A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING RATI-
FICATION OF THE PERIPHERAL CANAL REFERENDUM.
WHEREAS, the increasing possibility of serious water
shortages within the next decade is a source of continuing con-
cern to all residents and businesses in the City of El Segundo
and Southern California; and
WHEREAS, the Peripheral Canal would assure a stabilized
quality of water not now enjoyed by State Water Project Contractors
and permit Southern California water utilities to commit funds
to waste water reclamation, thereby reducing both long term
demands for water and providing insurance against the effects
of drought; and
WHEREAS, the City of El Segundo and attendant municipal
entities and representatives are extremely concerned over the
failure to start the long - delayed project; and
WHEREAS, the Supreme Court has ruled that by 1985,
Southern California's supply of water from the Colorado River
will be cut in half; and
WHEREAS, the timely development of the Peripheral Canal
Project is necessary to ensure the future orderly growth and
development of the economic base of business and industry in
the City of El Segundo and Southern California, and once agreement
is reached, it will take many _years to complete the work necessary
to open such a canal;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council
of the City of E1 Segundo does support the Peripheral Canal
Project and does urge all voters to also support this project
by approving the Peripheral Canal Referendum.
