ORDINANCE NO. 582

 

AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE ESTABLISHING A FIVE MILE PER HOUR SPEED LIMIT FOR VESSELS ON LAKE ELSINORE

 

 

The Board of Supervisors of the County of Riverside, State of California, do ordain as follows:

 

Section 1:         No person shall operate a vessel, as defined by Harbors and Navigation Code Section 651 (c), at a speed in excess of five miles per hour on the waters of Lake Elsinore lying within the unincorporated area of the County of Riverside.

 

Section 2:         This ordinance is adopted as an urgency ordinance, not less than four-fifths of the members of this Board concurring herein, pursuant to Section 25123 of the Government Code and Section 660 (c) of the Harbors and Navigation Code, for the preservation of the public peace, health and safety. The facts constituting the urgency are that due to the floods of February 1980, the water in Lake Elsinore has risen to a level that just below the surface of the water there exists physical hazards such as buildings, trees, fences, and other structures that present a serious threat to the safety of people in vessels traveling over or near them at speeds in excess of five miles per hour. Pursuant to Section 660 (c) of the Harbors and Navigation Code, this ordinance shall remain in effect for a period of sixty days for the date of its enactment, unless within that period of time the Department of Boating and Waterways shall authorize the extension of the period of time, in which case this ordinance shall remain in effect for the period of time authorized by the Department.
