<br />(JWF 3/8/06) <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2006- <br /> <br />A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF <br />SANTA ANA FORMALLY ADOPTING THE SANTA ANA <br />CITY MOTTOS AND DIRECTING THE USE OF CITY <br />MOTTOS IN OFFICIAL CITY COMMUNICATIONS. <br /> <br />BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS <br />FOLLOWS: <br /> <br />Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines <br />and declares as follows: <br /> <br />A. Santa Ana has long referred to itself as The Golden City, and since at <br />least 1972, the City has used the phrase "the Golden City" as a motto on <br />the official City Emblem; <br /> <br />B. In 1990, in recognition that the City had joined forces with Santa Ana's <br />educational institutions and chambers of commerce to promote <br />educational opportunities, the city logo was revised to add the phrase <br />"Education First" to the logo; <br /> <br />C. Santa Ana is the historical center of Orange County and the City Council <br />desires to recognize and promote Santa Ana as the original and still <br />"Downtown" for all of Orange County; <br /> <br />D. No one motto can fully communicate all that Santa Ana stands for, and the <br />three foregoing mottos are valuable in conveying the nature and essence <br />of the Santa Ana today and should be used in various representations of, <br />and communications by, the City of Santa Ana. <br /> <br />Section 2. The phrases "The Golden City", "Education First" and "Downtown <br />Santa Ana" are hereby adopted as formal mottos of the City of Santa Ana. The City <br />Manager and the City Attorney are authorized and directed to take all necessary action <br />to protect the City's intellectual property interests in these mottos and, to the extent <br />feasible and where appropriate, cause them to be registered as service marks of the <br />City with the US Patent and Trademark Office. <br /> <br />Section 3. The City Manager is authorized and directed to use any of said <br />mottos in or on City documents, communications, signs, vehicles and equipment alone <br />or in conjunction with the 2006 City Logo adopted by companion Resolution 2006- <br />, as he or she may deem appropriate, unless otherwise directed by the City <br />Councilor as provided in the City Charter or Municipal Code. <br /> <br />50A-11 <br /> <br />Resolution No. 2006- <br />Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />
