A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA OPPOSING A PROPOSED
EXTENSION OF THE JURISDICTION OF THE
CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION
WHEREAS, the South Coast Regional Commission of the Califor-
nia Coastal Zone Conservation Commission has prepared a second
preliminary draft of a Powers, Funding and Governmental element
proposed for inclusion in the California Coastal Zone Conserva-
tion Plan; and
WHEREAS, said preliminary draft includes within its recom-
mendations, as Proposed Policy Recommendation 26, a proposal
that the State Commission have a limited jurisdiction, including
the power to impose terms and conditions, over various projects,
whether within or without the Coastal Zone, which the Commission
may determine to have an adverse environmental impact upon coas-
tal resources; and
WHEREAS, said proposed Recommendation 26 is substantially
similar to Recommendation XI of the first preliminary draft of
the Powers, Funding and Government element prepared by the South
Coast Regional Commission, to which this council has previously
expressed its opposition, in Resolution No. 74-182, submitted
to the South Coast Regional Commission at its public hearing of
December 16, 1974; and.
WHEREAS, this Council now desires to reaffirm its opposition
to the said proposed recommendation and to again express its
opinion that enforcement of the Coastal Zone Conservation Plan
as to projects lying outside the Coastal Zone is more appropriately
vested in the local agencies having territorial jurisdiction over
such projects, and that the proposed extension of the jurisdiction
of the Commission, if adopted, would unreasonably increase the
· administrative burden of development in river-land areas;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Santa Ana does hereby declare its opposition to the pro-
posed extension of the jurisdiction of the California Coastal
Zone Conservation Commission, as set forth in Proposed Policy
Recommendation 21 of the tentative draft of the Powers, Funding
and Government element of the California Coastal Zone Conserva-
tion Plan, as presently under consideration by the South Coast
Regional Commission.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Santa
