Part of the Code of Ordinances of Commerce, CA.
The text
The city council finds that, at times, the city resident activity cards have been obtained based on fraudulent representations to the city's parks and recreation department staff. The resident activity cards are intended to benefit the city's residents and provide access to a number of programs that are paid for, in whole or in part, by the city. The use of fraud by individuals that are not qualified to obtain the resident activity cards prevents other qualified individuals from participating in certain city programs and undermines the purpose of the resident activity card program. The city council finds that it is in the best interests of the public peace, health, safety, or general welfare of the city, as well as in fairness to its citizens, that the city specifically identify the qualifications for the issuance of the resident activity cards and impose penalties on those persons that are found to have fraudulently obtained a resident activity card or who have assisted another person in fraudulently obtaining a resident activity card.
