Note: A PDF version of this report is attached, in the event that the tables and images do not display properly on the reader's screen.
On September 5, 2023, City Council authorized Special Meetings on September 14, 21, 28 and October 5 to gather public feedback and consider potential amendments to the Charter. On September 21, Council Members deliberated on several amendments that were previously proposed, while adding new amendments and requesting impact analyses on each. The analyses are detailed in this report.
Following deliberation on all amendments tonight, City Council may consider conducting straw votes to identify those that could be placed on the March 5, 2023 Special Election ballot for voter approval.
Financial Impact:
There are no fiscal impacts at this time.
Recommended Action:
..recommendation
A) Discuss potential amendments to the Charter; and
B) Conduct straw votes on Charter amendments that may be placed on the March 5, 2024 Special Election ballot.
..end
Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve one or more recommended action; direct staff accordingly.
Analysis:
During the September 21 Special Meeting, City Council discussed potential Charter amendments and requested impact analyses for consideration. Included in the analyses below are possible amendment language to be used as examples only. If an amendment is approved via straw vote tonight, the Attorney’s Office will provide legal review and official charter amendment language for consideration on October 5.
Section 300. Recommended by Council Member Bolton
(The following language was based on a similar amendment considered by the 2021-22 Charter Revision Committee and is provided as an example only.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
The current Charter does not impose any term limits for its three elected Charter officer positions. To understand how other communities with elected officers manage terms, staff conducted a survey (below):
Elected Charter
Officer
Terms
City Attorney Currently, 9 other California charter cities elect their Attorneys:
• 2 impose a two consecutive term limit (San Diego, Chula Vista) • 1 imposes a two term limit (Los Angeles)
• 6 do not impose term limits
City Clerk Currently, 13 other California charter cities elect their Clerk. None impose term limits.
City Treasurer Currently, 14 other California charter cities elect their Treasurer. None impose term limits.
At this time, term limits are typically not imposed for elected City Clerk and Treasurer positions, while there are some exceptions for the City Attorney position. There may be some concerns that the turnover stemming from term limits may reduce the pool of qualified candidates, as these roles (including the ones in Huntington Beach) are skilled department head positions that would exercise significant managerial duties.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
"Section 300. CITY COUNCIL, ATTORNEY, CLERK AND TREASURER. TERMS. The elective officers of the City shall consist of a City Council of seven members, a City Clerk, a City Treasurer and a City Attorney, all to be elected from the City at large at the times and in the manner provided in this Charter and who shall serve for terms of four years and until their respective successors qualify.
Subject to the provisions of this Charter, the members of the City Council in office at the time this Charter takes effect shall continue in office until the expiration of their respective terms and until their successors are elected and qualified. Four members of the City Council shall be elected at the general municipal election held in 1966, and each fourth year thereafter. Three members of the City Council shall be elected at the general municipal election held in 1968, and each fourth year thereafter. No person shall be elected as a member of the City Council, as a City Attorney, as a City Clerk, or as a City Treasurer for more than two consecutive terms and no person who has been a member elected to such a position for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected a member shall be elected to the City Council that respective position for more than one further consecutive term. Subject to the provisions of this Charter, the City Clerk, City Treasurer and City Attorney in office at the time this Charter takes effect shall continue in office until the expiration of their respective terms and the qualification of their successors. A City Clerk and City Treasurer shall be elected at the general municipal election held in 1968, and each fourth year thereafter. A City Attorney shall be elected in 1966, and each fourth year thereafter.
The term of each member of the City Council, the City Clerk, the City Treasurer and the City Attorney shall commence on the first Monday following the certification of the election. Ties in voting among candidates for office shall be settled by the casting of lots.
If no candidate meets the qualifications for office of the City Clerk, City Treasurer, or City Attorney, the City Council shall fill that position by appointment until the next municipal general election in which a qualified candidate is elected."
