WASHINGTON In a reversal of
the usual worries about political influence on electoral map-making, the
Supreme Court is being asked to let raw
politics play an even bigger role in the
drawing of congressional district
boundaries.
The court hears argument Monday in
an appeal by Republican lawmakers in
Arizona against the states voterapproved independent redistricting
commission for creating the districts
of U.S. House members. A decision
striking down the commission probably would doom a similar system in
neighboring California, and could
affect districting commissions in 11
other states.
The court previously has closed the
door to lawsuits challenging excessive
partisanship in redistricting, or gerry-

diplomatic
record with Iran entitles the U.S.
to the benefit of the doubt as
negotiators work toward a longterm nuclear deal. On a mission to
warn of the dangers of a nucleararmed Iran, the prime minister
arrived in Washington for the
speech the White House didnt
want him to give.
Kerry said in an interview broadcast before he arrived in
Switzerland for talks with Irans
foreign minister that Netanyahu
was welcome to speak in the U.S.
and that the administration did not
want the event turned into some
great political football.
SCHOOLS
Continued from page 1
$2.1 million deficit, as well as a 1 percent
pay reduction for all district staff. And
though the cuts to personnel cannot be
approved without consent through collective bargaining, the boards action sends a
message to district teachers, who are asking
for their first raise in nearly a decade.
A main source of revenue that the district
had relied upon was money from the sale of
Carl Sandburg Elementary School, which
earned $30.5 million in 2005. Decreases in
enrollment forced the school to close in
1978, and some of those same concerns
still plague the district today.
Superintendent David Hutt said historically for every one student entering the district, nearly 2.5 are leaving via interdistrict
transfers, which can have a profound impact
on the bottom line through money allocated to the district from the state for average
daily attendance.
From the 2009-2010 school year to last
year, the district grew by 165 students, from
2,620 to 2,785 students. In that same time,
the similarly sized Millbrae School District
grew by 269 students, from 2,176 to 2,445.
Reputation woes
Raul Gomez, a parent of a student of El
Crystal, said he wondered whether uncertainty surrounding the budget may harm the
districts reputation, and discourage parents
from wanting to enroll their kids in San
Bruno schools.
People have heard whats going on with
the district, and that might keep them
away, he said.
The future of El Crystal, which advertises
itself to students outside the district
through offering creative programming,
may hang in the balance of the districts
ability to attract and retain students.
Johnson said along with floating the
issue of school closure, consolidation with
another smaller elementary school has been
discussed as well.
Closing the doors on El Crystal would
devastate some members of the school community, who have traditionally appreciated
the district offering smaller, neighborhood
schools.
Wendy Al-Mukdad, parent of a student at
El Crystal, said she loves sending her child
to a school that offers a tight-knit atmosphere.
The community here is a huge asset, she
said. It really benefits my son to be here.
Hes very happy.
Elementary schools in the district range
between roughly 250 and 350 students but
Hutt said the state model for elementary
school is typically about twice that
amount, and should the community wish to
keep smaller neighborhood schools, the
district may be forced to test the financial
tions and U.S. and Western economic penalties eased in the final
years of a deal.
We are going to test whether or
not diplomacy can prevent this
weapon from being created, so you
dont have to turn to additional
measures including the possibility of a military confrontation,
Kerry told ABCs This Week.
Our hope is that diplomacy can
work. And I believe, given our
success of the interim agreement,
we deserve the benefit of the doubt
to find out whether or not we can
get a similarly good agreement
with respect to the future.
Netanyahu will press his opposition to a diplomatic accommodation of Irans program in his
speech Tuesday to Congress. We
are not here to offend President
Obama whom we respect very
much, said a Netanyahu adviser,
who was not authorized to be identified.
The prime minister is here to
commitment of residents.
He suggested that the community might
need to support a parcel tax, which would
offer a dedicated source of money for the district to climb out of its budget hole, and
could provide sustainable revenue for future
years. Voters shot down a $199 parcel tax
on the fall 2012 election ballot.
But there could be a natural resolution to
the districts budget problems on the horizon as well, said Hutt.
Currently, San Bruno Park is defined as a
basic aid district, but Hutt said as the budget
development process continues, the district
may switch classification to be considered a
revenue limit district, which would change
its revenue model from being driven by
property taxes to accepting funds from the
state.
Hutt said the district expects to report
more about its most property valuation
data, which would affect the funding model,
at the Board of Trustees meeting Wednesday,
March 11.
Budget options
But considering the instability of funding
models, and the structural nature of the district deficit, Trustee Henry Sanchez said
officials may still need to keep all budget
options on the table.
One or two schools need to be closed,
said Sanchez. If you have all these budgetary issues, how can you sustain this for the
long term?
He said he hoped that the discussion about
district finances could galvanize the school
district and local residents.
Were going to have to make decisions
that arent going to be popular. But we can
come out of this and be a better community, he said.
Parents and students have rallied before
board meetings where cuts were being discussed to express support for teachers and
staff.
Engagement in the budget process has
been beneficial for all involved in the district, said Sanchez, who hopes to continue
the dialogue with the community over the
coming months.
Community involvement
Gary Pettinari, president of the districts
classified union, said communication
between officials and broader school community could also help resolve some of the
prevailing financial woes.
In the process of attempting to balance
the budget for the coming year, Pettinari
has suggested classified staff take control
of services that are currently outsourced,
such as running special education transportation, which could save the district
nearly $300,000.
Some residents and members of the
school community have also taken to looking for additional revenue sources, such as
grant writing or increased contributions to
the community support fund for schools.

