Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council

Motion Re: Assembly Bill 2237 – Homeland Security, State of California Ports and Harbors. The following Motion for the NWSPNC to support the passage of this bill was passed unanimously.

WHEREAS, the California State Legislature is considering Assembly Bill 2237, introduced by Assembly Member Betty Karnette, to evaluate the policies, projects and funding at California ports and harbors on an annual basis; and
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 2237 will require an annual report to the Joint Legislative Budget Committee on the expenditures of federal homeland security and bioterrorism funds. This report will identify how the previous year’s expenditures and coordinated activities at the state and local levels met the overall strategic goals for the state; and
WHEREAS, as proposed, AB 2237 will provide information to identify sources of funding and areas in greater need of funding by directing the California Office of Homeland Security to annually assess what policies, projects and funding are necessary to protect our ports from terrorist attack, and coordination programs to focus on future fiscal years can be made.
NOW THEREFORE it is resolved that the Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council supports the passage of Assembly Bill 2237 by the California Legislature and adoption by the Governor. (Adopted May 8, 2006)
