RESOLUTION NO. 2000-32
RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SAN BERNARDINO EXPRESSING ITS SUPPORT OF PROPOSITION 12, THE
SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS, CLEAN WATER, CLEAN AIR, AND COASTAL
PROTECTION BOND ACT OF 2000.
,
Whereas, California's state, regional, and local parks serve as recreational, social, and
cultural centers for California's communities, providing important venues for youth enrichment
and safety; community identity, protection of natural and historic sites, parkland and open
space; and
Whereas, the state's commitment to state, regional, and local parks has dwindled over
the last decade thereby California and its communities have not kept pace with the needed
funding for rehabilitation, development, and acquisition; and
Whereas, during this same period of diminished funding for state, regional and local
parks, California's citizens have increased their visits to state and local parks; and
Whereas, California is known for its incredible natural resources of open space,
mountains, rivers, coastline, and forests that positively impact the state and local economy; and
Whereas, California is largely an urban state where it is projected the state's population
will continue to grow by 18 million by 2020; thereby placing more pressure on existing
parkland and facilities; and
Whereas, California's economy is dependent upon maintaining a high quality of life
that includes attractive and safe public park and recreation facilities and services; and
Whereas, the last statewide park bond was passed in 1988; and
Whereas, Proposition 12, the Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean Water, Clean Air, and
Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000, provides $2.1 billion for state and local park projects to
preserve our natural heritage and allow urban areas to expand much needed recreation facilities
that serve children, youth, seniors, and families;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mayor and Common Council of the
City of San Bernardino, hereby supports Proposition 12, The Safe Neighborhood Parks, Clean
Water, Clean Air, and Coastal Protection Bond Act of 2000, and encourages California voters
approve this bond act on March 7, 2000.
