I have examined your application for a grant under Section 702 of the Housing Act of 1965, as amended, (42 U.S .C . 3102) whereby assistance is requested to develop and construct adequate basic water and sewer facilities . I have also reviewed all pertinent Federal , State, and local laws , including local charter provisions , and particularly Section 400 of the City Charter of the City of Huntington Beach; Government Code Sections 53701, 38900, 40404 , and 4306.9 , and Article 11; Sections 11 and 19 of the California Constitution; and Streets and Highways Code Section 10102 , which establish the City of Huntington Beach as a public body, empower it to receive and expend Federal, State , and local funds , and empower it to contract with the United States of America for the purpose of receiving a grant under Section 702 of the Housing Act of 1965 , as amended . I have made appropriate inquiry and am satisfied that there is not pending or threatened litigation in either State or Federal Courts which (a) challenges your authority to con- struct the project as set forth in the application, or (b) might jeopardize the successful completion and operation of such project , or (c) challenges your authority to contract with the Federal Government for the purpose of receiving a grant under 42 U.S .C . 3102 .
