In its three years (through December 1996) of activ- itv the Commission underwrote technical and economic studies that probed technology, rout - mg, patronage potential, capital and operating costs, environmental impacts, economic bene- fits and institutional arrangements for a possi- ble high speed rail network in the state The studies gave preliminary answers to the basic questions about the new system • What kinds of trams might fit the state's needs? is Where should the trains run? • Who would nde and how far? • How much would it cost to build and operate? • What would it do for and to the environment? SOURCE High Speed Ground Transportation Association • What would it do for lobs and economic activity? • Who would take charge of building, financing, and operating the system? On the basis of the studies, the Commission suc- cessively narrowed the field of choices until the conceptual outlines of a feasible span were identified The Commission presented its report and recommendations for future action to the Governor and the Legislature in December 19% It then disbanded according to its sunset provi- sions A State Authority is now being formed to prepare the next steps for implementing a high speed intercity ground transportation system Its main tasks will be gaining approval through the legislature and a possible ballot measure by the year 2000 to provide financing, management and technical guidance for the system WHAT THE COMMISSION REPORTED AND RECOMMENDED The Commission came to the overall conclu- sion that a high speed ground transportation system is techmcallv and economically feasible for California. It recommended that the con- cept should be pursued further The system must connect San Francisco and San Jose in the Bay Area to downtown Los Angeles in Southern California. However, Sacramento and San Diego represent the most logical terminal points of the system The resulting 670-mile system would generate dra- matically higher patronage by creating many more city connections in the state This would significantly improve the financial returns of the entire system STATUS REPORT VOLUME 1 2 Spnng 1997 1� RWD EMPIRE HIGH SPEED RUL AD HOC SUBCOMWME WHAT HIGH SPEED RAIL CAN MEAN FOR THE INLAND EMPIRE In the Inland Empire, the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) and the San Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG) have followed these developments, arguing strongly for a routing of the eventual system through the region Every city in Riverside County and several n San Bernardino have officially endorsed this position, which was adopted by the state commis- sion in its final report The Inland Empire route will provide a high speed route to complement the rail route along the south- em coast on which Amtrak, Metrolink and Coaster trams already operate Any system serving the planned needs of the Inland Empire must fit into the transportation and development blueprints of the region The tech- nical needs of the high speed system must be met within corridors that make sense for other transportation systems already in place and planned This means good connections with airports, other public transit systems and park-and-nde facilities, as well as improvements in a41111111 SOURCE German Ministry of Transport local traffic and freight movements It also means taking advantage of development opportunities for economic improvement in the Inland Empireis business locations RCTC and SANBAG intend to move ahead quickly to identify and promote the regional advantages of high speed rail They have set up a joint ad hoc task force to explore the technical aspects and eco- nomic opportunities that high speed rail offers to the region The task force will strive to identify the mobility and economic benefits for the Inland Empire, examine candidate routes through the region and integrate the high speed system into the existing transit, highway and air transport system The task force will also assist in developing public support in the region and cooperate with the state authority in advancing the statewide plan to connect the Inland Empire to the larger system in the most effective manner SANBAG and RCTC will continue to encourage and mobilize the Inland Empire's leaders to embrace this significant opportunity ffVff REPORT DOLL VE 1 4 ciTr STAFF REPORT Community and Economic Development Department CRA ITEM () COUNCIL ITEM (X) MEETING DATE: October 8,1998 FUNDING REQUIRED NO FUNDING REQUIRED X_ SUBJECT: Administrative Site and Architectural Review for Last 28 Lots of Tract No. 13050, Owned by T J.
