TO : HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOE GUARRERA, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES
VIA: HENRY GARCIA, CITY ADMINISTRATOR l
DATE: OCTOBER 27, 1994
SUBJECT: PROPOSED METROLINK SHUTTLE SERVICE
Background
Since the opening of the Covina Metrolink station in October of
1992, the Transportation Division of the Community Services
Department has received many inquires suggesting a possible need
for a shuttle service from Azusa to this Metro station. During
this same period, the City, in response to Regulation XV require-
ments, debuted its Commuter Services Program to assist our em-
ployees in using alternative forms of transportation to the
worksite. Many of our city staff are now using the Metrolink to
get to work.
In order to fill the need of these individuals, the Transit
Division instituted a Metrolink shuttle van in April of this
year. The shuttle would run on a trial basis only and would
provide us an opportunity to gather ridership data. This data
would be used to determine if there was sufficient demand to
establish this as a permanent service to the community.
Findings
Over the past six months, this service has proven to be a growing
success, with ridership increasing from 35 in April to 215 in
October. We believe this increase in monthly riders is signifi-
cant because it has been accomplished mainly through word-of-
mouth referrals rather than by any other substantial advertising
or promotional means.
In light of the above findings and in view of the fact that the
City also receives both Regulation XV and Congestion Management
Plan credits for measures that will reduce traffic congestion in
our community, staff is recommending that Council approve the
adoption of a City Metrolink shuttle service. The initial pro-
posed budget for this service would be $25,000.00 for FY 1994-95.
Funds would come from Proposition C revenues and would have no
impact on the General Fund.
Recommendation
Authorize staff to amend agreement with the Metropolitan Trans-
portation Authority to allow for a City Metrolink Shuttle to and
from Azusa and the Covina station.

14 July 1994
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Clerk
The enclosed ordinance adopting and enacting a new municipal code
for the City, comes to you after approximately three years of joint
efforts by our present and preceding City Attorney law firms and
Municipal Code Corporation, of Tallahassee, Florida.
It represents a much needed updating, unifying and reorganizing of
our collection of local laws; however, because extensive changes
will be required to forms, signs and miscellaneous other media that
display ordinance section numbers, the ordinance shall not become
effective until 1 December 1994, in order to provide city forces
ample time to make the needed changes

Re: Azusa Code
Dear Mr. Solis:
I am pleased to advise that 100 copies of the Azusa Code in mechanical binders were shipped
to you on June 28, 1994, via United Parcel Service.
Enclosed is a suggested ordinance for use in adopting the Code. We urge you to have the
ordinance adopted at an early date and return a copy to us, so that it can be included in a
Supplement. We will also need a copy of each ordinance that has been adopted since April 18,
1994. Please send all material to Rebecca DeNeve, our Director of Electronic Publishing, who
will work with you to make sure that Supplements are published on whatever schedule you
desire. It is my suggestion that you send any additional ordinances for the first Supplement as
soon as possible, so that the Code can be brought up-to-date without delay.
A card announcing the availability of the new Code is enclosed. If the city would like to have
cards for mailing to prospective purchasers of the Code, please advise us of the number of cards
you desire. These cards are available at no charge.
I appreciate the help and assistance you and the other officials of the city gave to me during the
codification process.
Sincerely,
i
