RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA OPPOSING AB 1740 WHICH CREATES THE CALIFORNIA
ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, Assemblyman Brathwaite has introduced amendments
to the State Planning Act as contained in AB 1740, which would
create a California Zoning Board of Appeals consisting of eight
members to be appointed by the Governor to hear and decide appeals
from local zoning decisions, and the appeal procedure would be
applicable to bother chartered as well as general law cities
and counties, and
WHEREAS, said board would introduce an element in the
zoning concept heretofore totally unknown in any state and would
by its terms and effects repeal the Superior Courts in their
power to review zoning decisions, and
WHEREAS, the composition of the board, as mandated by
the proposed bill, clearly intends to remove traditional local
concepts of zoning and introduce economic and sociological factors
to such a degree as to create total chaos in the area of planning
and zoning in the State of California, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Staff has strongly recommended that
the City Council of the City of Chula Vista take a stand in oppo-
sition to said bill.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista on behalf of themselves and the citizens
of this community does hereby go on record as opposing AB 1740
creating a California Zoning Board of Appeals, which would totally
eliminate the concept of zoning as a municipal affair and would in
fact destroy more so than any other legislation previously adopted,
the concept of home rule by interfering in the single most impor-
tant process of government in any community.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City
of Chula Vista be, and she is hereby authorized and directed to
forward a certified copy of this resolution to Senator James R.
Mills, Assemblyman Wadie P. Deddeh, and all other members of the
San Diego County Legislative Delegation.
