help stabilize water supplies in the Bay-Delta, vital but fragile estuary and source of

$1.97 billion, and enactment of the measure will provide for greater reliability to the
water supplies that fuel the California economy and support millions of jobs; and

California prepare for the expected increase of 15 million people by the year 2020
through a variety of clean water, watershed, flood protection, and water supply
improvement programs; and
WHEREAS, if adopted by the voters, Proposition 13 will provide tangible water
benefits for people in nearly every city and county in the state, and better protect our
communities from the devastation of both floods and droughts; and

increased investments in the state's water infrastructure;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of
