Abstract: The Jacqueline Bacharach office records document late
twentieth century Los Angeles transit history. By the early 1980's it became clear
that the division of power and responsibilities between the Los Angeles County
Transportation Commission (LACTC), local transit agencies such as the Southern
California Rapid Transit District (SCRTD), and local government bodies was proving
to be an obstacle to the rational and efficient development of a countywide mass
transit system. The reports and office correspondence in this collection illustrate
how these problems and their solutions were being formulated and developed by the
LACTC. Also at this time, the LACTC and its sister transit agencies were preparing
to re-introduce rail lines as part of the mass transit system of Los Angeles County.
Samples of the reports and studies generated at the early stages of these projects
are represented here. Detailed descriptions of series and folders is contained in
the Arrangement and Description section of this finding aid.

Biography / Administrative History
The Los Angeles County Transportation Commission (LACTC) was created by the
California State legislature in 1976 as part of the County Transportation
Commissions Act. The privately owned and operated companies which had dominated
public transit in Los Angeles since the 1890's had given way in the 1960's to an
array of uncoordinated and disconnected publicly held agencies operating at state,
county and local levels. The mandate of the commissions was to oversee mass transit
planning and policy setting at the regional level, coordinating the previously
disparate efforts of the various local agencies and government bodies involved in
mass transit construction and operations.
The LACTC consisted of elected representatives from both county and municipal
governments and a private citizen appointed by the LA mayor and approved by the city
council. In 1980 LA County voters approved Proposition A, which established a
half-cent sales tax to fund regional transit planning and construction. 35% of the
revenues were to be allocated to rail, 25% to local cities for their local transit
needs, and the remaining 40% were designated as discretionary funds that would be
allocated as the LACTC saw fit. Due to legal wrangling, the tax did not go into
effect until 1982.
Jacqueline Bacharach came on board the commission in April of 1982. In 1980 she had
been elected to the city council of Rancho Palos Verdes, where she would serve as
mayor for three terms. Jacqueline was born in Chicago and raised in the San Fernando
Valley. She attended UCLA and graduated with a degree in Political Science. While at
UCLA she was active in the Young Democrats.
Bacharach was an active and committed commissioner. She chaired the Planning and
Mobility Improvement Committee for most of her years on the LACTC. She was part of
the inter-county agency that spearheaded commuter rail in the five counties of
Southern California. Later she was its first chairwoman when it became the Southern
California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA) in 1991 (SCRRA today operates Metrolink
service). Jacqueline also headed the Rail Construction Corporation and the Blue Line
Committee at the time that Los Angeles was just beginning to rebuild its passenger
rail service.
During her term as LACTC Chairwoman, Bacharach prioritized system integration and
good public relations. In 1985, shortly after being elected Chairwoman, she stated
in ProMotion, the LACTC newsletter, her belief that "the key to progress...is a high
degree of cooperation and coordination among the other agencies involved with
transportation, such as SCRTD, SCAG, CTC, and Caltrans. Therefore, more
understanding and consideration of each other's needs and perspectives is one of my
highest priorities for my term as Commission chair". Bacharach also understood that
LA's transportation system was more than government business, it impacted every
citizen of the county. According to her, "everyone in this county, no matter who
they are, is affected by our transportation system. Therefore, we must share the
message of our activities as often as we can". Underlying her goals and principles,
was a keen awareness of the unique and important role that transportation played in
weaving together the urban fabric: "The transportation network is the spine upon
which the body grows. Housing, air quality, water availability, goods movement,
commercial and industrial success - all depend on adequate transportation."
Since leaving the LACTC, Jacqueline Bacharach has continued to be involved in transit
planning and design. She has served as Executive Director of the South Bay Cities
Council of Governments (SBCCOG), is part of the Executive Committee of Mobility 21,
a transit advocacy group in Los Angeles County, and is also involved in Compass, an
organization dedicated to sustainable development in Southern California. In
addition, Bacharach launched her own transit consultation firm, Jacqueline Bacharach
& Associates.
