RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE ADOPTION OF

TWIN TRAILERS ON STATE HIGHWAYS
WHEREAS, the State of Minnesota is one of the two states in this region
that does not allow the use of twin trailers on its highways, and

i
\,
WHEREAS, this restrictive law has forced motor carriers now using the
efficient twin trailers in other states to rehandle freight on the
southern and western borders of Minnesota, and to bypass the state
entirely, resulting in a transportation system that is costly, ineffi-
cient and has caused the loss of hundreds of jobs in Minnesota, and
WHEREAS, the vast majority of business, industry and consumers in the
City of Hastings, Dakota County and in our area are dependent on service
by motor carriers for all commodities thay receive and ship to and from
all points in the United States, and
WHEREAS, efficiency in transportation is vital to the economy of Minne-
sota since it affects every citizen of our state, we believe that the
passage of legislation authorizing twin trailers in Minnesota would
enable Minnesota's motor carrier industry to remain competitive with
other modes of transportation and with industry in neighboring states
to the ultimate benefit of the businessman and the consumer,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that for the best interest and benefit
of our business community and the consumers of this area, the City
Council of the City of Hasting~, Minnesota, herewith recommends and
supports legislation which will authorize the use of 65-foot long com-
bination truck units consisting of a tractor and two semi-trailers in
the State of Minnesota on such highways as the Legislatures may determine.
r
The Senators and Representatives of the people of the City of Hastings,
Councy of Dakota are herewith called upon to support and work for the
adoption of this legislation, and the Clerk is hereby directed to trans-
mit copies of this resolution to the legislative representatives from
this area, to the Chairman of the House Reg a Industries Committee,
to the Chairman of the Senate Public Highwa s Co ittee, and to the
Governor of the State of Minnesota.
