THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO EXPAND ANY STUDY THEY MAY
UNDERTAKE, TO INCLUDE THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE
DECENTRALIZATION COMMITTEE, AND REQUESTING THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS TO ADVISE THE CITY COUNCIL OF ITS PRESENT
PLANS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS
FOLLOWS:
THAT WHEREAS, this City has since 1964 cooperated actively with the
Board of Supervisors in attempting to assist it in the location of a new
Municipal Court Site for the Orange County Harbor Judicial District; and
WHEREAS, because of the defeat suffered by the City of Newport Beach
in the recent bond election, an unnecessary delay will follow in the develop-
ment of a court site, selected by the Board of Supervisors within the City
of Newport Beach; and
WHEREAS, this unnecessary delay may result in the reopening of studies
for the selection of a court site within the Orange County Harbor Judicial
District, other than the site originally selected by the Board of Supervisors;
and
WHEREAS, these unnecessary delays in selecting a site and the construc-
tion of facilities will further increase the problems apparent in an already
over -crowded court; and
WHEREAS, the City of Costa Mesa is not fully informed as to the inten-
tions or the present plans of the Board of Supervisors as they affect the
Court Site;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED as follows:
THAT any reconsideration of the court site for the Municipal Court of
the Orange County Harbor Judicial District be undertaken with the Decentrali-
zation Committee's recommendations.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any consideration of another court site,
also include decentralized facilities for other County offices such as the
Probation Department, Welfare Department, Building Department, Libraries,
and other County agencies serving the people of the Harbor Area.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that such further studies, if they are to be
undertaken, be commenced immediately and conducted as speedily as reasonably
possible, so that this badly needed facility can be constructed and put into
operation at the earliest possible date.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City of Costa Mesa be advised of the
plans and intentions of the Board of Supervisors at an early date.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that a copy of this Resolution be forwarded to
each member of the Board of Supervisors and to whomever the Council may direct.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 1st day of November, 1971.
