%~ttEREAS, the voters of the City of Sa~ ta ~%na at a special
m~a~icipal election held April ?, 1946, called for the purpose of
submittinA to said voters certai~ propos itions to incur bonded in-
debtedness, voted in favor of incurring such indebtedness in that
more than tvx)-thirds of all voters voti~ng at said electio~n voted in
favor of fi~e adoption of each of the bond propositions submitted to
them, and
~f~EREAS, i~ond P~ position i~o. 4, s~ submitted, was in words
and figures as follows:
"BOND P~OPOSiTION ~'i'O. 4: Shall the City of Santa Ana incur
a bonded indebtedness in the principal su~ of ',~'~12~,000.00
for the purpose of k~e acquisition ar~ construction by said
City of a certain municipal im~orovement, to-wit: ~¥orks ~nd
structures for the control of storm and flood waters of
Santiago Creek in the City of Saa ta Aha, said works and
structures to consist of retaini~ walls and the paving of
the channel of a portion of said creek?",
and as a res~lt of said vote on said proposition the bonds autaorized
by said Bond Proposition No. 4 were duly issued and sold, and the City
now holds the proceeds resulting there~i'rom, and no part of said
!?125,000.00 has been expended for the purposes set forth in said
proposition, an d
%:~HEREAS, ce~:tain structures and works have so controlled the
storm and flood waters entering Santiago Creek that danger from flood-
ing or creek overflow has ceased to exist, and
'~{E?d~AS, the work authorized by ssi d Bond Proposition i~'o. 4
could now onl.5~ serve to beautify and improve said creek channel within
the City and could and would be of little benefit in retaining flood
waters if circumstances produced 'tho same, snd such beautification
and inprover~ent of said Santia ~o Creek could and would benefit only
those few properties fronting on or adjacent to said Creek;
N0~V, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, DETEP2~[INED, AND ORDERED:
Section 1. That rue expenditure of the money raised by the
sale of bonds authorized by the voters of the Gity of Santa ~baa at
the special bond election held April 9, 1946, under said "BOND
PROPOSITIO~I l,[0. 4" for the purpose of the acquisition and eonstr~.¢-
tion of wo~s and str~ctures for the control of storm and flood
waters of Santiago greek in the i~it? of S~ta Aha, said works and
str~etures consisting of retaining walls and t~e paving of the channel
of a portion of said Creek, the purpose for which said bonds were
voted, is now impractical and unwise, and said funds should not be
expended for said proposal.
Section 2. 1~nat said funds being the proceeds from the sale
of bonds voted and approved as aforesaid, may not be used for any
beneficial purpose, or for any other purpose than that set forth in
said bond proposition, unless and until the same has been submitted
to and approved by the voters of said City~ to so obtain the consent
of the electors to ti~e use of said money for a necessary municipal
purpose tha[~ will benefit all of the people of said City.
