%
REQUIREMENT. IS FOR LIGHT DUTY
HYDROGEN FUELING- AND SO
FUELING STATION LOCATED IN A
DISADVANTAGE FOR LOW INCOME
COMMUNITY. WOULD COUNT TOWARDS
THAT 50% OF PHYSICAL
INVESTMENTS LOCATED IN ONE OF
THOSE COMMUNITIES SO.
NOTEWORTHY THAT IT IS NOT JUST
D. A. SEES AS DEFINED BY
CAROLINE VIRUS SCREEN BUT ALSO
LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES. AND WE
RECOGNIZE THAT NOT ALL- PROGRAM
EXPENDITURES YOU KNOW HOW THIS
LOCATION BASED ELEMENT. AND SO
THAT'S WHY WE'RE GIVING
GUIDANCE TO THE COMMISSION BUT
IF THIS IS SOME TANGIBLE
LOCATION BASED INVESTMENT. BUT
YOU LOOK AT ON BALANCE OVER
MULTIPLE YEARS PUTTING 50% OF
THE FUNDS INTO THOSE
COMMUNITIES. SO WE HOPE THAT
WILL STRIKE THE RIGHT BALANCE
AND ENSURE THAT THOSE REALLY
CRITICAL RESEARCH PROGRAMS AT
THOSE UNIVERSITIES- THAT AREN'T
TANGIBLE LOCATION BASED.
WOULDN'T COUNT IN THAT
CALCULATION- AND WE'RE ALSO
PROVIDING IN THE BILL THAT BOTH
THE EXISTING PROGRAM ADVISORY
BOARD AND THE DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES ADVISORY BOARD TO
HELP THE COMMISSION. FURTHER
INTERPRET- WHAT. QUALIFIES. FOR
BOTH OF THOSE 50% PROVISIONS.
OKAY YEAH BECAUSE I MEAN I GET
THE HYDROGEN FUEL STATIONS
THAT'S ALRIGHT BUT SOME OF THE
ACTUAL PRODUCTION AND THAT
RESEARCH PORTION OF THE
PRODUCTION. I CAN'T BELIEVE
THAT ANYBODY WOULD WANT TO STOP
RIGHT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR
CLOTHES AND SO. I FEEL A LITTLE
BIT BETTER ON THAT- SINCE. WITH
THAT CLARIFICATION AND I HOPE
THAT EVERYBODY SEES THAT THAT'S
THAT WE DON'T IMPEDE THAT. THE
ALTERNATE FUEL PRODUCTION WHICH
IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR US TO
MEET. THESE GOALS WHATEVER IT
MAY BE. AND THE RESEARCH HAS
ASSOCIATED WITH THAT. THANK YOU
SENATOR ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. IS

I THINK THAT LIFE'S. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH MADAM CHAIR AND
SENATORS. THE THIS COMMITTEE IS
WELL AWARE OF THE MYRIAD OF
WAYS IN WHICH THE DIGITAL
DIVIDE HAS MANIFESTED ITSELF
THROUGHOUT OUR STATE THIS PAST
YEAR. WHETHER IT'S EDUCATION
THE DIGITAL MARKETPLACE HEALTH
CARE OR ACCESS TO GOVERNMENT
SERVICES THE GATEWAY TO
FUNDAMENTAL. FUNDAMENTAL
RESOURCES IS INCREASINGLY
ONLINE. SINCE TAKING OFFICE
COMMONSENSE EXPANSION OF
BROADBAND ACCESS BEEN HAS BEEN
A PRIORITY OF MINE. I'M EXCITED
TO BRING THAT WORKING KNOWLEDGE
TO THE TABLE AS WE HAVE
COLLABORATED BY CAMERA LAKE
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION TO
CLOSE THE DIGITAL DIVIDE. THE
CONCEPT THE DIG ONCE IS NOT A
NEW POLICY AREA FOR ME I'M
BRINGING THIS PROPOSAL BEFORE
YOU AGAIN BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY
SOME OF OUR STATE AGENCIES DO
NOT RECOGNIZE THE URGENCY WITH
WHICH WE MUST ROLL OUT.
CRITICAL BROADBAND
INFRASTRUCTURE. PUT SIMPLY AS
WE UPGRADE OUR STATE ROADWAYS
WE NEED TO DETERMINE HOW NOT IF
BROADBAND IS A PART OF THE
IMMINENT INFRASTRUCTURE
IMPROVEMENTS. I CAN'T THINK OF
A BETTER TIME TO LAY CON DO IT
THEN WE HAVE THE GROUND ALREADY
OPEN. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
SPENDING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON
MIDDLE MILE DEPLOYMENT WHICH IS
EXCITING. BUT WE DON'T HAVE BUT
WE DON'T WE HAVE A FIDUCIARY
RESPONSIBILITY TO MAXIMIZE COST
SAVINGS OPPORTUNITIES. IS IT
TOO MUCH TO ASK THAT WE GET
BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE
DEPLOYMENT IN SYNC WITH PLANNED
ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADES.
I'M ASKING FOR SIMPLE PLANNING
WHERE STATE AGENCIES WHICH CAN
REDUCE THE COST OF BROADBAND
DEPLOYMENT BY 90% ACCORDING TO
THE FEDERAL HIGHWAY
ADMINISTRATION. ON THE LINE TO
TESTIFY IN SUPPORT IS ERICA

ARE CRITICAL FOR EDUCATION BUT
ALSO FOR HEALTHCARE
TELEMEDICINE. PUBLIC SAFETY AND
EMERGENCY RESPONSE WORLD
COMMUNITIES IN LOW INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS WITHOUT ACCESS TO
HIGH QUALITY BROADBAND. ARE
CURRENTLY AT A MEDIA
DISADVANTAGED. SCHOOLS CONTINUE
WITH VIRTUAL EDUCATION PROGRAM
HOMEWORK AND SCHOOL RESEARCH
PROJECT THAT ARE BASED ON THE
DIGITAL PLATFORM. THOSE IN
RURAL COMMUNITIES IN LOW INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS NEED TO BE CONNECTED
IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT
STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO ALL
APPROPRIATE EDUCATION PROGRAM.
EIGHTY FORTY ONE WOULD ENSURE
THAT AREAS WITH LITTLE ACCESS
TO NECESSARY BROADBAND ARE
PRIORITIZED AND ACCURATE AND UP
TO DATE MAPPING OF SERVICES. IN
AREAS IN THE STATE WILL ALLOW
FOCUS WE PLACE ON THOSE AREAS
WHERE SERVICES ARE NEEDED MOST.
INCLUDING CONDUIT IN HIGHWAY
CONSTRUCTION WILL FURTHER THE
EXPANSION OF BOTH MIDDLE MILE
AND LAST MILE PROJECT.
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU CONSIDER
THE HIGH LEVEL OF HIGHWAY
CONSTRUCTION CURRENTLY BEING
UNDERTAKEN THROUGHOUT THE
STATE. HE AT THE AIRPORT
FINDING AND STREAMLINING
PROCESSES TO HELP ACCELERATE
BROADBAND DEPLOYMENT. IT'S
