NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Santa Ana supports: The licensing of Units 2 and 3 of the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station; The continued development of other alternate energy sources such as solar, geothermal, wind and coal; and The continued commitment to energy conser- vation and proper energy management to maximize utilization of domestic energy sources and reduce waste.
