RESOLUTION NO. 93-11
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING FEDERAL
LEGISLATION TO ABOLISH UNFUNDED FEDERAL
MANDATES ON LOCAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS AND
ENSURING THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PAYS
COSTS INCURRED BY THOSE GOVERNMENTS IN
COMPLYING WITH FEDERAL STATUTES AND
REGULATIONS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE
AS FOLLOWS:
WHEREAS, unfunded Federal mandates on State and local governments have become
increasingly extensive in recent years; and
WHEREAS, such mandates have, in many instances, added to growing deficits in State
and local budgets and have resulted in the need for State and local governments to increase
revenue or limit services; and
WHEREAS, such excessive fiscal burdens on State and local governments have
undermined the ability of State and local governments to achieve their responsibilities under law;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA,
CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY FIND AND DETERMINE:
SECTION 1: Support Federal legislation which would abolish the practice of imposing
unfunded Federal mandates on local and State governments and ensure that the Federal
government pays costs incurred by those governments in complying with Federal statutes and
regulations.
SECTION 2: Forward this resolution to all interested parties.
SECTION 3: Direct the City Clerk to certify to the adoption of this resolution.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 1 st day of March, 1993.
