RESTATED JOINT EXERCISE OF POWER AGREEMENT
Councilman Taylor asked when the funds for this project will be received in order to pass
them along to ACE.
Councilman Bruesch explained that federal money will be allocated in the budget and can
be used as collateral for a loan, but it sometimes takes up to three years to get that money into the
bank. ACE has passed the feasibility study and are now in the design phase. Mr. Bruesch stated
that the study includes streets that will affect Rosemead, such as San Gabriel Boulevard with the
possibility of undergrounding or bridging the tracks. Also being studied are upgrades for
Encinita and Lower Azusa, and a state of the art train horn system installed at intersections that
will sound down the street toward the drivers rather than the horns currently on trains that throw
sound at residential areas. Mr. Bruesch stated these are expensive projects and ACE will
probably experience a cash flow problem by next year.