Still in drought
Editor,
After reading the guest perspective
from Cameron Johnson and the letter
from Shirley Eigenbrot in the Feb. 20
and Feb. 27 editions of the Daily
Journal, respectively, regarding the
delivery of the San Francisco
Examiner to their driveway, I am
appalled.
Many of us enjoy this paper. Not
everyone feels the way the above
writers do.
For those who cannot afford a daily
newspaper like the San Francisco
Examiner, it gives us insights into
what is happening in the city and
enables us to use the information for
our benet. There have been many
good articles on the history of San
Francisco. As an example, the
Examiner featured an article on the
celebration of the 100th anniversary
of the 1915 Panama-Pacic
International Exposition in San
Francisco recently.
Also, the Sunday edition is well
liked for all the store advertisements

Editor,
I am acquainted with sheriffs
Deputy Juan Lopez, and District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe. When Juan
ran as a write-in candidate for sheriff,
I voted for him. I later met him and
his ancee at a San Mateo County
Libertarian Party meeting.Mark De
Paula, John McDowell and I, running
as a team for the Sequoia Healthcare
District Board of Directors, sought
and received the party endorsement.
Juan helped Mark place campaign
signs for the team. I trust Juan
Lopez.
My experience with Wagstaffe was
in relation to a complaint I led
regarding three sitting Sequoia
Healthcare District directors Kane,
Grifn and Faro, who had voted themselves an increase in health insurance
benets. After exchanging communications with Mark Hudak, counsel for
the district, the DAs ofce declined to
take action to seek return of benets
erroneously received by the trio.
Hudak is well known in the San
Mateo County legal community. Was
this a conict of interest? Shouldnt
the DA have referred this to the attorney general or the civil grand jury?

