It is necessary that a transit district be established in the Stockton metropolitan area which includes the City of Stockton and adjacent territory situated in San Joaquin County in order to meet the transit problem of the area. The problem is unique in that presently there are several existing transportation facilities serving various parts of the area but independently operated, without interchange of transportation services, and without possibility of merger. The geographic location of the city to the area requiring transportation services makes it necessary to develop a single transit system to protect the public interest.
