SECTION I
The said City Council hereby finds that the immediate
preservation of the public health and safety requires this
ordinance to be passed as an urgency measure and as such shall
take effect immediately upon the passage thereof by the City
Council. The following is a declaration of the facts con-
stituting the urgency.
The City of Vernon is the owner of a retail electrical
distribution system within its boundaries, which system has been
and now is operated by Southern California Edison Company pursuant
to a written agreement. Said agreement expires on December 31,
1961. Attempts to negotiate a further agreement with Southern
California Edison Company have been unsuccessful and by letter
dated December 19, 1961, Southern California Edison Company
informed the Mayor and City Council of the City of Vernon that
all previous offers of said company with respect to the operation
of said electrical system were withdrawn, and that the most
recent offer of the City of Vernon was unacceptable to Southern
California Edison Company. It therefore appears that on, or
shortly after, January 1, 1962, the City of Vernon will receive
possession of said electrical distribution system.
Said electrical distribution system and its orderly
operation are vital to the health and safety of the City of
Vernon, its inhabitants and the places of business therein. It