Section 300. Recommended by Council Member Kalmick
(The following language was based on a similar amendment considered by the 2021-22 Charter Revision Committee and is provided below as an example only.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
The Huntington Beach City Attorney was first identified as an appointed position in 1909. Records remain unclear but the City Attorney converted to an elected position in 1950 or 1966. Over the years, the roles and duties, as well as the election process for this position have been examined and/or reconsidered multiple times; Charter amendments to convert the position to an appointed role were placed on ballot measures in 1973 and 1978, but were defeated. Today, Huntington Beach is one of 10 California charter cities with an elected City Attorney.
The Huntington Beach City Clerk and Treasurer have historically been elected, since the first Charter was established. Over the years, the role and duties, as well as the election process for these positions have been examined and/or reconsidered multiple times; Charter amendments to convert both to appointed roles were placed on ballot and/or placed on a ballot measures in 1973, 1978, and 1984, but were defeated. Today, Huntington Beach is one of 14 California Charter cities with elected City Clerks and one of 15 with elected City Treasurers.
All three positions operate as Department Heads at this time. Converting them into appointed roles is not anticipated to affect their roles and duties and should not result in significant operational impacts.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
"Section 300. CITY COUNCIL, ATTORNEY, CLERK AND TREASURER. TERMS.

Section 302. Recommended by Council Member Kalmick
(Proposed revisions are not available at this time and are pending Council discussion. Below is the current Charter section as is.)
Preliminary Fiscal and Operational Analysis:
Per the Charter, the City Council receives:
1. A monthly salary of $175, a static amount that does not change from year to year.
2. A monthly expense allowance for other routine and ordinary expenses, losses and costs imposed upon them by virtue of their serving as City Councilpersons. The current monthly allowance is approximately $1,765 (per Council Member) and $2,470 (per Mayor at 40% higher due to his/her additional responsibilities); both amounts are updated based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) from year to year. This allowance is authorized under Ordinance No. 4044.
3. An annual budget for authorized travel/conferences when on official duty. In FY2023-24, each Council Member can expend up to $5,810; the Mayor up to $6,973.
The annual compensation range of City Councils in Huntington Beach, Orange County charter cities and two comparably-sized cities in LA County are below and include items 1-2 above. (Compensation does not include indirect forms of compensation such as pension costs or insurance benefits, since they are elective and not all City Council members have opted in.)

Glendale 191,284 $11,759 - $28,058 $104
(2022 Data, California State Controller website: publicpay.ca.gov)
Based on the low and the high end of Huntington Beach’s annual compensation range, the monthly compensation is approximately $1,642-$2,270. In comparison to the compensation formula in SB 329 for General Law cities over 150,000 and up to/including 250,000 residents, General Law City Council Members are compensated $2,550 per month.
"Section 302. COMPENSATION.
The members of the City Council including the Mayor shall receive as compensation for their services as such a monthly salary in the sum of One Hundred Seventy-five Dollars per month. In addition, each member of the City Council shall receive reimbursement on order of the City Council for Council authorized traveling and other expenses when on official duty upon submission of itemized expense accounts therefor. In addition, members shall receive such reasonable and adequate amounts as may be established by ordinance, which amounts shall be deemed to be reimbursement to them of other routine and ordinary expenses, losses and costs imposed upon them by virtue of their serving as City Councilpersons.”
Section 307 (add new paragraph). Recommended by Council Member Bolton
(The following language was provided by Council Member Bolton.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
There are no known operational impacts at this time. This amendment would maintain the City’s current library book policies. Any requests to change the City’s existing or future library collection would continue to be addressed through the existing materials reconsideration process that is available to patrons with concerns about any materials.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
Section 312. Recommended by Mayor Strickland.
(The following language was on the November 2022 General Election ballot and serves as an example.) “Section 307. NON-INTERFERENCE WITH ADMINISTRATION. Except as otherwise provided in this Charter, no member of the City Council shall order, directly or indirectly, the appointment by the City Manager, or by any of the department heads in administrative service of the City, of any person to any office or employment, or removal therefrom. Except for the purpose of investigation and inquiry, the members of the City Council shall deal with the administrative service under the jurisdiction of the City Manager solely through the City Manager, and no member of the City Council shall give orders to any subordinate of the City Manager, either publicly or private ly.
