His next focus is on the Planning Commission’s maneuver to place the burden of environmental impact reports on the individual versus the city.

A Different Slant 069: Mileage Tax
Host John Flavin is horrified by the decision of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and the Association of Bay Area Governments to go forward with a study of a mileage tax on Bay Area drivers, which could potentially raise $15 million a day. The implementation of this tax would require the installation of a GPS-like odometer in every car to track mileage. . . and your daily activities. Big Brother, anyone? John urges his listeners to contact their elected officials and nip this study in the bud. John shudders to think what else the Commission and Association have up their sleeves. . .
