  • Requires the Board of Supervisors to make specific findings and conduct at least 2 public outreach meetings before adopting an ordinance, including determining the program's likelihood of success and alignment with regional transportation plans.

  • Mandates the ordinance designate a program administrator with authority to impose vehicle fees, collect revenues, and manage the program, while evaluating policies to maintain access for elderly, disabled, and low-income individuals.

  • Requires the program administrator to submit reports to the Legislature one year and five years after the pilot program begins, evaluating performance against established congestion reduction objectives and goals.
