A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA AUTHORIZING DONATION OF
SURPLUS PUBLIC WORKS EQUIPMENT TO SISTER
CITY, SAHUAYO DE MORELOS
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA
AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. In 2022, the City of Santa Ana established a new sister city relationship
with the city of Sahuayo de Morelos, Michoacan, Mexico ("Sahuayo")
to promote and encourage friendship, goodwill and charity and
promote educational, cultural, environmental and business exchanges
between the two municipalities.
B. Sahuayo faces challenges in inspection and maintaining its water and
sewer utility infrastructure, as well as metering customer water
consumption. In addition, their water system lacks the valves
necessary to manage their water supply and isolate sections of the
distribution system to maintain pressure while making needed repairs.
C. The Public Works Agency Water Resources Division possesses
surplus equipment that is no longer utilized due to age, obsolescence
or incompatibility with current standards and/or processes. A full list of
this equipment, including quantifies and estimated value, is included
as an Exhibit accompanying this item. This surplus equipment would
typically be subject to destruction, recycling, or sent to auction.
However, donation of this equipment could significantly improve
Sahuayo's ability to maintain, operate, and enhance its water and
sewer system infrastructure, ensuring cleaner water and better
services for their community.
D. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana believes that authorizing the
donation of this equipment to Sahuayo would serve to promote
friendship, goodwill and charity, as well as providing substantial
enhancement to the infrastructure and maintenance of Sahuayo's
water and sewer systems.
Section 2. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby authorizes the
donation of surplus equipment from the Public Works Agency Water Resources
Division as outlined above. Such donation may include transfer via use of volunteer
intermediaries, on terms as may be acceptable to the City Manager and City Attorney.
Such terms shall include an agreement and release from liability.
