Coronado Officials Protest Ferry Rate Hike at Hearing
Coronado city officials led by City Attorney J R Goodbody opposed the San Diego and Coronado Ferry Company rate increase calling it an undue hardship on residents at a State Public Utilities Commission hearing in the San Diego Civic Center. The ferry firm proposed six tokens for 50 cents, equating to 81 3 8 cents per token, while seeking to raise auto and passenger charges from 30 cents per car to 35 cents and from 5 to 10 cents per additional passenger.
