A RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, the City of Corpus Christi, the Sparkling City by the
Sea, is now and always has been very concerned about the quality of both
its air and water; and
WHEREAS, Corpus Christi has actively sought sound economic
growth and responsible industries to help make that growth possible; and
WHEREAS, Corpus Christi co- sponsored one of the first City- County
Air Pollution Control Units and has financed and operated such unit to
carry out a positive program of abatement of any pollution which might
exist and to prevent future air pollution; and
WHEREAS, the City of Corpus Christi has actively supported the
efforts of the Texas Air Control Board to improve and maintain the quality
of air throughout Texas; and
WHEREAS, the Texas Air Control Board has provided capable leader-
ship to the entire country through its air pollution control program; and
WHEREAS, such leadership role now places the Texas Air Control
Board in a position where it has under consideration the adoption of
requirements not now in effect uniformly throughout the United States which
are unnecessary in much of Texas and, in particular, Corpus Christi; and
WHEREAS, Corpus Christi has been found to be a non - attainment
area because of sampling techniques and procedures which, although probably
accurate, do not reflect the quality of air in Corpus Christi:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS:
SECTION 1. That the City Council strongly urges the Texas Air
Control Board to:
1. Avoid precipitous action which could cause irreparable
harm to the planned and orderly development of the industrial
base of Corpus Christi and of Texas.
2. Continue to issue permits under the Texas Clean Air
Act for the orderly growth of industries and for their modi-
fication to comply with changes in the availability of energy
and in the market place.

3. Recognize its grave responsibility to the people of
Texas to enable the continuation of their employment and to
assist in the provision of better jobs, while at the same
time exercising responsible concern and regulation over the
quality of the State's air.
SECTION 2. The necessity and urgency for the City Council of the
City of Corpus Christi to urge the Texas Air Control Board to continue its
exercise of responsible concern and regulation over the quality of the
air in the State of Texas without causing irreparable harm to the develop-
ment of the industrial base of Corpus Christi and of Texas creates a public
emergency and an imperative public necessity requiring the suspension of
the Charter rule that no ordinance or resolution shall be passed finally
on the date of its introduction but that such ordinance or resolution
shall be read at three several meetings of the City Council, and the Mayor
having declared such emergency and necessity to exist, and having
requested the suspension of the Charter rule and that this resolution
take effect and be in full force and effect from and after its passage,
IT IS ACCORDINGLY SO RESOLVED, this the Z.30— day of May, 1977.
