AFTER JUNE, 1981
WHEREAS, the South Central Coast Commission, as
presently constituted, deals with the mandates of the
Coastal Preservation Act for San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara
and Ventura Counties; and
WHEREAS, being a local commission, the needs, resource
capacities and constraints of the area are well known and
the needs of the public of the State of California to
Access, Housing, etc. , under the Coastal Act are readily
addressed; and
WHEREAS, State Commission members may reside 1100 miles
apart; and
WHEREAS, the State Commission may perceive needs for
coastal cities which are not the real needs considering the
diversity of city types in thecoastalzone; and
WHEREAS, local and visitor needs are well known to
' local people; and
WHEREAS, since service on the State Commission requires
a excessive amount of one's time, opportunities for service
on this Commission is restricted to those who have the time
to serve, not necessarily to those who should or are the
' best qualified to serve; and
WHEREAS , continuation of the State Coastal Commission
requires the expenditure of a great deal of travel time in
order to attend remote State Commission hearings; and
WHEREAS, this remoteness effectively precludes attendance
' by many interested parties at State Commission hearings.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Atascadero
supports the termination of the State Commission and the
continuance of the Regional Commissions.
IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Clerk send a copy
of this resolution to the cities' representatives of the
