RE: Request for Statement of Support for Space Enterprise in your Community
The California Space Authority (CSA) serves as a policy advisor to the Secretary of the
California Technology, Trade and Commerce Agency and the Governor on all space enterprise
matters. We work to maximize the State's space enterprise potential by developing, managing,
coordinating funding for, or otherwise supporting California-based space assets
Involvement from local governments is vital to our success; therefore, we attempt to engage with
local officials as much as possible. In fact, your voices are often more clearly heard in
Sacramento than others'. Consequently, increasing your involvement in support of space
enterprise development issues would benefit all of us as we work to educate Sacramento and
Washington, DC policy makers about the space sector and its economic benefits to our
communities.
The following is a draft policy resolution we ask you to cogsider. By obtaining such resolutions
from local governments and community leadership organizations we can better obtain the
attention of state and federal decision makers. Please feel free to use this draft as a model to
incorporate your own, local information. Once completed, please provide copies to our offices
so we may help distribute them.
Thank you for your interest and cooperation. If you have any question, please call me at 916-
551 -1543 or review our website at www.califtimiaspaceauthority.org.

DRAFT LOCAL GOVERNMENT
SPACE POLICY
Whereas, large clusters of space enterprise manufacturers have settled in California thereby
making this state one of the few in the nation with the end -to -end capabilities of research and
design, manufacture, launch, and systems management; and,
Whereas, our community has long benefited from the jobs and economic growth that has
occurred due to a prosperous space enterprise climate in California and we boast today
approximately jobs in our community associated with space enterprise; and,
Whereas, as growth in space enterprise services such as global positioning systems, remote
sensing and satellite imaging continues to evolve from an industry dominated by governmental
contracts to one that is commercially- driven and project oriented, our community is certain to
build upon our economic foundation as new markets are created by the demands of consumers;
and,
Whereas, at least 40 countries and 18 states are eagerly competing for a share of the expansion
of the worldwide space market, thereby creating competition to our community in its ability to
retain and grow the estimated space enterprise businesses located within our borders;
and,
Whereas, in the past several years our community has lost approximately space
enterprise jobs with, average salaries of ; and,
Whereas, in addition to the jobs and revenues created by space enterprise in our community,
we recognize that we host impressive educational facilities, faculties, technical education and
training programs all poised to assume a vigorous proactive role in promoting and addressing
space enterprise needs throughout the state; and,
Now, Therefore, be it Resolved by that:
does hereby support the development of space enterprise consistent with
prudent environmental sensitivity and minimal regulation in order to retain and grow the
prestige, jobs and associated economic benefits of a robust space enterprise community and the
services development of new services provided therefrom; and,
Be it Further Resolved that: shall support and foster the
development of appropriate space enterprise activities in our community, including: space
education and job training, flight infrastructure development and preservation, academic research
and development, applied research, space business development, economic diversification, space
vehicle launch activity and space- related tourism; and,
