Foreward
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
On September 20, 1976, the Huntington Beach City Council adopted Resolution No. 4330, adopting a Council Manual that provided resource information on a number of processes, duties and responsibilities related to local government service. The most significant update to the Council Manual occurred in 1989. In recent years, attempts to update the Council Manual remained unfinished, but in late 2018, the project became a priority.

In an effort to enhance the experience of our elected officials and provide a wealth of solid, relevant, easily accessible information, staff is pleased to present the newly revised Council Manual. The Council Manual begins with items germane to Huntington Beach, and then incorporates a variety of webpage links to public domain offerings by the Institute for Local Government ( ILG). ILG is a nonprofit research and education affiliate of the League of California Cities and the California State Association of Counties, whose mission is to promote good government at the local level throughout California. In addition to the linked publications provided in the Council Manual, videos covering basic Government 101 topics are accessible at www. ca- ilg. org/ post/ local- government- basics- videos.

By resolution, the City Council is bound by the rules and processes established hereto. Any information contained in the Council Manual that conflicts with Federal, State or Huntington Beach law is superseded by the conflicting law.

The Council Manual is a living document, updated as necessary to ensure its contents remain current and relevant. Council may request to revise the Council Manual at any time, and staff will present such requests in the form of a Resolution for Council approval.

The Council Manual will be loaded on City-issued iPadsor personal devices used by Council to review agenda-related material. Staff will make efforts to keep the Council Manual a convenient size, but realizes that Councilmembers will define its depth and breadth. Any electronic updates made by staff to City-issued iPadsor personal devices used by Council to review agenda-related material will incorporate any and all annual or Council- directed revisions made to the Council Manual.

It is our hope that the newly revised Council Manual will assist Council to successfully conduct business in a prescribed, qualified and ethical manner while representing the citizens of Huntington Beach.

Fred Wilson, City Manager Robin Estanislau, CMC, City Clerk

Council Meetings
All meetings are subject to the Brown Act)
Regular Council Meetings. Regular meetings of the City Council/ Public Financing Authority are held on the first and third Mondays of each month, and typically begin on or preceding the hour of 4:00 P.M in the Council Chambers. A Study Session is used to present information to Council for discussion purposes only with no action being taken or Closed Session may be convened subject to the Brown Act, and may be scheduled prior to the main, public meeting that convenes at 6: 00 P. M. in the Council Chambers. If a regularly scheduled meeting falls on a holiday, the meeting will be held on the next business day.

Special Council Meetings. Special meetings including meetings to adjourn to Closed Session may be called by the Mayor or a majority of the members of the Council, and noticed accordingly to identify the time and place of the special meeting.

Public Input. Each regular meeting shall provide an opportunity for members of the public to address the Council on items that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Council.

Members of the public wishing to speak shall fill out a form provided by the City Clerk, and will be called to the podium at the appropriate time to provide comments within a 3- minute time limit. No person may donate his or her time to another speaker. The Mayor, subject to appeal as a decision of the chair, may establish different time limits for particular issues and individual speakers.

Parliamentary Procedure
Roberts Rules of Order. In all matters of parliamentary procedure not expressly provided for in the City Charter or the ordinances or resolutions of the City of Huntington Beach, the procedure contained in the current edition of Roberts Rules of Order, as it now exists or future revisions thereof, shall control. Failure to comply with technical procedural rules shall not effect the Council' s ultimate decision except to the extent the failure violates due process.

Parliamentarian. The City Attorney is parliamentarian for the City Council, and upon the request of the Mayor or upon his own initiative, shall make rulings on points of parliamentary procedure.

Motions. Motions may be made by any member of the Council and require a second, except when a second is not required by Roberts Rules of Order. A motion may be withdrawn by the mover with the consent of the second and in the absence of objection from any other member of the Council.

The Vote. The vote on all motions shall be by roll call, and recorded by electronic or other means necessary to record the vote.

Division of Question (" Split Vote"). If the question contains two ( 2) or more divisible propositions, the Mayor may, and at the request of any Councilperson shall, divide the question also called " split vote"). Example:

1. Waive further reading of ordinance/ resolution ( requires unanimous vote)

2. Adopt
Tie votes. If a vote results in a tie, the motion fails except that on appellate matters a tie vote on a motion to sustain the lower body' s decision has the effect of sustaining the decision of the lower body. A tie vote on a negative motion does not approve the affirmative side of the motion.