No elected department head or staff of the Office of the elected department head shall be a member of the management negotiation team for the purposes of negotiations of memorandums of understanding with the employee bargaining units.
The City Council and any other elective officer of the City shall not order, directly or indirectly, the review, removal, restriction of access, prohibition, acquisition, classification, rating, or placement, of any material or content, currently or contemplated to be, within the collection, possession, or inventory of the City’s libraries.”
"Section 312. VACANCIES, FORFEITURES AND REPLACEMENT.
(a) Vacancies. A vacancy in the City Council or in any other office designated as elective by this Charter, from whatever cause arising, shall be filled by appointment by the City Council with at least four affirmative votes. (b) Forfeiture. If a member of the City Council is absent from all regular meetings of the City Council for a period of thirty consecutive days from and after the last regular City Council meeting attended by such member, unless by permission of the City Council expressed in its official minutes, the office shall become vacant. If an elected City officer pleads guilty or no contest to or is convicted of a felony or any crime of moral turpitude, or ceases to be an elector of the City, the office shall become vacant. The City Council shall declare the existence of such vacancy. Any elective officer of the City who shall accept or retain any other elective public office, except as provided in this Charter, shall be deemed thereby to have vacated the office under the City Government. (c) Replacement. In the event it the City Council shall fail to fill a vacancy by appointment within sixty days after such office shall become vacant, the City Council shall forthwith cause an election to be held to fill such vacancy for the remainder of the unexpired term. If the City Council fills the vacancy by appointment, such appointee shall hold office until an election to fill the remainder of the unexpired term at the next general municipal election.
Should the appointment occur after the filing deadline for the next general municipal election, the seat shall be deemed vacant upon the certification of the general municipal election, and the vacancy shall be filled in accordance with Sections 312(a) and 312(c)."
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
The proposed amendment adds requirements to fill a City Council vacancy by requiring at least four affirmative votes (and not a simple majority of the seated Council Members at that time). This proposed amendment would establish that such appointees would fill the vacancy only until the next general municipal election, when the local electorate may vote for a candidate to permanently fill the remainder of the unexpired term for that position. If the appointment occurs after the filing deadline for the next general municipal election, the seat is deemed vacant. Upon certification of the general municipal election, the newly seated City Council will be charged with filling the vacancy by appointment or election. This amendment is not expected to result in any significant operational impacts.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
This amendment will yield some additional costs to fill the vacancy via an election. However, it is not anticipated to result in significant financial impacts.
Section 313. Recommended by Council Member Bolton
(The following language was provided by Council Member Bolton for consideration. The City Attorney’s Office will need to provide final language, following Council discussion.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
A review of regional charter cities, as it relates to the nepotism policies in their charters is below.
Orange County
Charter Cities
Section on Nepotism
Anaheim, Los Alamitos,
Newport Beach, Seal
Beach
Their charter language mirror Huntington Beach’s, with minor variations.
Please note - These cities do not have elected department heads; as such, they do not specifically prohibit Council from appointing relatives of elected department heads or other offers with appointive powers.
Irvine, Santa Ana Their charters briefly mention a prohibition on nepotism and calls for the use of other governing policies (i.e. personnel rules) to outline the details.
Buena Park, Cypress,
Placentia
No nepotism language in their charters.
LA County
Charter Cities
Section on Nepotism
Glendale, Long Beach,
Los Angeles, Pasadena
No nepotism language in their charters.
Huntington Beach provides details on its anti-nepotism policy in other authorizing documents (see below). A legal analysis would be required to determine if such a prohibition must also be included in the Charter:
“Section 313. CONFLICT OF INTEREST, NEPOTISM.
(a) Conflict of Interest. The City Council shall adopt or approve rules and regulations regulating conflicts of interest and promoting fair dealing in all City business. (b) Nepotism. The City Council shall not appoint to a salaried position under the City government any person who is a relative by blood or marriage within the third degree of any one or more of the members of such City Council, elected department head, or other officer with appointive powers nor shall the City Manager or any department head or other officer having appointive power appoint any relative of such person or of any Council member within such degree to any such position.
