It is important to first mention how the City of Grand Terrace fits into the air quality arena. At the Federal level, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is charged with interstate transportation regulation of on -road motor vehicle standards; trains, airplanes, and ships; non -road engines; and off -shore oil development. At the State level, the Air Resources Board (ARB) also oversees on -road vehicle emissions standards, fuel specifications, some off -road sources and consumer product standards within the State. Air Quality Districts are created by the State and are responsible for stationary sources and some mobile and indirect sources. In addition, the Districts are responsible for the development, adoption and enforcement of the Air Quality Management Plans (AQMP) which includes Transportation Control Measures (TCMs). This plan sets forth a comprehensive program that will lead Air Quality Management District Basins into compliance with all Federal and State air quality standards. - Our. air district is the Southern California Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). At the local level, on January 13, 1994, Grand Terrace, through the leadership of SANBAG, adopted Ordinance Number 147 in an attempt to make a good faith effort in implementing selected TCMs from the 1991 Air Quality Management Plan in order to comply with the Congestion Management Plan regulations and help to avoid AQMD's backstop air quality measures on our business. lam 22795 Barton Road - Grand Terrace, California 92313-5295 - (909) 824-6621 Impacts on Grand Terrace: Therefore, yes, Federal Regulations will indirectly affect us as they are incorporated into the SCAQMD plan. In practice, however, due to the characteristics of our City, real, negative impacts will likely not reach us. On the other hand, due to transportation regulations such as State Congestion Management Plan Rules (partially copied and adopted at the Federal level through the Intermodal $4V Surface Transportation Enhancement Act - ISTEA), cities like Grand Terrace are likely to be directly affected by transportation related air quality regulations. The Regional Transportation Improvement Plan, RTIP, put together by the local association of governments with input from cities (in our case, by SANBAG) has to meet air quality conformity findings. For example, in case I-215 is ever improved, it would likely be with HOV lanes (as an incentive for ride -sharers) and not with additional general purpose lanes (which make it easier for continued single -occupancy vehicle use), in order to change travel behavior towards reduced vehicle emissions. Other examples are transit projects and any other projects which consist of alternative modes of transportation to the car will be more likely to be approved. For your information, SCAG is responsible to review the RTIPs from all subregions or counties within the Southern California Region and forward them to the State. The State in turn forwards the plan to the Federal government. If the State Transportation Plan, SUP, does not meet conformity findings, federal funding is halted. Conclusion: While Grand Terrace does not fit into the interstate "polluter" profile to be directly affected by Federal Regulations, it will likely continue to be subject to local (SCAQMD and SANBAG) air quality/transportation regulations. In fact, even if the F1P regulations are "watered down", the SCAQMD's Air Quality Plan is not likely to tighten but is likely to keep much of current regulations in place, as we are in the worst air quality basin of the nation. Furthermore, most local jurisdictions, including Grand Terrace, have already adopted Air Quality Ordinances which meet stricter standards than the Federal ones. These ordinances are already working through the system. For further information of the City Council, a member of SANBAG staff, Ty Schuilling, was invited to make a short presentation at the meeting. Hopefully, he will be able to attend. Also, attached for your information are one newspaper article and excerpts from the Kiplinger Newsletter. 3 THE KIPLINGER WASHINGTON LETTER Circulated uwekly to business clients since 1923—Vol. 7?

She has recently married, and plans to relocate out of the area. The County is in the process of recruiting for a new Community Services Officer. Due to the current financial challenges being presented to cities and the general fund deficit of 6W approximately $200, 000 for the current fiscal year, staff has been asked to bring this position before the City Council for discussion. Attached is a summary of the sample duties of the Community Services Officer. As indicated in the summary, this position requires a large variety of duties performed, and affects many segments of the community.
