State of California voters passed legislation (i.e. 1990 Proposition 111) that increased funding for California’s transportation system and required urbanized counties, like San Joaquin County, to prepare, adopt, and biennially update a Congestion Management Program. The later 2006 Measure K Renewal ordinance included a requirement to support and development a RCMP. The implementation of Senate Bill (SB) 743 encouraged SJCOG to invoke a clause (i.e. California Legislation Government Code 65088.3) that no longer deems legislation from Proposition 111 not applicable in 2020.
