CORONADO BRIDGE TOLL IS BACK
Written Communications – PC
Curry – Received 10/10/24
Coronado residents, military personal and North Island contractors had been paying Coronado bridge toll for 33 years
"More than $197 million in tolls have been collected during that time, first in 60-cent increments each way, then, in 1980, as a $1.20 fee for southbound traffic entering the city. Eight years later the toll dropped to $1; motorists who purchased a discount book crossed for 60 cents. Trucks paid more. Tolls paid off $48 million in construction bonds. After 1986, the toll was used to maintain the two-mile span and to pay toll collectors and manage the booths, eating up about half of the span’s nearly $6 million annual take in tolls. After 33 years, it’s toll no more bridging the gap between San Diego and Coronado is free at last. The toll booths are an issue as well. Some residents and commuters believe keeping them might make it easier to bring back the toll at a later date The debt was paid in 1986. Several former government officials have argued that former Gov. Ronald Reagan promised that the tolls would end when the bonds were repaid." https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2022/06/25/automobile-toll-eliminated-on-coronado- bridge-20-years-ago/

KPBS Report SANDAG Misled Voters On 2004 Tax Measure
Showing Pattern Of Deception Goes Back At Least 13 Years "The San Diego Association of Governments knowingly misled voters in 2004 about how much money it expected to raise from a new sales tax. The deception allowed the agency to overstate how much it could accomplish for regional transportation, transit operations and local infrastructure projects throughout the county in the coming decades. Voters approved the tax increase – and have been paying more money in taxes for 13 years – based on the false projection that appeared on the ballot."

STOP THE SANDAG MEASURE G TAX
"Stop the SANDAG lies and Broken Promises. Vote “No” on Measure G. This proposal is completely out of touch with reality. This is not the time to put an additional tax on the people. Electricity, gas prices, fire insurance, and housing have all gone up, and this is a time for relief and belt-tightening, not piling on to the high cost of everything. In 2004, San Diegans voted to extend a half-cent sales
tax for 40 years starting in 2008. In exchange, SANDAG promised to relieve traffic congestion by making critical highway improvements. Those promises have been unfulfilled while public transit has received the majority of the dollars. Politicians and leaders should do all they can to lower the
