RESOLUTION NO. D 5 4 7 9
A RESOLUTION authorizing the execution of an Interlocal Coopera-
tive Agreement For The Financing And Operation Of The
County -Wide Coalition For The War On Drugs with
Yakima County and Yakima School District No. 7.
WHEREAS, the Legislature of the State of Washington, in
connection with the passage of Substitute House Bill No. 1445, has
this year found the illegal use, sale and manufacture of drugs and
other drug-related activities to be a state-wide problem; and
WHEREAS, innocent persons, especially children, who come into
contact with illegal drug-related activity within this city and
their own neighborhoods are seriously and adversely affected; and
WHEREAS, illegal drug-related activities have become so
prevelant in this city so as to result in syringes and usable
cigarette lighters being disposed of in public and private places
where children have free access thereto from which there is
created a substantial and unreasonable risk of serious disease or
injury to children in particular; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has been made acutely aware by
citizens and citizen groups of this city as to the increased,
widespread illegal drug-related activities occurring throughout
this city; and
WHEREAS, a County -wide cooperative approach to the menace of
illicit drugs is more effective than the efforts of any single
entity, now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF YAKIMA:
The City Manager and the City Clerk of the City of Yakima are
hereby authorized and directed to execute an Interlocal Coopera-
tive Agreement For The Financing And Operation Of The County -Wide

attached hereto and incorporated in this resolution as if it were
