Instigating what one Peninsula politician said would be a “border war,” some San Mateo County officials said they would try to implement a toll to enter the county from the north during rush hour if San Francisco enacts a similar entrance fee for its city. The threat by Peninsula leaders is an effort to persuade San Francisco leaders to shelve their plan.
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors, acting as the city’s transportation authority, will vote Tuesday on whether to launch a study of the toll program that, if later approved by city and state leaders, would take effect in 2015.