purpose in prosecuting Deputy

Mammograms
and measles
reast cancer is the most common diagnosed cancer in California, regardless of race/ethnicity, and
accounts for 32 percent of all cancers in women.
It is the second leading cause of cancer deaths (lung cancer
is rst). For women, it is an especially personal disease
and one that many women most fear. So it is especially
frustrating when there are mixed signals about when and
how often to have a mammogram.
The good news is that screening techniques have signicantly improved. According to Harriett Borofsky, M.D.,
medical director of the Mills-Peninsulas Womens Center,
3DMammography/Digital
Breast Tomonsythesis
(DBT) is the most impactful technology that I will
see and utilize in my medical career. Minimally
invasive breast biopsies,
breast ultrasound and breast
MRI have had an enormous
impact on our ability to
detect breast cancer. It is
just that DBT is a much
better mammogram for the
thousands of women who
are screened each year. For
us, that is about 25,000.
Mills-Peninsula has
replaced all ve of its mammography units with DBTs.
According to Dr. Borofsky, this technology improves
upon the major limitation of mammography: overlapping
tissue. In addition to the standard views, the computer
reformats the data and displays it to the doctor in 1 mm
thin sections through the breast, like pages in a book.
Since installing our new units, from mid-January to midApril last year, our call-back rate (number of women we
call back for additional views) is down 30 percent and our
breast cancer detection rate has signicantly increased.
***
Nationally, incidence of breast cancer increased about 8
percent from 1988-2001 due to screening. Incidence
slightly decreased from 2001-2004 after the Womens
Health Initiative reported an association between hormonal therapy and breast cancer and many post-menopausal
women discontinued their hormone use. The incidence of
breast cancer has been steady since 2009 but deaths due to
breast cancer continue to decline by about 2.2 percent per
year.
In San Mateo County, the incidence of breast cancer
(2004-2008) was 133/100,000, slightly higher compared
to breast cancer among all California women of
122/100,000. Non-Hispanic white women have highest
incidence. African-American women have highest death
rate.
The majority of breast cancer is diagnosed at Stages 0
and 1 due to mammographic screening. Thats a good
thing because overall survival is directly related to stage
at diagnosis. The percentage of women who have had
mammograms within the past two years in California in
2010 was 78 percent. Unfortunately, fewer women are
having regular mammograms due to confusing and conicting recommendations.
Heres the current advice from the American Cancer
Society and other experts: annual mammographic screening for women 40 and older, unless there is a family history of premenopausal breast cancer. Then screening may be
started at an earlier age
***
Its difcult to believe that we have a new measles threat
in this country because some people refuse to vaccinate
their children and because some politicians (Chris
Christie, Rand Paul) have said stupid things in the past on
which they are now backtracking. These individuals have
never had the measles as adults or have children who
caught the virus.
As a veteran of this horrible disease, let me say these
people are crazy. My children and I never had the measles
vaccine. It was yet to be available.The baby caught the
virus rst and was very sick. My oldest child was recovering at home from a tonsillectomy when I got sick. You
have heard the expression I coughed all night. Well, I
literally coughed all night and draining the contents of a
bottle of cough medicine didnt help. I thought I was
going to die. The next morning I couldnt get out of bed
and I had two sick children to mother. I called our pediatrician who made a house call (Yes, doctors once made house
calls). He gave me and older son a shot of gamma globulin
which was supposed to minimize the disease. I guess it
did, because we survived. But anyone who doesnt get this
vaccine for themselves and their children is a danger to
society and especially to infants and those, who for
health reasons, cannot.

dysfunction isnt limited to the
struggle to keep a Cabinet department running without interruption.
Lawmakers couldnt finish their
work last year and its showing
now. The leftover business could
prove even more divisive than the
dispute over rolling back
President Barack Obamas immigration policies on a bill providing money for the Department of
Homeland Security.
Stretches of brinkmanship are
certain to consume much of the
legislative calendar in 2015. One
critical issue is whether to
increase the nations borrowing
authority. That debate could have
major repercussions for the recovering economy.
The to-do list includes forestalling a 21 percent cut in
Medicare payments to physicians,
preventing a cutoff of highway
and transit dollars in the middle of
peak construction season this
summer and renewing critical
parts of the Patriot Act.
Theres also a debate among

Doctors who participate in
Medicare face a 21 percent cut in

Samsung,

Apples iPhone 6 and 6 Plus,

than previous versions and their
size was heavily marketed, in part
to appeal to customers who liked

of swiping down on the home button, you simply touch it, much the

Both the S6 and the S6 Edge are
slightly lighter, thinner and narrower than the S5, though they are
a tad taller.
Samsungs new phones will
incorporate technology from
LoopPay, a startup that Samsung
is buying. LoopPays technology
reproduces the signals from a credit cards magnetic swipe, so it can
work with existing retail equipment. Most rivals, including
Apple Pay, require newer equipment.
The Samsung phones will debut
overseas on April 10, at prices to

wasnt given. Samsung is also
making an S6 version of its Gear
VR virtual-reality headset, which
currently works only with the

Skyline falls to Mission
Four Skyline errors opened the door for
two big rallies as Mission scored a 12-6
comeback win Saturday in San Jose.
The Trojans took a 5-2 lead into the sixth
inning, but Mission scored three runs in the
bottom of the frame to tie. Then the Saints
sent 11 batters to the plate in the seventh to
break the game open with a seven-run rally.
Former Burlingame outfielder Jian Lee
opened the seventh with a walk. Lee later
scored the go-ahead run on an RBI groundout by designated hitter Colton Fletcher.
The Trojans outhit Mission 10-9 and two
Burlingame alums accounted for half the
Skyline hits. Phil Caulfield went 3 for 5 out
of the leadoff spot while Michael Franco
was 2 for 4. Arturo Ahedo had a big day at
the plate for Mission, going 4 for 5 with a
pair of doubles and an RBI.
Mission reliever Cole Fredericks earned
the win. RJ Hanson took the loss.

