CC RESOLUTION 2133RESOLUTION NO. 2133
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, ENDORSING
THE LOCATION OF A PROPOSED STATE COLLEGE
IN THE SOUTH BAY AREA.
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of El Segundo, Cali-
fornia, recognize the need and share the desire for a State College within
their populous and fast - growing South Bay area, and
WHEREAS, the need is even greater than when such a college
first received official approval; and
WHEREAS, the rapid residential, commercial and industrial
growth of the area is gradually and inexorably removing from availability
such sites as would be adequate and suitable; and
WHEREAS, members of the City Council, in open meeting,
have expressed their concern; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of El Segundo feel
strongly that the State College Trustees should give serious considera-
tion to a modified, hi -rise structure (s). This consideration would result
in the teeming urban development and highest and best use of any available
land in said South Bay area;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council
of the City of El Segundo, California, requests the Trustees of the California
State Colleges to select a college site within the boundaries of the area
generally known as the South Bay, which has been defined as that area of
Los Angeles County bounded on the north by Slauson Avenue, on the east
by the Harbor Freeway, and on the south and west by the Pacific Ocean; and
that such selection be made with all speed possible, in order to gain any
economic advantage possible in the face of rising land costs; but most im-
p ortant, and considering that the area defined contains the largest number
of high school graduates of any area not now served by a State College, to
hasten that day when a State College for the South Bay shall become a
reality, an institution providing educational opportunity for thousands of
deserving young men and women,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Council of the
City of El Segundo, California, is hereby authorized to work coopera-
tively with the Board of Trustees in the site selection process regard-
ing the location of said proposed South Bay State College.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 26th day of July,
1965.
