CITY COUNCIL MINUTES AUGUST 24, 1993
Director Thornhill stated that the AQMD's Rideshare Plan is for employers of 100 or
more. By lowering the requirement to employers of 50 - 99 employees, it could have
a detrimental effect on the small business person in terms of preparing a plan.
Councilmember Birdsall stated she feels 50 - 99 employees represents a small business
and the small businesses in the City cannot handle any more financial burdens.
Councilmember Parks questioned why "shuttles" was not included as a preferred
method.
Director Thornhill agreed that shuttles should be included as a preferred method for
Temecula.
Mayor Pro Tem Roberts stated that he feels "Enhanced Enforcement For Polluting
Vehicles" should be included. He advised that the AQMD funded a program using the
California Highway Patrol to work specific areas identifying polluting vehicles but that
program has been discontinued.
It was moved by Councilmember Parks, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Roberts to refer
this item back to staff for additional review on recommendations on how the City will
meet its requirements and determine which of the methods will be considered a priority
based on the value of its impact. This is to be placed on the agenda in sixty (60) days.
