Description) Finance: Council Notes: 75-0262 Agenda Item No 2 CITY OF SAN BERNAP'1INO - REQUEST FOP COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT The Youth of our community are generally not well represented in the political system. In order to facilitate the development of our younger generation, to learn about and to take an interest in local government, the creation of a Youth Advisory Commission is very essential. Today, the voting rate of parents with children under the age of 18 is 38% percent. Households with children now account for only 35% percent of all households, down from nearly 60 percent in 1960. Each of our children represents either a potential addition to the productive capacity and enlightened citizenship of our city and nation or, if neglected, a potential addition to the destructive forces of the community. I, therefore, recommend that the commission members be composed of Senior High School Student Body representatives and Junior High School representatives. 75-0260 1 ORDINANCE NO. 2 ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO ADDING CHAPTER 3 2 .25 TO THE SAN BERNARDINO MUNICIPAL CODE TO CREATE A YOUTH ADVISORY COMMISSION, ESTABLISHING THIS COMMISSION WITH 4 OPERATING PROCEDURES IN CONFORMANCE WITH ALL OTHER CITY COMMISSIONS. 5 THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN 6 BERNARDINO DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: 7 SECTION 1.
