A RESOLUTION OF THE AZUSA CITY COUNCIL OBJECTING
TO THE PROPOSED EXPANSION AND COMMERCIALIZATION
OF BONELLI PARK AND URGING THE LOS ANGELES
COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO RETAIN THIS
PRECIOUS ISLAND OF OPEN SPACE
WHEREAS, the Bonelli Regional Park is located in the City of
San Dimas, California, and has been for the past decades a refuge
to residents in the Eastern San Gabriel Valley from the
congestion of the City; and
WHEREAS, Bonelli Park with its lake and open spaces provides
active and passive recreational opportunities for hundreds of
thousands of persons annually; and
WHEREAS, in the recent past there has been the expansion of
commercial recreational facilities in portions of Bonelli Park
with a resulting negative impact on the greater San Dimas
community in the form of traffic congestion, noise, and other
objectionable activities; and
WHEREAS, property which is developed for open space purposes
is a rare and precious commodity and becoming even more rare in
Southern California, especially with the anticipated increased
residential development in the Eastern San Gabriel Valley;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Azusa determines and declares as follows:
That this City Council does go on record as supporting the
expressions of concern which have been expressed by members of
this community objecting to the commercialization and expansion
of the active recreational aspects of Bonelli Park as
proposed. The Azusa City Council further urges the Los Angeles
County Board of Supervisors to retain this open space.
PASSED AND APPROVED this 20th day of April, 1987.
