RESOLUTION NO. 10978
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA lRGING THE LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES TO ENDORSE
THE LIMITATION OF TERRITORIAL EXPANSION OF SPECIAL
DISTRICTS TO PRECLUDE THE INCLUSION OF ANY NONCONTIGUOUS
TERRITORIES IN SPECIAL DISTRICTS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the cities of the State of California believed
that the District Reorganization Act of 1965 would result in the
reduction of the number of special districts and the advancement
of general government to the overall benefit of all of the people
of the State of California, but especially those in more urbanized
areas, and
WHEREAS, all of the officials of the State of California
who so strongly supported the Reorganization Act and the formation
of LAFCO from Governor Pat Brown to Assemblyman John Knox truly
believed that such a dramatic change would result therefrom, and
WHEREAS, the experience of 17 years has been at best a
totally contrary result with the continued expansion of the
members of special districts, and at worst, the constant expansion
of both territory and authority of existing special districts, and
WHEREAS, such expansion with its authority to include
noncontiguous territory within the special district results not
only in a total corruption of the principles of the District
Reorganization Act, but a frustration of the legitimate func-
tioning of general purpose governments.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula vista does hereby urge the Legislature to once
again undertake a thorough reanalysis of the problems of special
districts, of all annexation procedures, and more particularly, to
immediately end the ability of special districts to annex noncon-
tiguous territory for the provision of their single purpose
service.
