Report to JPA: Projects mostly on track

Sacramento-Placerville Transportation Corridor JPA

Rackovan reported that on Oct. 11 the Folsom City Council, as one of the members of the Joint Powers Authority, denied the request from El Dorado County to remove rails from a portion of the Rail Corridor in western El Dorado County. The other member agencies are Sacramento County and Regional Transit. Under the JPA’s Reciprocal Use and Funding Agreement, the JPA “shall not transfer any interest in the rail corridor without obtaining prior written consent of the member agencies.”
