RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA SUPPORTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE
5UNDESERT NUCLEAR POWER PLANT BY SAN DIEGO GAS
AND ELECTRIC COMPANY
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Chula Vista,
although lacking in indepth technical expertise in the entire
matter of nuclear power plants, has very carefully weighed the
arguments pro and con for the construction of the Sundesert
Nuclear Power Plant, and
WHEREAS, based upon all of the arguments thus presented,
primarily the realistic appraisal of electrical needs which will
be greatly in demand to bring vitally needed water to the areas,
as well as to power present and new industrial plants, it is
apparent that for the foreseeable future no combination of alter-
native sources of power can possibly satisfy such needs without
augmentation by nuclear power plants, and
WHEREAS, the safety record on a worldwide basis of
nuclear power plants is so significantly good that a rejection
of the use of nuclear power plants in an age of constantly dim-
inishing resources for the supply of energy is clearly unwarranted.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council
of the City of Chula Vista that the City Council does hereby
strongly support the construction of the Sundesert Nuclear Power
Plant by the San Diego Gas and Electric Company and urges all
citizens to support this program, while at the same time directing
increased research and development activities to the utilization
of alternate sources of energy.
