RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA OPPOSING AB 206 PERTAINING TO BINDING ARBITRA-
TION FOR POLICEMEN AND FIREMEN
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, AB 206 would affect drastic and far-reaching
changes to the Meyers-Milias Brown Act as it relates to local
safety members which would impose unwarranted restrictions upon
the governing body of municipalities in negotiating with safety
employees, and
WHEREAS, it would provide for mediation, factfinding, and
binding findings and recommendations by a Board of Review which would
be tantamount to binding arbitration thus leaving the final deter-
mination of the settlement of labor disputes in the hands of a Board
of Review which has no responsibility for the collection of taxes
and revenues necessary to support such labor settlements, and
WHEREAS, AB 206 constitutes an unwarranted interference
in the management process of local municipalities, destroys the
basic concepts of home rule and demonstrates an irresponsible
attitude on the part of the Legislature toward the management func-
tions of the duly elected representatives of the people at the
local level.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby urge all citizens to oppose
AB 206 and to urge their legislative representatives to vote
against AB 206 as being adverse to the interests of the local com-
munity and the right of the citizens to achieve effective represen-
tation in matters directly affecting their tax liabilities.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City of
Chula Vista be, and she is hereby authorized and directed to forward
certified copies of this resolution to Senator James Mills, Assembly-
man Wadie Deddeh and all members of the San Diego County Legislative
Delegation.
