The Division of Highways, Department of Public Works, State of California, has

route studies for the Santa Monica Bay Area link, The hearing on alternative
routes has been delayed pending, in part, the disposition of AB 2050,

approved alternative to (a) either a north- south freeway through the residential

areas in the same vicinity. The principal features of the enabling act are as

Customarily, I would not solicit your support for a locally sponsored bill.
However, AB 2050 represents a philosophy of government which is of
importance to every local public agency in California. It proposes and is
consistent with the principles of:
Cooperative local solutions for local problems
Local responsibility for financing as well as planning
Reliance upon private capital as opposed to public funds
I would, therefore, solicit your support and that of your City Council by the
adoption of the enclosed resolution at the earliest possible date with a certified
copy directed to my attention. I and the members of the Santa Monica City
Council, as well as the City Manager, are prepared to make personal pre-
sentations of this project to your City Council if you believe this would be
desirable prior to the adoption of the resolution.
Cordially yours,
REX H. MINTER
