Bill overview
This bill establishes the Sacramento Transportation Authority (STA) to allow the County of Sacramento to levy a local transportation tax, subject to voter approval, to fund transportation projects. The STA can use these revenues for infrastructure improvements, including construction and modernization, specifically targeting infill and transit-oriented development projects aligned with state greenhouse gas reduction goals. The bill also authorizes the STA to issue bonds to finance high-occupancy toll lanes and other toll facilities, subject to agreements with the Capital Area Regional Tolling Authority (CARTA) and voter approval.
