9 THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DO
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
10
SECTION 1. Findings.
11
The Mayor and Common Council hereby find that, in seeking to
12
annex territories known generally as the Highland area, Arrowhead
13
Suburban Farms, and various islands of property within the
14
boundaries of the City of San Bernardino which have not previously
15
been included within the city limits of the City of San
16
Bernardino, existing county ordinances are in many cases less
17
strict on the keeping of animals within unincorporated areas of
18
the County than are existing City ordinances within the City. The
19
City has no desire to impose greater restrictions on the areas to
20
be annexed between November 1, 1984 and August 1, 1985, than
21
already exist, and are satisfied that the county ordinances and
22
[I state laws in effect in those territories are sufficient to meet
I at least minimal health and safety requirements for the areas
I proposed to be annexed, especially in view of the large amounts of
I relatively undeveloped lands. One exception is that the keeping
Ilof hogs, sows, gilts and boars within the City limits is still
I objectionable, and that the present provisions of the San
;1 Bernardino ""nlcipal Code e"iabll"hed in 'eciion 6.08.050 "ho"'d

be enforced even in the territory proposed to be annexed after a
2
two-year moritorium.
SECTION 2. The provisions of Title Six of the San Bernardino
3
4 Municipal Code shall not apply to any property annexed to the City
5 of San Bernardino between November 1, 1984 and August 1, 1985,
6 with the following exceptions: Section 6.08.050, which shall not
7
apply for two years after the effective date of any such
I
lannexation; Sections 6.24.020 through 6.24.180, inclusive, and
IChapters 6.04, 6.20, 6.28, 6.32, 6.34 and 6.38. All excepted
I
I sections and chapters, other than Section 6.08.050, shall be
I
I permanently inapplicable within any property which may be annexed
between November 1, 1984 and August 1, 1985, except as otherwise
8
9
10
II
12
13
specified herein, and shall not be enforced within any such area
I by personnel of the Animal Control Department, or by any other
City employee. The City shall, however, prior to the effective
14
15
16
date of any such annexation, adopt an ordinance covering such
17
property imposing restrictions on the keeping of animals identical
18
with those now in effect under ordinances of the County of San
19
Bernardino.
20
SECTION 3.
Any provision of Title Nineteen relating to
21
establishes controls or limitations on the keeping of
22
animals shall not apply to any area annexed to the City of San
23
Bernardino between November 1, 1984 and August 1, 1985.
24
SECTION 4. Exemptions created hereunder from the existing
25
provisions of the San Bernardino Municipal Code will cease to
26
exist as to any property or use which has been abandoned for a
27
period in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days after the
,
I!
Ii annexation of such property to the City of San Bernardino.

SECTION 5. Urgency. This Ordinance is adopted as an urgency
2 ordinance and is effective immediately upon its adoption. The
3 facts determined by the Mayor and Common Council to necessitate
4 immediate adoption are that misunderstanding exists concerning
5 restrictions on keeping of animals within the city limits of the
6 City of San Bernardino as opposed to those less restrictive
7 provisions now prevailing within the unincorporated areas of the
8 County of San Bernardino. The Mayor and Common Council have no
9 intention of imposing more strict regulations upon the keeping of
10 animals other than hogs, sows, gilts and boars, than presently
11 exist in the unincorporated areas of the County of San Bernardino.
12 The legislative body of the City of San Bernardino desires at this
13 time to assure the public that no unreasonable restrictions will
14 be imposed upon the keeping of animals in such territory proposed
15 to be annexed. Ballot arguments must be submitted within the next
16 few days, and accurate information should be made available for
17 the preparation of ballot arguments. The Mayor and Common Council
18 therefore determine that this ordinance is adopted as an urgency
19 measure for the safety and welfare of the people of the City of
20 San Bernardino,
21 I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing ordinance was duly
22 adopted by the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San
23
Bernardino at a
regular
meeting thereof, held
24
20th
day of
August
, 1984, by the following
