HUMAN RELATIONS COMMITTEE
150.010 Findings and declaration.
A. The board of directors of the city finds that racial tension
and conflict contribute substantially to the creation of
juvenile delinquency and adult crime; that prejudice,
intolerance and discrimination against any individual or
group because of race, religion, national origin or cultural
background promote tension and conflict, all of which
adversely affect the peace and public welfare.
B. The purpose of this chapter is to eliminate such prejudice,
intolerance, and discrimination and thereby promote the
public health, welfare and security; to create a committee to
achieve better human relations; and to provide assistance to
private persons and groups in promoting good will and
better relations among all people.