Thus, a tie vote on a motion to disapprove or not to do something does not automatically adopt the opposite. After such tie vote, the question should be made in the affirmative mode.

Rights of Mayor. Each member of Council including the Mayor may make motions, second motions and vote on motions. The practice of some deliberative bodies where the Chairman does not vote except to break a tie does not apply to the Council.

Other Actions. Actions which are not required by the City Charter or City ordinances to be in the form of ordinances or resolutions may be effectuated by minute action.

Minute Actions. In all situations where an action of the Council under the express provisions of the City Charter or ordinances shall or may be by resolution, a " minute action" of the Council adopted by at least four ( 4) affirmative votes shall be deemed a resolution for all purposes, and such action shall not fail merely because it lacks the form or title of a resolution.

Minute actions require the affirmative votes of a majority of Councilpersons present and voting, but not less than three ( 3), except when less than a quorum is present, the lesser number may adjourn from time to time.

Motion to Reconsider. A motion to reconsider, when appropriate under the Brown Act and Roberts Rules of Order, may be made at the same meeting or no later than the next regular meeting if the item is placed on the agenda of the City Council by a Councilperson who voted on the prevailing side of the motion to which it applies.

The vote required to adopt a motion to reconsider shall be a simple majority of Councilpersons present and voting, except that such motion shall require four ( 4) affirmative votes in order to reconsider any motion which required four ( 4) affirmative votes for adoption.

A motion to reconsider may be made only once with respect to any motion to which it applies. However, a motion to reconsider a main motion does not preclude the making of a motion to which it applies.

A motion to reconsider a main motion does not preclude the making of a motion to reconsider the main motion as amended.

A motion to amend may be reconsidered.

A motion to reconsider a motion to reconsider is not permitted. The vote on the motion to reconsider shall be taken at the time the motion to reconsider is made except that the vote on a motion " to reconsider and enter upon the minutes" shall be taken at the next regular meeting of the City Council if said minutes are on the agenda.

The effect of the adoption of a motion to reconsider is to vacate the vote taken on the motion to which it applies and to present the motion to which it applies to the body for action as if no vote had been taken on it. The new vote on the motion to which it applies neither sustains nor overrules such motion because the old vote is vacated, and the new vote is taken as though no previous vote had been taken.

Vote Required on Appellate Matters. Where action has been taken by a lower body that would be final if not appealed, such as decisions by the Zoning Administrator or the Planning Commission, and is subsequently appealed to the higher body, the following procedure applies:

1. If the motion is to sustain the lower body' s decision, a majority of those present and voting is sufficient ( four ( 4) affirmative votes not required). It is not necessary to make a motion to overrule. When there is a tie vote, the lower body is sustained. However, if the motion to sustain gets less than a tie vote, a motion to overrule must be made.

2. If the motion is to overrule the decision of the lower body, four ( 4) affirmative votes are required. If there are less than four ( 4) affirmative votes, the decision of the lower body is deemed sustained and no further vote is required.

3. If a motion is made to modify the decision of the lower body, two separate steps must be taken:
a) First, the motion to modify requires four ( 4) affirmative votes. b) Second, if the motion to modify is adopted, a motion to sustain the decision of the lower body as modified requires the same vote as the motion to sustain. c) A motion to overrule the decision of the lower body, as modified, requires four ( 4) affirmative votes. If there are less than four affirmative votes, the decision of the lower body, as modified, is deemed sustained without further vote. d) If a motion to modify fails, the next motion is either to sustain or to overrule the subordinate body.

Doing Business After 11: 00 P. M. No meeting shall continue beyond 11: 00 P.M. without a majority vote of the Council ( Resolution No. 2015- 46).

