WHEREAS, the cities in the Pomona/Ontario Valley have had strong economic and social ties from their formation and incorporation; and WHEREAS, these ties have not been restricted by the County boundary which separates Los Angeles County cities from San Bernardino County cities within the Pomona/Ontario Valley; and WHEREAS, it is most beneficial for cities with strong ties to have common State and Federal elective office districts notwithstanding county boundaries; and WHEREAS, it is even more important that individual cities are not divided into multiple State and elective office districts to the disadvantage of the local city electorate. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Rancho Cucamonga urges the State Legislature not to divide a city into multiple State or Federal elective districts when there is a reasonable and logical method of maintaining political unity; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the State Legislature give stronger consideration to the economic and social ties of a region in establishing said Federal and State elective districts than to county boundaries. NOT APPROVED.
