"The new transportation agency would be a reorganized version of the SANDAG [San Diego Association of Governments] board, currently composed of one person from each of the county's 18 cities and a representative of county government. The city of San Diego would send an additional representative to the new panel, and a new voting system would require both a traditional board majority and approval by members representing a majority of the county population."
