State Transportation Commission Meets on Freeway Funds' Allocation

After lobbying motorists yesterday on the LA's Westside, Mayor Villaraigosa flew off to Sacramento for today's meeting of the State Transportation Commission. Local leaders were furious at the way the Commission staff allocated the first of $20 billion in bonds passed last November. Supervisor Gloria Molina called it "an insult to the people of Los Angeles County." Evan Halper keeps track of the Transportation Commission for the Los Angeles Times in Sacramento.