Source of Authority Details
Personnel Rules
16-2 and 16-3
- Persons related by blood or marriage within the third degree* cannot report to the same supervisor or supervise one another.
- Such persons cannot be in positions where one has access to privileged or confidential information that should not be accessible to the other.
Administrative
Regulation 411
- An appointing authority cannot appoint an immediate family member of the City Manager, Department Head, or Personnel Director to a paid temporary or permanent position.
- An employee cannot be moved to a position within the direct line of supervision of a relative; these relatives cannot have the same immediate supervisor.
* The term “third degree” is the same as "immediate family” (relative), which includes an individual related by blood, adoption or marriage, e.g. spouse, parent, child, sibling, sibling/children-in-law, grandparent, grandchild, uncle/aunt, nephew/niece, stepparent/child/sibling, half-sibling.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
Charter amendments from Measure L (2022) with exclusions. Recommended by Council Member Kalmick
(The language of the proposed amendments are separately listed in Attachment 1, due to their length.
Amendments related to Section 612 have been removed as they are being considered by City Council as a separate amendment.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
Measure L proposed both substantive and non-substantive amendments.
Amendments to Sections 300, 303, 304, 306, 311, 312, 400, 601, 604, 801 are non-substantive in that they clarify or update language in the Charter regarding outdated phrases, syntax, dates, pronouns and titles.
For example, Section 300 updates the
election years to be more current and rephrases the term “casting of lots” to a “random drawing” for clarity.
Section 303 updates the Charter to allow the use of “current technology” to distribute notices, changes the words “executive session” to “closed session” because closed session is the current vernacular as well as clarify the process of adjourning City Council meetings.
303(c) 312(c) 400(d) and 801(e) replace pronouns “he” or “it” with “person” or the title being referred to and 311(d) 601, 604 replaces “Director of Finance” with the updated title of “Chief Financial Officer” and 306 replaces the title “Mayor Pro Tempore” with “Vice Mayor” to better describe the position.
One substantive amendment is in Section 804 which would require City Council to consider a Charter review at least every ten years, starting after the last review conducted by a Committee, Council or staff.
This would require additional staffing support to organize but does not pose a significant operating impact.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
Sections 307, 401. Recommended by Council Member Kalmick (Proposed revisions are not available at this time. Below are the current, relevant Charter sections for discussion purposes. The City Attorney’s Office will need to provide final language, following Council discussion.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis:
Among the five largest Orange County cities - Anaheim, Santa Ana, Irvine, Huntington Beach, and Garden Grove – only Irvine and Anaheim retain paid staff that directly reports to individual City Council Members and provides policy, administrative and field support. The Irvine City Council currently maintains 19 FTE, while “Section 307. NON-INTERFERENCE WITH ADMINISTRATION.
Except as otherwise provided in this Charter, no member of the City Council shall order, directly or indirectly, the appointment by the City Manager, or by any of the department heads in administrative service of the City, of any person to any office or employment, or removal therefrom. Except for the purpose of investigation and inquiry, the members of the City Council shall deal with the administrative service under the jurisdiction of the City Manager solely through the City Manager, and no member of the City Council shall give orders to any subordinate of the City Manager, either publicly or privately.
No elected department head or staff of the Office of the elected department head shall be a member of the management negotiation team for the purposes of negotiations of memorandums of understanding with the employee bargaining units.
Section 401. POWERS
Except as otherwise provided in this Charter, the City Manager shall be responsible to the City Council for the proper administration of all affairs of the City. Without limiting this general grant of powers and responsibilities, the City Manager shall have the power and be required to:
(a) Appoint, promote, demote, suspend or remove department heads, officers and employees of the City except elective officers and the Chief of Police. The Chief of Police shall not be appointed or removed until the City Manager shall first have reviewed such appointment or removal with the City Council and have received approval for such appointment or removal by a majority vote of the full City Council. (b) Prepare the budget annually, submit it to the City Council, and be responsible for its administration upon adoption.
