TO AMEND THE MAYO-BREED FORMULA FOR THE ALLOCATION

WHEREAS, true State highway needs for the Southern
Counties group, based on the urgency of traffic demands and

excess of 60 percent of the State-wide total, and
WHEREAS, the existing critical traffic congestion,
accidents and fatalities in the Southern Counties area must
be immediately alleviated, and

Counties provide in excess of 60 percent of the State-wide high-
way revenue, and

ion Funds to the South which curtails the budgeting of urgently
needed projects and eliminates a program of equitable future

cil of the City of National City endorses a legislative pro-
gram to amend the Mayo -Breed Formula to allocate a minimum of
60 percent of the State Highway Construction Funds to the 13

Supervisors and City Council in the 13 Southern Counties af-
fected to actively support such a program, and
