CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
City of Anaheim
OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK
DATE: JANUARY 14, 2025
FROM: OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPOINTMENTS/REAPPOINTMENTS TO CITY
BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
ATTACHMENT (Y/N): YES ITEM # 13
GOVERNMENT CODE § 84308 APPLIES: NO
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council, make appointments/re-appointments to certain city Boards and Commissions with terms that expired December 31, 2024. All scheduled vacancies will be for a term of four years, consistent with the nominating official, ending December 31, 2028.
DISCUSSION:
City boards and commissions (“commissions”) perform a valuable service to the City by providing a means by which the City Council can obtain the advice, opinions, and recommendations of City residents and other members of the community. Resolution No. 2017-049 and Ordinance No. 6407 were adopted by the City Council which effectively changed, with some exceptions as noted, the method in which board and commission members were appointed in order to make city commissions reflective of the city’s by-district election system, changing the terms of membership to correspond to the appointing city council member, and revised the composition of certain commissions to achieve the by-district appointment method. At the November 5, 2024 General Municipal Election, the Council Members representing Districts 1, 4, and 5 were elected, thereby requiring appointments to occur with the new election cycle.
The following boards/commissions are scheduled for direct appointment by District Council Members 1, 4, and 5, which will include the affirmative majority vote of the Council ratifying each district appointment: i) Budget, Investment & Technology Commission, ii) Community Services Board, iii) Cultural and Heritage Commission, iv) Housing and Community Development Commission, v) Parks and Recreation Commission, vi) Planning Commission, vii) Public Utilities Board, viii) Senior Citizen Commission; and ix) Sister City Commission.
Pursuant to Sections 54972 and 54974 of the Government Code, the Local Appointments List was posted on the City’s website.