death comes on
the heels of the loss of Chicago
Cubs great Ernie Banks, who

God Bless you, my friends.
Minoso played 12 of his 17 seasons in Chicago, hitting . 304

the White Sox. The White Sox
retired his No. 9 in 1983 and there

the
Warriors played
their fifth game
on a six-game
road trip, and
the middle of a
Stephen Curry string of three
games in four
nights. It seemed like it was sluggish there in the first quarter. We
had to be mentally tough to make it
an interesting game and close out
the half.
Its the first time since the
Warriors moved west from
Philadelphia in 1962 that they
have won four straight games
against the Celtics.
Boston led by 13 at the end of the
first quarter despite 14 points from
Curry. Boston stretched it to 56-30
on back-to-back 3-pointers by
Crowder and Jonas Jerebko midway
through the second.
But the Warriors had cut the
deficit to 16 points by halftime and
scored nine straight points early in
the third quarter seven of them
by Curry to bring it into single
digits.
It was 86-75 after three before
Golden State scored the first six
points of the fourth on a 3-pointer
by Green and Shaun Livingstons
three-point play.
Trailing 92-87, the Warriors went
on a 9-2 run, tying it 94-all on
Iguodalas dunk and taking the lead
on Greens tip-in.
Tip-ins: The Warriors gave up 17
fast-break points in the first half
before scoring their first. ...
Golden State plays three games in

Skyline falls in
playoff opener
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Skyline mens basketball fell in its playoff opener Saturday with a 77-61 loss at
College of Marin.
With the season-ending loss, Skyline finishes the season with a 17-10 record, falling
just short of its 2008-09 win total. The
Trojans finished that season with an 18-14
record. It was the last time they ended above
the .500 mark until this season and the last
time they qualified for the Northern
California Regional tournament.
No. 14-seed Skyline made a run at No. 3
Marin in the first half. The Trojans led for
most of it and saw their held their biggest
advantage at the midway mark of the half
20-12 when sophomore Elijah White hit a
pair of free throws.
But Marin went on a 15-4 run, culminating in a George Johnson 3-pointer to take
its first lead of the game 27-24 with 4:11
remaining in the half.
Skylines Tavita Jimenez who led all
scorers with 21 points hit a jumper just
before halftime to close lead to 33-32.
The lead seesawed through the opening
minutes of the second half but Pierre Carter
and Miller Blake hit back-to-back layups to
give Marin the lead for good. Marin went on
a 13-4 run from there to open up an insurmountable margin.
Of the six teams from the Coast
Conference North to qualify for the postseason, only Caada, Foothill and City
College of San Francisco remain. Chabot
and Las Positas were also eliminated last
week. No. 10 Caada travels to No. 2 San
Jose City Wednesday at 7 p.m.

The crisis was averted, however, when the
Pirates slammed the kick into the Knights defensive wall stationed in the middle of the box.
We worked on our wall during practice
this week, FitzGerald said.
The start of the second half featured
Harbor coming out with renewed determination and put immediate pressure on the
Knights. After just one shot in the first half,
the Pirates had two shots and corner kick in
the opening three minutes of the second.
Early in the second half, we didnt play
very well, FitzGerald said.
The Knights weathered the storm and
methodically regained control of the game.
The Knights fired off eight shots in the second half before icing the game on their
ninth in the 69th minute. Similar to the
first, Swig received a pass about 25 yards
from goal before playing a perfect pass to
the right flank and Emily Demmon. She carried the ball nearly to the end line before
wrapping her right foot around it and crossing it to the front of the Harbor goal.
The ball drifted inside the far left post and
into the net for an improbable strike and a
2-0 Menlo lead.
The win keeps the Knight in the running

with the press. The hyper-aggressive tactic
came at a slight cost, however, as Erisman
drew her third foul with 6:50 remaining in
the first half.
We hadnt played in 10 days so we were a
little bit off kilter, John Paye said. It kind
of shook us a little bit when they were hitting their 3s and we were missing. [Erisman]
got into foul trouble and we told the girls,
youve got to go to the basket instead of
relying on outside 3s.
Once they did, the aggression began yielding results. Castilleja was working with a
more severe handicap than mere foul trouble

