CALIFORNIA, REQUESTING THE COUNTY OF ORANGE TO EXPEDITE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONAL MOTOR PARKS, ON AN EMERGENCY BASIS
IF NEED BE.
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Costa Mesa adopted
Ordinance No. 68-10, on March 4, 1968, prohibiting the operation of
licensed and unlicensed motor driven cycles on unimproved private property,
parkways, sidewalks, park lands and beaches; and
WHEREAS, the County of Orange adopted similar legislation under
Ordinance No. 2410, dated July 28, 1970; and
WHEREAS, the City of Costa Mesa is negotiating for property to create
an interim mini -bike park for the younger local residents and is also
encouraging private enterprise in meeting all of the recreational aspects
of this new pastime; and
WHEREAS, our governments are mutually concerned with the biologi-
cally and geologically fragile land resources left to us for recreation
and environmental enjoyment; and
WHEREAS, it appears that the public desires to increase the safety
aspects of this recreation and diminish the undesirable ecological
effects; and
WHEREAS, the major recreational interests for this sport are regional
in nature, particularly the larger trail cycles;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that this City does hereby request
the Orange County Board of Supervisors to expedite the development of
regional motor parks at Los Coyotes, Santa Ana River, Ortega, or other
suitable park areas, on an emergency basis if need be.
