    Los Angeles Bibliography

    A HISTORICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN THE LOS ANGELES METROPOLITAN AREA Compiled by Richard Longstreth 1998, revised 16 May 2018 This listing focuses on historical studies, with an emphasis is on scholarly work published during the past thirty years. I have also included a section on popular pictorial histories due to the wealth of information they afford. To keep the scope manageable, the geographic area covered is primarily limited to Los Angeles and Orange counties, except in cases where a community, such as Santa Barbara; a building, such as the Mission Inn; or an architect, such as Irving Gill, are of transcendent importance to the region. Thanks go to Kenneth Breisch, Dora Crouch, Thomas Hines, Greg Hise, Gail Ostergren, and Martin Schiesl for adding to the list. Additions, corrections, and updates are welcome.

    Public Transportation Modernization, Improvement, and Service Enhancement Account Program Background

    CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Annual Legislative Report Fiscal Year 2012-13 Public Transportation Modernization, Improvement, and Service Enhancement Account Program Background The Public Transportation Modernization, Improvement, and Service Enhancement Account (PTMISEA) Program was created by the passage of Proposition 1B, the Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006. Of the $19,925 billion available to transportation, $4 billion dollars was allocated to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for intercity rail projects and for commuter or urban rail operators, bus operators, waterborne transit operators, or other transit operators in California. The PTMISEA Program provides funding for rehabilitation, safety or modernization improvements, capital service enhancements or expansions, new capital projects, bus rapid transit improvements, or for rolling stock procurement, rehabilitation, or replacement, over a ten-year period. General obligation bond law requires the administrative agency to submit a report to the California State Legislature no later than January 1st each year. This requirement is found in California Government Code section 16724.4. In addition, this section states that the report shall contain: (1) A list of all projects and their geographical location that have been funded or are required or authorized to receive funds. (2) The amount of funds allocated on each project. (3) The status of any project required or authorized to be funded. Caltrans has established the Proposition 1B Bond Accountability website and has posted this information related to each project. Caltrans administered programs can be accessed from the Intercity Rail Improvement (IRI) and the PTMISEA links at this address: www.bondaccountability.dot.ca.gov/bondacc/ Mass Transportation Program Proposition IB Bond Fund Of the $4 billion available in PTMISEA, $3.6 billion is to be allocated to transit operators over a ten-year period.