(c) Prepare and submit to the City Council as of the end of each fiscal year, a complete report on the finances of the City, and annually or more frequently, a current report of the principal administrative activities of the City. (d) Keep the City Council advised of the financial condition and future needs of the City and make such recommendations as may seem desirable.
(e) Maintain a centralized purchasing system for all City offices, departments and agencies. (f) Prepare, administer and enforce rules and regulations recommended to and adopted by the City Council governing the contracting for, purchase, inspection, storage, inventory, distribution and disposal of all supplies, materials and equipment required by any office, department or agency of the City government. (g) Be responsible for the compliance by the City with the laws of the State pertaining to the City, the provisions of this Charter and the ordinances, franchises and rights of the City.
Subject to policy established by the City Council, exercise control of all administrative offices and departments of the City and of all appointive officers and employees, and prescribe such general rules and regulations as deemed necessary or proper for the general conduct of the administrative offices and departments of the City under their jurisdiction.
(h) Perform such other duties consistent with this Charter as may be required by the City Council.
Anaheim has approximately 9 FTE. Other cities including Huntington Beach, Santa Ana, and Garden Grove have a dedicated analyst or equivalent who supports the City Council but reports directly to the City Manager.
To facilitate staff, Irvine’s charter states:
Section 700. - Administrative departments.
a. The Council may establish City departments, offices or agencies in addition to those created by this Charter and may prescribe the functions of all departments, offices, and agencies. b. Except as otherwise provided by this Charter, all departments, offices, and agencies under the direction and supervision of the City Manager shall be administered by an officer appointed by and subject to the direction and supervision of the City Manager. With the consent of the Council, the City Manager may serve as the departmental administrator of one or more such departments, offices, or agencies or may appoint one person as the departmental administrator of two or more of them. c. The Council may provide for the number, titles, and compensation of all officers and employees.
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis:
The proposed Charter amendment currently seeks flexibility to add Council-directed staff in the future. As such, there is no fiscal impact at this time. However, it can be surmised that if approved, additional FTE will be required. The average personnel cost per one Council Analyst is approximately $141,500 (not including UAL and POBs).
New section to provide for an office of legislative counsel. Recommended by Council Member Kalmick (Proposed revisions will be contingent upon Council discussion.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis
There are no known operational impacts at this time. However, additional legal research may be required to further consider this amendment. Research indicates that various California cities may install an Office of Legislative Counsel via charter, create an Ethics Commission/Board via ordinance, or formally adopt a Code of Ethics as prescribed by charter.
Legislative counsel and advisory bodies, i.e. boards and commissions, are tasked with • enforcement of laws, regulations, and policies intended to assure fairness, openness, honesty and integrity in City government
• education of aforementioned
• impartial administration
• advise and recommend to Council on all matters related to potential unethical conduct • render advisory opinion or Code interpretation
Chula Vista Charter stipulates that via ordinance Council may establish Office of Legislative Counsel.
Board of Ethics and Code of Ethics established by ordinance, 2013.
Santa Ana Charter stipulates that City shall adopt a Code of Ethics and Conduct for elected officials, executive team, and those appointed to boards, commissions, and committees. Code of Ethics and Conduct was updated in 2022.
Oakland Public Ethics Commission established by charter and enacted by ordinance.
Preliminary Financial Analysis
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
New section to limit elected officials from endorsing or campaigning with other elected officials.
Recommended by Council Member Kalmick
(Proposed revisions will be contingent upon Council discussion.)
Preliminary Operational Analysis
There are no known operational impacts at this time, although there may be additional legal research required.
Some charter cities enact restrictions to curb influence on campaigns by elected and appointed officials. For example the City of Oakland (which has an elected City Attorney) Charter Section 401(7) states, “During the City Attorney's tenure, the City Attorney shall not make or solicit contributions to, publicly endorse or urge the endorsement of or otherwise participate in a campaign for a candidate for City elective office, other than for the City Attorney, or of a City ballot measure, or be an officer, director or employee of or hold a policy decision- making position in an organization that makes political endorsements regarding candidates for City elective office.”
Preliminary Fiscal Analysis
There are no known fiscal impacts at this time.
Section 612. Recommended by the Ad Hoc Committee
