A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS
SUPPORTING THE PASSAGE OF ASSEMBLY BILL 1868
WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is located in the South Coast Air
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and concerned about the quality
of our air; and
WHEREAS, the SCAQMD is charged with the responsibility for solving
what is generally acknowledged to be a very severe air polution problem
that will require a great effort before all ambient air quality standards
are attained throughout the regions of the District; and
WHEREAS, the SCR-32 (Montoya) study report in 1980 recommended
that the SCAQMD and Bay Area AQMD each be given permanent seats on
the Air Resources Board; and
WHEREAS, the SCAQMD under current law has to share an ARB seat
on a rotating basis; and
WHEREAS, the Air Resources Board has stated that since the SCAQMD
is the largest, most complex, multi-county district in the State with
a correspondingly larger air polution problem than any other district
in California, it is appropriate that the SCAQMD have a permanent
ARB seat; and
WHEREAS, to provide for a permanent seat on the ARB, the SCAQMD
requested Assembly Member Charles M. Calderon to introduce Assembly
Bill 1868;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Redlands does hereby support and urge the passage of AB-1868 as a
step to strengthen the air quality management program for the citizens
of this area.
ADOPTED, SIGNED AND APPROVED this 4th day of June, 1985.

SUBJECT: Support of Assembly Bill 1868 (Calderon)
As your representative to the South Coast Air Quality Management
District Board and Chairman of its Intergovernmental Affairs
Committee, I am requesting that you adopt a resolution in support
of District-sponsored Assembly Bill 1868 (Calderon) . This bill
provides a permanent seat on the State Air Resources Board for
a locally elected official from our District . Current law causes
this District to rotate off the State Board every third year.
Because of the severity of the smog and complex nature of our
problems , we should have full-time representation.
For your convenience, I have attached a draft support resolution
for your consideration. Please send your adopted resolution to
Assemblyman Charles Calderon, The State Assembly, Stat^ Capitol ,
Sacramento , CA 95814 .
If you have further questions , please contact the District ' s
legislative representative Gene Fisher at (818) 572-6409 .