The Agenda Process
The Agenda Processis a schedule of activities that occur prior to placing an item on the City Council/ Public Financing Authority agenda. In March 2003, Council approved a policy that provided a timeline for agenda-related activities to facilitate timely compilation and delivery of the agenda packet to Council, staff, and the public. Agenda activities include creation of a Request for Council Action ( RCA/staff report), and depending upon the type of request, may require scheduling a public hearing, submitting a Request for LegalService (RLS) to the City Attorney( legal review of a document or request to prepare a resolution or ordinance), review of fiscal impact information by the Finance Department, and others.

All RCAsmust be submitted to the City Manager for review and approval. The City Manager may request department modifications to the RCA, and once approved, the RCA is forwarded to the City Clerk for additional review for complete materials and final placement on a future agenda.

The City Clerk prepares a draft agenda and presents it to the City Manager, City Attorney, department heads and select Councilmembers at Agenda Review, a meeting held each Monday afternoon the week preceding a regularly scheduled City Council meeting. This meeting is designed to provide staff and the Mayor an opportunity to share information, ask questions or make recommendations to the agendized items. Agenda Review is also the last day a Councilmember can place an item on the agenda. Exceptions can be made for a time- sensitive item that cannot be delayed to a future Council meeting. Items placed on the agenda by individual Councilmembers will be agendized for future action by the City Manager.

Following Agenda Review, agenda packet material is finalized and electronically compiled into iLegislate,the application used by Counciland staff to review agenda-related materials on City- issued iPads or personal e-devices. At 5:00 p. m. on the Wednesday preceding a regularly scheduled City Council meeting, Council is advised by email communication that the e-packet is accessible and ready for downloading onto their City- issued iPads or personal e-devices.

Following release to Council, agenda material is made visible to staff and the public at https:// huntingtonbeach. legistar. com/ Calendar. aspx. If a holiday occurs on the Monday or Tuesday prior to Wednesday' s scheduled agenda packet release, delivery of packet material to Council and the public may delayed by one additional day.

Please refer to 2019 City Council Agenda Deadline Schedule ( attached) as an outline of the agenda process schedule for staff and Councilmembers.

2. In the event no prior instructions or directions have been given, a poll shall be taken of the delegates attending such conference, or other such meeting, so that any vote or action taken by such Councilpersons shall reflect the wishes of a majority of delegates.

3. In the event no prior instructions or directions have been given delegates, or in the event that the City of Huntington Beach is not represented at a conference or other such meeting, but the matter at issue is one on which the Orange County League of Cities has taken a stand concurred in by the City of Huntington Beach, the City Council shall be bound by the action taken on such issue by the Orange County Leagueof Cities.

Additional guidelines include:

4. Members of the Council should avoid discussion or comment on the City matters at conferences or other such meetings or on social media, other than as part of the scheduled program. Discussionswhere 4 or more City Councilmembers are present could

inadvertently create a " serial meeting" of a majority of the members of the Council in violation of the Brown Act.

5. EachCouncilmember has a travel budget used for expenses when attending conferences or training. The Council' s Administrative Assistant can verify each year the amount budgeted for travel, and guidelines for use of funds can be found in Resolution No. 2006- 79 ( attached). A per diem allowance is available for each full day of out- of- town travel to a conference or training, and/ or on official business authorized by the Council. If/ when a Councilmember depletes allocated travel funds, additional travel may be funded by another Councilmember who still has travel funds available.

6. If any more than 3 Councilmembers want to attend the same conference, then seniority would determine who attends. Seniority is determined by the Councilmember position with the Mayor having first right of refusal and the immediate past Mayor placed at the bottom of the list.

Statements of Economic Interests - Form 700 Reporting
1)ThePolitical Reform Act( Act) prohibits a public official from using his or her official position to influence a governmental decision in which he or she has a financial interest. Every state and local agency must adopt a conflict of interest code that identifies all officials and employees within the agency who make governmental decisions based on the positions they hold. The individuals in the designed positions must disclose their financial interests as specified in the agency' s conflict of interest code.

To help identify potential conflicts of interest, the law requires public officials and employees in designated positions in a conflict of interest code to report their financial interests on a form called Statement of Economic Interests— Form 700. The conflict of interest codes and the Form 700s are fundamental tools in ensuring that officials are acting in the public' s best interest and not their own.

The Fair Political Practices Commission ( FPPC) is the agency responsible to provide public officials with answers to questions related to the content they report on their Form 700.

