A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
DOWNEY OPPOSING ASSEMBLY BILL NO. 461
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill No. 461, as introduced in the State of
California Legislature, would allocate County Gas Tax Funds propor-
tionately to any city in the County over two million population; and

State of California; and
WHEREAS, this Bill is in contradiction to the principle of home

in Los Angeles County and the development of the Master Plan of Highways
throughout the many cities of the County;
