INFRASTRUCTURE from page 1 Held in Sherman Oaks, Bakersfield, San Pablo and Sacramento, the Governor and local officials from in and around the cities focused on the impact the bond measures' passage would have on the local area and the state as a whole. Cities, home to more than 80 percent of California's approximate 37 million residents, would particularly benefit from the increased funding for infrastructure projects, given the sharp influx of people into the state. "Propositions 1A through 1E and 84 are crucial to the development of cities and communities throughout California," said League Executive Director Chris McKenzie at the Sherman Oaks event. UWith the state's population increasing by 500,000 each year, cities need to respond with more housing, schools, improved transportation systems, flood control and other infrastructure projects to support California's growth. The infrastructure bond package will help provide the funding do that. Every city and community in California wins."
