RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LODI
ENDORSING PROPOSITION 43, COMMUNITY PARKLANDS ACT OF 1986
WHEREAS, Proposition 43 authorizes the issue of 100 million in
state bonds to provide for development, rehabilitation, improvement or
restoration of recreation, historic areas, or park facilities. This
money may also be used for acquisition and to repair park
infrastructures. Proposition 43 funds will be distributed according to
a simple formula based on population. Each community will receive
funds and will decide on its own funding priorities.
WHEREAS, California's fine local park system can't keep up with
accelerating population growth. Over the next 20 years, the State's
population is expected to increase by 7.3 million. The demands placed
on our local park systems are overwhelming.
WHEREAS, due to existing local funding problems many city, county
and district park facilities are deteriorating or remain undeveloped
for full public use and many new projects that have been in the
planning stage for years have not been built.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City
of Lodi does hereby urge the support of Proposition 43 as it addresses
the serious shortfall in funding for local park and recreation projects
and will provide a reliable funding source for California's future
recreation needs.
