FROM: Mayor Judith Valles
SUBJECT: EXECUTIVE ORDER 2000-1 .

D~TE: ~priI26,2000
COPIES: File
Various acts of violence and unlawfulness have occurred during and associated with Rave parties;
Hip-Hop parties and similar events, activities and dances, most notably the recent shooting
associated with a so called "Spring Luau" at the Boys Club.
From the recurring frequency of such acts of violence and unlawfulness, it appears that an integral
component of Rave parties, Hip-Hop parties and similar events, activities and dances is the creation
of a hazardous condition which threatens the participants, spectators, staff, facility, equipment or
building.
The Charter of the City of San Bernardino (Article IV, Sec. 50) designates the Mayor as the Chief
Executive Officer of the City having general supervision over all departments and public institutions
of the City and the Mayor "shall take all proper measures for the preservation of public order."
In my capacity as Mayor of this City and by this Executive Order, I hereby:
(1) Direct all Department Heads to refuse to approve or authorize any requests
or applications for any Rave parties, Hip-Hop parties or similar events,
activities and dances at all City owned parks and all other City owned,
operated and/or supervised facilities.
(2) Direct all Department Heads to immediately terminate any agreements and
cancel any events which have been scheduled for any City owned parks and
all other City owned, operated and/or supervised facilities which are Rave
