Toll Roads Action Letter Supports Senate Bills 760 761

 

 

California Senate Bills 760 761 limit new extensions to the TCA Toll Roads, please take ACTION to send a letter, two model letters are found in the link to the San Clemente website below. Letter deadline is April 2 2021.



 

 

Support letter from NOT MY TOLL ROAD:

I support SB 760 which aims to limit the Hwy 241 toll road extension at Oso Parkway rather than plow through South Orange County.   The Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA) responsible for these toll roads has proven to be self-serving by refinancing the debt service to 2053 rather than mature them last Millennia. Several independent analyses of the TCA debt service have determined the 2053 maturity is also unrealistic, in fact the bonds must be refinanced indefinitely meaning TCA organization will never sunset.  I urge you to pass this important legislation to update and correct the TCA’s legislative route and return trust back in transportation.

Some Details:
 
SB 760 – makes the terminus of the 241 toll road at Oso Parkway (currently legislation has it ending South of San Clemente) this needs to be changed to end at Oso – thank you Senator Pat Bates for bringing both of these incredible bills.

 SB 761 – protects our open spaces and conservation areas. 
 
Use the California State Senate Portal to submit the Support letters on the page link above – it is so easy. Just select the Senate Bill for the Bill type and then the number SB 760 and type your support comments.   Repeat for the next bill. 

Remember DEADLINE to receive letters is April 2, 2021. 
Thank You for helping us defeat these Toll Road extensions.
