A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF HUNTINGTON BEACH URGING TELEVISION COVER-
AGE OF ORANGE COUNTY NEWS
WHEREAS, the County of Orange has developed during recent
years into the second most populous county in the State of
California, with a population of nearly two million residents ;
and
The residents of Orange County are primarily interested in
all aspects of news which affects their daily lives , including
but not limited to elections , sports, special events , and other
items of local interest which commonly appear in the Orange
County newspapers ; and
The lack of a commercial television facility within Orange
County makes it dependent upon the Los Angeles television sta-
tions for news coverage; and
Orange County deserves the broadest possible television
coverage of all kinds of county-wide and local occurrences , and
the television coverage presently provided is totally inadequate,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Huntington Beach that it urges coverage of Orange County
news , including reporting on elections, sports, special events ,
and other items of local interest, by television stations in
the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk of the City of
Huntington Beach is directed to transmit copies of this resolu-
tion to all commercial television stations in the Los Angeles
area as well as all member cities of the League of California
Cities in Orange County , and the Bard of Supervisors of Orange
County.
