New Rule High Cost Of
Trucking Studied
For years the high cost
of truck transportation
has hampered expansion
of local industris in the
Grass Valley-Nevada
City area, an area which
depends almost entirely
on truck transportation.
Could these rates be
made competitive with
those for other areas as
an aid to promote economic growth? The Nevada County OEDP Committee, appointed by the
board of supervisors to
study the county’s economic ill, asked the help
of the newly-formed Nevada County Chamber of
Commerce to find out
what could be done and
how to go about it.
After several months of
investigation by the
county chamber with various business people in
the communities and motor truck carriers, the
committee found that
tariff rates could be im‘ proved with the cooperation of carriers and a
united front by local
shippers and receivers.
The first step was to
obtain published interstate tariff rates.
Through the assistance of
Jack Crawford, tariff
rate consultant, the local
motor truck carriers
agreed to approach the
Rocky Mountain Tariff
Bureau to obtain published transcontinental
freight rates for interstate shipments.
The work of the county
chamber and the OEDP
Committee shows promise of favorable action in
the very near future to
secure competitive
freight truck rates. John
Gallegos, executive manager of the county chamber, reports that class
rates similar to those
enjoyed by Marysville and
Yuba City are likely to
be obtained. This would
be a substantial reduction in many motor
freight rates to shippers
and receivers in the
Grass Valley and Nevada
City areas, and should
prove to be a boon to
the economy of these
communities.
The Nevada City Chamber of Commerce July 21
adopted the purchase order system for all purchases by and for the organization.
To be valid, suchorders
must bear the signature
of a member of the finance committee, they
being until further notified.
