CC - 1969 - 35 - Competitive Pricing of County Consumer Services• w
CITY OF ROSEMEAD
RESOLUTION NO. 69-35
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ROSEMEAD CONCERNING THE COMPETITIVE PRICING
OF COUNTY CONSUMER SERVICES.
WHEREAS, the County of Los Angeles currently furnishes
various consumer services through agencies of the County, which
services are also offered to the consumer public by various
pr4,vate enterprises within the County; and
WHEREAS, in order for a healthy, private enterprise
system to operate and flourish, it is necessary that such
consumer services not be offered to the public at a price
level below that which can be offered by efficiently managed
competing private enterprise business establishments; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Rosemead
wishes to express its concern with the unfairness of a County
pricing policy for consumer services furnished by the County
in competition with private enterprise, where that pricing
system is subsidized by those same competing private enterprises,
and wishes to go on record as being opposed to such a system.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of
the City of Rosemead as follows:
1. That the County of Los Angeles be requested to
insure that in pricing its furnishing of consumer services to
users of such services, which services are furnished in direct
competition with private enterprise within the County, that the
price at which such services are made available to the public is
in no case less that that which can be realistically offered by
such competing private enterprises.
2. That copies of this resolution be directed to all
members of the Board of Supervisors of the County of Los Angeles,
California.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 24th day of June, 1969.
