§ 2.78.010. Findings of fact—Declaration of policy.
Latest version.
The board of supervisors finds that the injustices and the inequities resulting from
prejudice, intolerance and discrimination against any individual or group because
of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, or because of any
arbitrary factor such as socio-economic status, marital status or personal handicaps,
promote tension and conflict and constitute an unconscionable menace to the public
welfare; that to eliminate such prejudice and inequity and thereby promote public
health, welfare and security, an instrumentality should be established through which
practices to achieve better human relations can be provided, and private persons and
groups may be officially assisted in promoting good will and better relations among
all people.
