A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS
ENDORSING PROPOSITION 1 ON THE JUNE 4, 1974 BALLOT.
WHEREAS, nearly 1,000,000 people had to be turned away from parks and
beaches in California last year, because of overwhelming demands being made
on outdoor recreation; and
WHEREAS, almost 90% of the visitors to California's parks and beaches
are residents of this State; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 on the June 4th statewide ballot will provide
$250 Million for new facilities and the development of existing resources,
for historical features of the State Park System and for fish and wildlife
conservation; and
WHEREAS, $90 Million of this will be granted directly to all California
counties for the use of local government, which throughout the State is in
dire need of park funds, while the demand for local parks has increased in
urgency because of the energy crisis; and
WHEREAS, these local parks will be created and developed at no cost
to the property taxpayer; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 1 is a bond issue that will be repaid by more
than one generation of park users; and
WHEREAS, the need for immediate action is accentuated by threatened
loss of potential parkland to development, and the increasing cost of
land.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Cypress hereby endorses Proposition 1, for the preservation of our State's
natural environment in the face of the current park crisis, and calls on
all Californians to cast a resounding YES vote for Proposition 1 on June 4th.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Cypress at a
