REVIEW AND CONSIDERATION OF THE MAYOR'S NOMINATIONS

FOR APPOINTMENTS TO INTERNAL AD HOC WORKING GROUPS

AND EXTERNAL BOARDS, COMMISSIONS, AND COMMITTEES
The City Council has determined the need for members of the City Council, residents, and community members to serve in an advisory or representative capacity upon internal ad hoc working groups and external boards, commissions, and committees. The various appointees serve as the City Council's designated liaisons to the respective bodies and represent the City's interests in local, regional, State, and Federal matters.

The City Council continuously evaluates the complement of internal ad hoc working groups and external boards, commissions, and committees and determines whether periodic modifications are necessary to meet short-term or temporary goals. The City Council may create, modify, disband, or withdraw from the various bodies as ongoing or future business, legislative, operational, or strategic needs of the City are modified.

Appointment Category Descriptions
City Councilmember Internal Ad Hoc Working Group appointments Internal ad hoc working group appointments are assigned to individual City Councilmembers based upon the City Council's business and advisory needs at various points in time. The individual members are designated by the City Council membership as a whole, to provide evaluation and/or liaison service regarding the assigned subject matter. The appointments are temporary in nature (less than one year) and do not have a regular meeting schedule.

Internal ad hoc working groups are comprised of less than a quorum of the City Council, typically with just one (1) or two (2) members assigned.

City Councilmember External Boards, Commissions, and Committee appointments External board, commissions, and committee appointments are made for individual City Councilmember service on external bodies, which are not governed or controlled by the Cerritos City Council. However, these external bodies often control or administer matters in which the City has a significant ongoing interest. Service upon these external bodies allows the City to participate in legislative decision-making and remain influential regarding matters which impact the community's quality of life. A primary delegate and one (1) or more alternates are appointed from among the City Council membership to each external body.

Certain external bodies are subject to California open meeting laws, may require the appointees to file statements of economic interests (Form 700) or other regular financial disclosures, and may offer a per-meeting or other type of monetary stipend to the respective appointees.

Resident/community member appointment/nomination to external bodies The City Council ratifies, recommends, or appoints Cerritos residents or community members to serve upon various external bodies which are not formed by the City Council, but for which the City is represented. These external bodies govern or provide advisory service on topics in which the City has an interest or is required by agreement to provide a nomination or appointee. The method for selection of individuals is set by the external body, and/or Federal/State law, and this information is presented to the City Council prior to their ratification or approval of an appointee. Certain external bodies are subject to California open meeting laws, may require the appointees to file statements of economic interests (Form 700) or other regular financial disclosures, and may offer a per-meeting or other type of monetary stipend to the respective appointees.

Appointment Process
Generally, after each annual Mayoral Transition, the newly designated Mayor presents their nominations of individual Councilmembers, residents, and community members recommended for service on internal ad hoc working groups, and as delegates and alternates on external boards, commissions, and committees. Final appointments are subject to the majority approval of the City Council. The current "Mayor's Annual Appointments List" is included with this report as Exhibit 1.

Upon approval of the appointments and pursuant to the California Political Reform Act, the Office of the City Clerk prepares and posts a Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) "Agency Report of Public Official Appointments (Form 806)" to the City's website. The Form 806 (Exhibit 2) is updated and reposted each time appointments are made to external positions in which a City Councilmember would receive a monetary stipend. Additionally, the Office of the City Clerk will coordinate the dissemination of contact Information to the respective external bodies and appointees.

Additionally, upon approval of the appointments, the Office of the City Clerk updates the City's comprehensive "City of Cerritos Appointments" brochure (Exhibit 3). This document is posted to the City's website and physical posting locations, and is available In hard copy format in the Office of the City Clerk.