I thought we were going to get that second one, Siracusa said, adding he threw

We were either going to tie it or lose 31, Siracusa said.
If the Panthers had settled into the game a
little more quickly, they might have made it
to overtime. As Burlingame was still getting
a feel for the game in the opening minutes,
Santa Cruz knew exactly what it wanted to
do. Using a number of crisp, one-touch passes and a disciplined formation, the Cardinals
put the pressure on the Panthers from the
opening whistle.
The Cardinals had a number of shots and
dangerous crosses in the opening minutes.
In the ninth minute, Santa Cruz struck.
Earning a free kick along the left flank,

TOM JUNG/DAILY JOURNAL
BUDGET
Continued from page 1
Providing a long-term forecast is intended to empower the City Council as it must
consider corrective actions to prevent projections that the city could be spending
$1.5 million more than it earns by 2022
a stark decrease from the $11.9 million general fund balance it started 2014-2015 with,
according to the Finance Department.
As the council oated Measure L as a temporary funding mechanism during the economic downturn, Mayor Maureen Freschet
said city ofcials would continue to seek
other methods to maintain a balanced budget while attending to unfunded infrastructure
projects.
City Council and staff have been
engaged in exhaustive long-term planning
to address these challenges and are identifying all our sourcing opportunities including
aggressively pursuing all available state
and federal assistance to complete these
projects, Freschet wrote in an email.
Still early in the budget cycle, the city is
expected to have an estimated $101 million
in revenue and approximately $99.4 million in expenses for fiscal year 2015-2016,
Culver said. While there is an anticipated
$4.11 million increase in revenue, the city
will likely set much aside for reserves as
well as contribute toward the golf course
and save some for affordable housing,
Culver said.
In addition to annual income and expenditures, the citys general fund will likely
start with a $12.9 million balance and
$22.7 million in emergency reserves next
year, Culver said. Overall, with healthy
reserves and tax revenue anticipated to
remain strong, absent another recession,
the city has a stable financial footing,
Culver said.
Were positioned very well in that we
have fully funded reserves, 25 percent of our
budget, plus it looks like well end this year
with a $12.9 million general fund balance
in addition to those reserves. Its just that,
as the forecast shows, well slowly draw
that fund balance over time because the revenues, although growing health, wont
keep up with those huge increases in costs
from the pension rates. Revenue is going
healthy, except for the loss of Measure L,
Culver said.
The voter-approved Measure L began in
2009 and is set to peak in 2016-17 by
bringing in $5.2 million before expiring
soon after.
On top of the loss of that revenue source,
the citys contribution toward pensions
will increase.

tion was poured in November 1947, but the
first floor had to wait for adequate financing
before it was completed. The city provided
the money in February 1950, but the work
became embroiled in controversy and it was
not completed until 1955. The work on the
second floor then had to be held up due to
lack of funds. With things straightened out,
the second floor was begun in June 1957.
The second roof was to be done by the lowest bid of $169,000, submitted by Peterson
LOCAL
vants make up about 75 percent of the
expenses and a 2013 California Public
Employee Retirement System policy will
contribute to the slow decline of the citys
general fund balance, Culver said.
The CalPERS Board of Directors urges
municipalities to have their employee liabilities fully funded within the next 30
years. Despite it being a decades-long plan,
CalPERS recommends ramping up rates
over the next five years beginning the coming year, according to Culver.
Based on the new policy and current projections, the citys pension liability contributions currently at $9.5 million per year
is anticipated to increase 50 percent, or by
$4.7 million, over the next five years,
according to Culver.
Another statewide policy consideration is
how future transportation costs will be
funded, particularly with state officials considering reverting from a gas tax to a miles
traveled fee to account for the growing use
of electric vehicles.
The city is set to lose approximately 25
percent of its gas tax revenue, Culver said.
It typically receives $2.7 million, part of
which it spends on a paving program and
other street improvements, but it will
decrease to $2.1 million next year, Culver
said.
I see gas tax going down. I think its
going to take a while to see any type of
state action to replace this revenue for
transportation, Culver said. Its going to
be a big debate on how to pay for transportation. Essentially people are driving
electric vehicles and theyre not paying
what other people are paying for the same
privilege of driving on the streets.
San Mateo has millions in capital
improvement needs, many of which are currently being evaluated as the city implements a new program allowing officials and
the public to have a comprehensive picture
by outlining all projects, even if theyre
unfunded or havent been started.
Nearly $25 million is need to rehabilitate
streets and fixing the citys levee and pump
stations which prevent flooding by
diverting storm water require another
$23.5 million.
Along with city staff from various departments outlining capital improvement projects from new parks to failing sewers and
cracked streets to facility improvements,
the city will be conducting a survey asking
voters how theyd like to pay for infrastructure improvements.
Lets see what the entirety of the needs
are out there, Culver said. Even if we dont
have money to fund every single thing, we
want to know what they are.

