A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, REQUESTING CONSTRUCTION OF
A FULL INTERCHANGE CONNECTING CAMINO LAS RAMBLAS
AND THE SAN DIEGO FREEWAY AND URGING COMPLETION
COINCIDENTAL WITH WIDENING OF SAN DIEGO FREEWAY
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of San Juan Capistrano did, on July 13,
1964, by its Resolution No. 64-7_13-1, request that the Division of Highways give
favorable consideration to the construction of a full interchange connecting
Camino Las Ramblas and the San Diego Freeway; and
WHEREAS, with the population development in the southern portion of the City
of San Juan Capistrano, together with the development of County areas adjacent
thereto, it becomes increasingly important to the City that the Camino Las Ramblas
interchange be given highest priority; and
WHEREAS, since our former resolution it has developed that Camino Las Ramblas
has become a major traffic link between the City proper and the developments of
the southern section of the City forming an important part of the master plan of
arterial highways of the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the location of a full interchange at
the confluence of the San Diego Freeway and Camino Las Ramblas would be of great
economic value to the City of San Juan Capistrano in providing the only access
within the City to community commercial centers serving the entire southery
section of the City; and
WHEREAS, it would be to the financial benefit of the State of California and
the City of San Juan Capistrano that the development of the Camino Las Ramblas
interchange be accomplished concurrently with the proposed widening of the San
Diego Freeway in this area; and
WHEREAS, the complete development of said Camino Las Ramblas interchange meets
with the full approval of the Orange County Road Commissioner as being best suited
to care for the basic traffic needs in the San Juan Capistrano - San Clemente -
Capistrano Beach area; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of San Juan Capistrano desires to reiter-
ate and amplify its position in favor of development of the Camino Las Ramblas
interchange.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of San Juan
Capistrano that it urge, and it does hereby emphatically and strongly urge the
District Engineer and the Assistant District Engineer of the California Division
of Highways to program to early completion the full interchange at the confluence

134
Juan Capistrano from the standpoint of proper location of ingress and egress points
within the City, from the standpoint of the Major Arterial Highway Plan of the City
and from the standpoint of economic benefit to the City and contiguous areas, that
said Camino Las Ramblas interchange be carried through to early completion.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that it will be in the best interest of the Cali-
fornia Division of Highways and the City that said Camino Las Ramblas interchange
