A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SEAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA, URGING GOVERNOR
EDMUNO G. BROWN, JR. TO SIGN SB 512.
WHEREAS, Orange County leaders in government, business and industry have
been actively seeking a new district of the California Department
of Transportation for Orange County since late 1978; and
WHEREAS, the need for this CalTrans District and the need for increased
road and highway expenditures in Orange County have been clearly
documented; and
WHEREAS, the California Legislature, urged by a united effort of Orange
County's nine-member legislative delegation, agreed on August 30
to create CalTrans District 12 and to move California's second most
populous county out of the Los Angeles' transportation shadow; and
WHEREAS, the success of SB 512, Senator John Briggs' bill creating an Orange
County CalTrans District, was the result of an unprecedented part-
nership of Orange County government and business interests; and
WHEREAS, the last step in the process creating this new district is the
governor's signature on SB 512, an action which will make CalTrans
Oistrict 12 a reality,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Seal Beach City Council urges Governor
Edmund G. Brown, Jr. to sign SB 512; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that by this action this city council formally joins
the Orange County Board of Supervisors in inviting Governor Brown to come
to Orange County to sign this landmark bill in an appropriate ceremony at
the Orange County Hall of Administration which will include the business,
community, and government officials who worked to make SB 512 a reality; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this city council urges other city councils,
chamber of commerce, government agencies, and citizens who are concerned with
improved roads and highways in Orange County to write Governor Brown to encourage
him to sign SB 512.