DISTRICT
Continued from page 4
ted to people and what got me interested in
working at a special district is the ability to
take the science and apply it practically to
protect public health. And to be able to
translate the science to everyday ordinary
people and be able to actually do something
with that science to protect public health,
Peavey said.
She will be replacing former longtime
manager Robert Gay, whose contract was
not renewed by the districts Board of
Directors last year. The district faced significant scrutiny after two employees were
convicted of embezzling around $500,000
in taxpayer funds between 2009 and 2011.
The case prompted a San Mateo County
Civil Grand Jury investigation of the district in 2013 and led to widespread management and oversight changes at the district.
Peavey said along with a new finance
director, conducting background checks on
new staff and having the board review
monthly financial reports, things are looking up for the district.
The district has implemented the
changes that were suggested and theyve
implemented a lot of very robust internal
control systems and theyve really come a
long way, Peavey said. They have a number of new staff and new board members and
I think theyre doing an excellent job. I
think the important thing going forward is
going to be for the district to protect public
health.
Health challenges are growing as mosquitoes carrying West Nile Virus were identified
for the first time ever in the county last year
and a new breed of invasive mosquito has
also recently arrived, Peavey said.
A lot has changed since I left the district,
so really the first thing that I need to do is
kind of assess whats happening there. I
know aedes aegypti, (mosquitoes which are
known to spread yellow and dengue fever,)
have arrived in San Mateo County and thats

director, Marietta Harris, also announced at
the boards Feb. 18 meeting that she is
resigning from the agency March 6, two
days after the boards next meeting.
Although the departures come at a bad
time for the district, Brennan has condence
the district can weather the storm even without a captain at the helm.
Filling the general managers position
with the right person is key to the districts
success, Brennan said.
Id like to see the Harbor District become
an example of what a highly-functioning
special district can be, Brennan said.
It could be an uphill battle, however, as
the San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury recommended last year that the district be dissolved and turned over to the county in a
report titled What is the Price of
Dysfunction?
Although the district collects fees, it still
receives $5 million a year in local property

eras to track new cars the moment after they
are sold.
Nearly 1.8 million vehicles are purchased
in California each year and driven away
without a license plate. While current laws
provide permanent plates be installed upon
receipt or within 90 days, many opt to drive
without them as minimal enforcement
allows people to avoid paying tolls or
escape being identified by law enforcement,
said Elena Santamaria, a legislative aide in
Mullins office.
Current law provides dealers must affix a
piece of paper on the car with a vehicle
identification number and submit an application to register it with the DMV. It doesnt require cars immediately display paper
license plates with a registered license plate
number that is logged with the DMV.
Mullins legislation would require new
and used cars without permanent plates be
immediately issued a paper plate with a temporary number that is logged with the DMV.
Due to the states current law, the Bay Area
is missing out on nearly $8 million in revenue from uncollected bridge tolls and
Maas said.
Our concerns last year were technical
concerns about workability and implementation. And were very hopeful we can work
those out with Assemblymember Mullin. So
were very optimistic, Maas said.
AB 516 will likely be heard in the
Assembly committees on transportation
and appropriations, Santamaria said.
According to an analysis of AB 2197, it
was estimated the DMV would have ongoing
costs of $2.4 million the first year and
approximately $5 million annually thereafter. Buyers would absorb much of the cost
by paying around $5 for the temporary
plates, Santamaria said.
With the millions in uncollected bridge
tolls falling through the cracks and law
enforcements ability to identify suspects
obstructed, Santamaria said its an important effort to undertake a second time.
Its a public safety issue, its a transportation issue. The state is losing out on
revenue to help alleviate other problems in
the Bay Area in terms of transportation,
Santamaria said. So we think its a good
bill and hopefully well get farther than we
did last year.
