31 REVISED RESOLUTION NO A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKEWOOD DECLARING OPPOSITION TO LOS ANGELES COUNTY METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY MEASURE M WHEREAS, On November 8, 2016, voters will be asked to consider Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Measure M; and WHEREAS, Measure M will double the transportation sales tax rate approved by voters in 2008 and make the tax permanent; and WHEREAS, Measure M requires a two-thirds approval vote to pass; and WHEREAS, a survey commissioned by the Gateway Cities Council of Government survey found that the public is concerned about the fact that Measure M is a permanent tax with no end date; and WHEREAS, the Gateway Cities and South Bay Councils of Governments, representing more than 40 cities collectively, have opposed Measure M because transportation projects to blue collar communities will be postponed while projects to far more affluent communities will be first in line to receive money, projects that would address traffic issues in the Southeast and South Bay regions will not be completed for decades, and because of overall concerns about the unfair allocation of funds; and WHEREAS, under Measure M, over $7,500,000 is projected to be collected annually from Lakewood taxpayers, but based on the approved allocation plan Lakewood will receive only $1,159,130 per year from that tax collected, to use for projects in Lakewood such as maintenance of streets and related infrastructure. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKEWOOD DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The City Council hereby declares its opposition to Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Measure M. SECTION 2. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase in this Resolution, or any part hereof, is held invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining sections or portions of this Resolution. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase in this Resolution irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases may be declared invalid or unconstitutional. 2.1
