(714l 824-Z660 March 1, 1982 Honorable James Sharp Mayor of Tustin City Hall ~ain at Centennial Tustin, CA 92680 Dear ~ayor Sharp & Members of the Council: The State of California Air Resources Board (CARE) is expanding at the expense of local government. We need your vigorous protest to correct this shocking situation. The enclosed budget shows that the CARB has arbitrarily decided to absorb the funds trad±tionally earmarked by the legislature for local and regional air quality districts. CARE will use this money to expand its staff and its functions at a time when all other government agencies are cutting back. The enclosed chart demonstrates the extent to which CARB has expande~ its staffing in the last eight years. Faced with the CARB decision, the District will be forced to raise the fees it receives from industry to carry out its statutory responsibility. These'fees are, of course, passed on to local consumers who will be paying more money to expand a state agency which has already grown far beyond its statutory requirements. Knowing of your Council's desire in maintaining home rule and your concern for the economic interest of your constituents, I urge you to adopt a resolution requesting state legislators to disapprove the absorption of local assistance funds in the CARB's budget. I have enclosed a draft resolution which may be helpful. Sincerely, ~- / /-"~ ~ .~ '~ ~: ThOmas F.
