WHEREAS, the need for a Veterans Home in Southern California is well established,

Southern California Veterans Home to advise the Governor and the Legislature on the

provide shelter and services to 400 veterans and create 200 to 300 new local jobs; and,

Veterans Home in Chula Vista would be very significant; and,

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA does hereby
find, order, determine, and resolve as follows:
