3 BID PREFERENCE.
4 THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1.
Findings.
The Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino
do find and declare as follows:
A.
Firms and businesses located outside the City of
San Bernardino do not pay the City's Utility
Users Tax, the City-wide Street Lighting and
Street
Sweeping
Assessment,
the
various
landscaping and lighting district assessments,
and the downtown parking district assessments,
all placing them at a significant advantage in
relation to local firms and businesses which must
"
pay such exactions, when bidding to supply City
goods and materials.
In order to equalize the
position of all such bidders it is necessary to
give local firms and businesses a one percent
(1%) credit.
B.
Businesses are leaving the City in record
numbers, including the relocation of the Santa Fe
yards out of State, the closure of Norton Air
Force Base and its attendant employment and the
numerous closures and relocations of small and
medium size businesses from this City, all
eroding the City's property tax base and

significantly decreasing the income to the City
from sales tax, Utility Users Tax, and license
and users fees making it extremely difficult for
the City to provide basic health and safety
services to all of the residents of the City at
a time when crime and vandalism are increasing.
It is necessary to encourage local businesses to
remain in the City to contribute to the
revitalization of San Bernardino, by providing an
increased opportunity for them to provide goods
and materials to the City.
C.
In an attempt to encourage businesses to relocate
to the City to offset and discourage increasing
gang activity, drugs, vandalism, crime, juvenile
delinquency, joblessness and the abandonment of
whole
neighborhoods
by their
owners
and
residents, it is necessary to provide an
incentive to provide goods and materials to the
City.
SECTION 2.
Section 3.04.125 is hereby added to the San
Bernardino Municipal Code to read as follows:
/ / /
/ / /
"3.04.125 Local bidders
Any formal or informal bid submitted by a local
bidder for goods or materials pursuant to this chapter
shall receive a one percent (1%) credit for comparison

the point of sale of the goods or materials shall be
within the City of San Bernardino"
