Provision to inspect
Government Code §65912.156 defines qualifying transit and an urban transit county, including a threshold of more than 15 passenger rail stations. The chaptered text supports this historical summary.
Relationship to the ideas
Related precedent / applicability unresolved. A Santa Nella location’s eligibility is unverified. This does not establish campus funding, a qualifying station, a grant or permission to build.
Verification and limits

The next question
