Dear Chairperson Nichols,

I urge the California Air Resources Board to pursue strong,
vigorous
implementation of the Sustainable Communities and Climate
Protection
Act (SB 375). This law will help improve local economies, reduce
our
infrastructure costs and create jobs while also reducing air and
global
warming pollution.

The board can demonstrate strong leadership and ensure the law
reaches
its full potential in two ways:

1. Establish ambitious regional global warming pollution reduction
targets.
2. Exercise your full powers to identify and support financial
resources that cities and towns can use for planning and other
activities that meet the goals of SB 375.

I urge the board to adopt ambitious targets for California to meet
the
goals of the legislation, including reducing traffic and chronic
illness; making our communities healthier and more competitive;
and
confirming California leadership on issues of growth,
sustainability,
public health and overall livability.

Please exercise your full power to secure funding for
implementation of
this landmark law.

Sincerely,

Mr. Chris Ashton
