RESOLUTION NO. 7286
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA SUPPORTING PROPOSITION 1
The City Council of the City of Chula vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, nearly 1,000,000 people had to be turned away
from parks and beaches in California last year, because of over-
whelming demands being made on outdoor recreation, and
WHEREAS, almost 90% of the visitors to California's
parks and beaches are residents of this state, and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 on the June 4th statewide ballot
will provide $250 million for new facilities and the development
of existing resources, for historical features of the State Park
System, and for fish and wildlife conservation, and
WHEREAS, $90 million of this will be granted directly
to all California counties for the use of local government, which
throughout the state is in dire need of park funds, while the
demand for local parks has increased in urgency because of the
energy crisis, and
WHEREAS, these local parks will be created and developed
at no cost to the property taxpayer, and
WHEREAS, proposition 1 is a bond issue that will be
repaid by more than one generation of park users, and
WHEREAS, the need for immediate action is accentuated
by threatened loss of potential parkland to development, and the
increasing cost of land.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby endorse proposition 1, for
the preservation of our state's natural environment in the face
of the current park crisis, and calls on all Californians to cast
a resounding YES vote for Proposition 1 on June 4th.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City
of Chula Vista be, and she is hereby directed to forward a certi-
fied copy of this resolution to "Californians for Parks, Beaches
and Wildlife" and other interested parties.
