On March 25, 2010 The Ventura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) and the Ventura Council of Governments (VCOG) held a joint meeting al California Lutheran University with the Sothern California Association of Governments (SCAG) to discuss SB 375. As part of that discussion, SCAG polled elected officials and other civic leaders on their attitudes on a variety of development and transportation issues.

The presentation in its entirety and just the question and results are available below.

The Ventura County Transportation Commission conducted this study to determine how to best allocate funds for projects that would enhance transit services for county residents. Initially seen as providing a methodology for prioritizing state funds that were anticipated to be available from Prop 1B, the study was modified slightly over time. Potential projects for funding under Prop 1B were incorporated into applications for federal funds available through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act early in 2009. Accordingly, the prioritization process was modified to ensure its applicability to other funding sources.
