<title>Long Beach Council balks on $2 billion truck lease</title>
<link>http://truckersandcitizensunite.com/home//modules.php?name=News&amp;file=article&amp;sid=25</link>
<description>http://www.landlinemag.com/todays_news/Daily/2008/Jul08/070708/071108-07.htm
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Long Beach Council balks on $2 billion truck lease program The Long Beach City Council has reportedly agreed to reconsider the port’s truck replacement plan because of disagreement about the plan’s financing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The Long Beach Press-Telegram reported this past week that Council members voted 6-0 to revisit the $2 billion financing portion of the port’s clean truck plan by the end of the summer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

The financing plan calls for drivers to be eligible for partially subsidized loans to obtain newer, cleaner-burning trucks with late model engines.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

“I don’t think it makes fiscal sense or serves the public interest to lend money to these low-income drivers who are going to find it very difficult to meet their monthly payments,” The Press Telegram quoted Candace Kim of the Coalition for Clean Air. “If I were an elected official, I would want to make sure that the truck replacement program is going to work in the long term.
”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Port of Long Beach recently agreed to allow Daimler Financial Services for an estimated $2 billion in loans to local drayage drivers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

All trucks working at the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles will be required to meet 2007 emissions standards by the year 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