Frequently asked questions and other resource information including an online advice system can be accessed at http:// www. fppc. ca. gov/ Form700. html.

The City' s Conflict of Interest Code ( Resolution No. 2018- 58, attached), details provisions, filing of statements, designation of positions, exclusions, and level of disclosure by category.

All designated filers must file Form 700 information electronically through NetFile, the City' s online portal certified by the FPPCto accept Form 700 and FPPCcampaign disclosure documents. The City Clerk' s office administers the NetFile application, and keeps in contact with all new and existing filers to provide account information, alert filers of deadlines, and assist them with navigational issues. The filer portal is located at https:// netfile. com/ Filer/.

Form 700 information is also used by City staff to create a conflict of interest map for each public official who is responsible to make policy decisions for the City.

The Intergovernmental Relations Committee ( IRC) reviews recommendations from staff and other agencieson the need for the city to take a position on legislation pending before either the State or Federal governments. Recommendations of the IRCare taken to the City Council for approval.

The Mayor is authorized to send letters stating the city position on the specified legislation on behalf of the city to the legislators.

When legislation is moving quickly and requires decisive action, the chair of the IRC, with approval from the Mayor and the City Manager cantake a position on behalf of the city. If the Mayor is unavailable, the Mayor Pro Tem can act on the Mayor' s behalf. If the Mayor is a member of the IRCthen the chair of the IRCand the Mayor Pro Tem, and the City Manager would make the decision. When neither the Mayor nor Mayor Pro Tern is available, the senior most member of the Councilcan act on their behalf. This position will subsequently be brought to the IRCand the City Council.

The IRCis also responsible for preliminary review of the city' sfunding priorities and for working with State and Federal legislators and the city' s lobbyists in seeking funding. To that end, the Mayor and/or the IRCchair may travel to Washington D.C. and Sacramentoeach year.

CEREMONIAL FUNCTIONS
Throughout the year, there are a number of ceremonial functions to attend. While the entire City Council is usually invited to most of these events, the public often anticipates the Mayor' s presence as the ceremonial head of the city. Generally, there are three types of functions:

City Functions ( i.e. opening of new city facilities and employee or volunteer award lunches, etc.)
Community Events ( i. e. Miss. Huntington Beach Pageant, Chamber of Commerce Ribbon Cuttings, Boy Scout Eagle meetings, etc.)
Other Local, County, and Regional Agencies ( Functions of the County or special district i.e.

OCTA, etc.)

1. Mayoral Ceremonial Acceptance Protocol
According to the City Charter, the Mayor is the ceremonial head of the city. Therefore, the Mayor traditionally represents the city at community events and functions. If the Mayor is not able to attend a particular function, the City Council' s Administrative Assistant will utilize the following order in accepting the invitation:
a) Mayor Pro Tem
b) Immediate Past Mayor
c) Remaining City Council Members as directed by the Mayor according to interest

2. Mayoral Ceremonial Absence Protocol
If the Mayor accepts an invitation to any of these events, and later finds that he/ she is unable to attend due to sickness or other reasons, staff will utilize the above protocol for identifying a replacement. The City Council Administrative Assistant will contact the organization hosting the event and notify them that the Mayor will be unable to attend due to extenuating circumstances.

3. Proclamations, Certificates of Recognition, & Commendations a) Purpose of Proclamations, Commendations, Recognitions: To recognize citizens, individuals, or organizations that have provided outstanding service to the community as leaders of charitable or business associations or are recognized in the community for outstanding achievements ( i. e.

RECOMMENDED INTERGOVERNMENTAL PARTICIPATION
League of California Cities— The Orange County Division of the Leagues holds monthly general membership ( dinner) meetings. The Mayor and other Council Members have traditionally been active participants in these meetings as well as the League' s committee structure.

The City Selection Committee ( A Committee of the 34 Orange County Mayors) meets monthly in conjunction with the League dinners. This committee has responsibility for decisions relating to the county as a whole and makes appointments to powerful boards such as the South Coast Air Quality Management District ( SCAQMD), the Orange County Transportation Authority ( OCTA), and the Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission ( LAFCO). It is very important for the Mayor or their designee to attend these meetings.
