SANTA CLARITA : State Honors City for Quality of Life
Santa Clarita is one of 10 California cities honored by the state Department of Health Services’ “Healthy Cities” program, which recognizes municipalities that strive to improve the quality of life for residents.
Santa Clarita was praised for strong promotion of seat-belt usage, improvements to the natural environment, participation in air-quality programs and the addition of a recreational park accessible to the handicapped.
Santa Clarita is one of the program’s charter cities, so called because they were the first to participate, city officials said.
