The Authority's enabling legislation requires the preparation and adoption of an Annual Report by January of each year "on the progress to achieve the objectives of completion of the projects in the adopted county transportation expenditure plan" (Sec. 131303 of the Public Utilities Code). The Annual Report is not a policy document. It is a report by Authority staff on progress toward achieving Expenditure Plan objectives. Adoption of the Annual Report is, therefore, not a statement of policy, but rather a ministerial action designed to ensure compliance with the annual reporting requirements in state law, also reflected in Section 2(d) of the Authority's Administrative Code. Other Items 17. Introduction of New Items - INFORMATION During this segment of the meeting, Board members may make comments on items not specifically listed above, or introduce or request items for future consideration. 18.
