STAFF REPORT
STAFF REPORT
The San Bernardino Associated Governments has established a
commuter rail committee to consider the feasibility of
commuter rail between San Bernardino County and Los Angeles.
A preliminary assessment of potential commuter rail station
locations has established a potential station site in the
City of San Bernardino at the Amtrak station. Although each
city will be formally requested to review and comment on the
proposed station locations in their jurisdiction, it is
recommended that the attached resolution be adopted at this
time which supports the concept of commuter rail as well as
the placement of a station in the City limits.
