§ 40614 Transit District Consolidation Resolution

• •When the Southern California Rapid Transit District gets a signed agreement from Orange County, they must vote to officially combine the two transit systems.
• •After the vote, they must send a certified copy of their decision to the Secretary of State.
• •Once the Secretary of State gets the paperwork, the two transit systems are officially merged.

Imagine two bus companies, one in Los Angeles and one in Orange County, decide to become one big company.

The Los Angeles company gets a signed paper from Orange County saying they agree to merge. Then, the Los Angeles company’s leaders vote to make it official and send the decision to the state government. Once the state gets the paper, the two bus companies are now one.
