A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS
INDICATING ITS INTENT TO IMPLEMENT PRIOR TO DECEMBER 31
1982 HEREIN DEFINED "REASONABLY AVAILABLE CONTROL MEASURES"
FROM THE SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 172(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act, as amended,
the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) and the South Coast
Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) have prepared an Air Quality Management
Plan (AQMP) for the South Coast Air Basin with the assistance of the counties
of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and the City of Los Angeles,
the San Bernardino Associated Governments and the State of California Air
Resources Board (ARB). and
WHEREAS, the Clean Air Act of 1977 allows for an extension in the deadlines
for attaining national air quality standards from 1982 to 1987 if all "reasonably
available control measures' (RACMS) are implemented before December 31, 1982, and
WHEREAS, the following six AQMP tactics have been specifically identified
as "reasonably available control measures' which require some degree of scheduled
implementation by cities and counties in the South Coast Air Basin.
- Employee Ridesharing Program
- Traffic Signal Synchronization
- Increased Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
- Energy Conservation Street Lighting
- Modified Work Schedules
- Carpool Preferential Parking, and
WHEREAS, the AQMP provides that, if any of these six measures is found
to be inappropriate or unacceptable in a jurisdiction, then a commitment to
implement an approved equivalent control measure may be substituted for imple-
mentation of any reasonably available control measure. and
WHEREAS the City of Cypress employs so few personnel that the Employee
Ridesharing Program is not practical to implement; and
WHEREAS, the equivalent control measure selected for implementation is the
Electric Vehicle Demonstration Program
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that it is the intent of the City of Cypress:
1 To implement the pre -1982 reasonably available control measures as
described in Attachments 161-5 or equivalent substitute measures (Attachment #6),
as set forth in the South Coast AQMP as approved by SCAG, the SCAQMD and the
Air Resources Board
2 To seek adequate funding from Federal, State and local sources and to
put into effect by the City of Cypress the schedule of implementation (Attachments
#1-6) Funding from local sources will be contingent upon the feasibility of
providing such funds subject to budgetary constraints
