| Comment |
Dear CARB Board members, In response to proposals to phase out internal combustion engines, Kern County commissioned an independent fiscal study on the land use implications for the loss of gas stations and related repair and service shops as well as jobs. The included link to the report shows a $90 million annual loss to Kern County General Fund. In addition we provided an online calculator for other cities and counties to calculate their potential impacts. This is a conservative report and we welcome a discussion on our assumptions and other ideas being considered. https://kernplanning.com/proposed-ab-1745-clean-cars-2040-act-economic-impact-calculator/ Thank you for the opportunity to participate. |
