To that end, AQMD monitors air quality; controls stationary sources; produces a plan every three years and promulgates the ride -share program. The City's role is exercised through the development plan (smart growth), traffic control, clean fuel vehicles, and the ride -share program.

AQMD meets with residents at town hall meetings and each month a newsletter is forwarded to Members of the City Council. City Council Mins Sept 21, 1999 1
