Council’s agenda. RFPs have been developed to the specific requirements of the various disciplines. The proposals will be advertised for a minimum of 45 days and be available on various platforms such as Planet Bid and Civic Plus as well as advertised in printed media.

LEGAL REQUIREMENT
Congress adopted the Brooks Act (P.L. 92-582), requiring the use of Qualifications-Based Selection (QBS) for the procurement of architect and engineering services.

The City Clerk’s Office shall publish the RFP in the local newspaper of general circulation, the City’s website and other forms of electronic media. The RFP shall describe the project and provide the tasks required from qualified firms. The time and location to submit proposals shall also be placed within the published RFP. The RFP shall be published for a minimum period of twenty-one (21) calendar days. Once proposals are submitted, reviewed and scored, staff will come back to the City Council with a recommendation to award.

FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
At this time, there is no fiscal impact associated with the approval of the solicitation of proposals to perform the requested professional services. Once proposals are submitted and evaluated, staff will return with a well-defined budget for consideration and approval at a future City Council meeting. The current services are included in the FY24/25 budget. •

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing on behalf of the Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation to kindly request a waiver of fees associated with our upcoming food distribution event scheduled for Saturday, November 23, 2024.

The event will take place at Huntington Park Community Center, where we plan to provide essential food and supplies to underserved members of our community. Our mission is to promote compassion, relief, and equity, and this distribution event is a vital part of our efforts to support individuals and families in need during the holiday season.

The Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation is a non-profit organization that operates solely through the generosity of donors and volunteers. A waiver of the fees will allow us to allocate more resources directly to those in need and ensure the success of this charitable event.

We kindly ask for your consideration of this fee waiver, which will enable us to maximize our impact on the community we serve. Enclosed, please find all relevant documentation about our organization and the planned event for your review.

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. We deeply appreciate the City of Huntington's continued support of community initiatives like ours. If you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact me at (909) 288-2088 at [email protected].

We look forward to your positive response.

(b) Requested use of facility does not occur during Peak Hours of Operation, as defined by this Policy; and
(c) Requested use of facility does not conflict with or impede facility reservations for which full fees are paid; and

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

HUNTINGTON PARK ADOPTING REVISED RULES, METHOD

OF APPOINTMENT, GUIDELINES FOR THE CONDUCT OF

MEETINGS AND STRUCTURE FOR ALL COMMISSIONS OF

THE CITY AND REPEALING ALL PRIOR RESOLUTIONS OR

PROVISIONS IN CONFLICT WITH THE PROVISIONS

CONTAINED HEREIN
WHEREAS, the City Council has decided to amend all commission resolutions to provide for congruent and consistent regulation and structure across all City Commissions.

THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON PARK DOES
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1: Establishment of City Commissions.

The City has currently established the following commissions to serve in the capacity as advisory bodies to the City Council:

Planning Commission
Civil Service Commission
Parks and Recreation Commission
Health and Education Commission
Historic Preservation Commission
Youth Commission (pending approval).

This Resolution is intended to govern and supersede all prior resolutions establishing and amending member qualifications, organizational rules, guidelines and structure for City Commissions and hereby repeals all provisions in conflict with the provisions contained herein by the adoption of the revised provisions below. This Resolution will also govern over provisions of City ordinances currently in existence, but which will be repealed or amended for consistency with this Resolution. This Resolution shall also govern and control any additional Commission created by the City Council in addition to those enumerated above.

SECTION 2: Membership.

All City Commissions shall consist of five (5) members, with the exception of the Youth Commission which shall consist of ten (10) youth from the City as defined below. All members of each Commission shall be a resident of the City of Huntington Park, however, at the City Council’s discretion, no more than two (2) Commissioners for any Commission may be non-Huntington Park residents. Each person seeking appointment to a Commission shall complete an application provided by the City and submit to a Live Scan background check before being appointed to a Commission and before being sworn in to office.

28 SECTION 3: Appointment, Reappointment and Removal.

Each member of the City Council shall have authority to appoint one (1) member to each Commission, with the exception of the Youth Commission, which shall consist of two (2) members appointed by each City Councilmember. Each Councilmember shall appoint their Commissioners within sixty (60) days of assuming office, or from the adoption of this Resolution, or from a vacancy occurring for said Commission position for that respective Councilmember appointment. If no appointment is made within sixty (60) days of assuming office, or from the adoption of this Resolution, or from a vacancy occurring for said Commission position, the Mayor shall appoint a member to the vacant seat.

Commission members may be removed from their appointment due to disqualification as provided for in this Resolution or upon the sole decision by the Councilmember who appointed that Commissioner. All appointments or removal of Commissioners shall occur at an open meeting of the City Council. If removal of a Commissioner occurs, the City Clerk shall send notice to that Commissioner at the last address on file with the City.

SECTION 4: Term of Office.

Each Commissioner’s term shall be for a period of four years, unless removed by the appointing Councilmember or as a result of disqualification as set forth herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Commissioner shall serve for a period which exceeds the time in office for the Councilmember appointing that Commissioner. In the event that the appointing Councilmember completes his or her term, vacates their office or otherwise is no longer holding office, the term of the Commissioner appointed by said Councilmember shall end. However, nothing contained in this section shall prevent another Councilmember or the new Councilmember from appointing the individual back to the same Commission or to a different Commission.

SECTION 5: Vacancy Due to Disqualification.

When a member no longer meets the qualifications for the Commission, the member is therefore disqualified, and the office shall thereupon become vacant.

SECTION 6: Vacancy.

If for any reason a vacancy occurs, it shall be filled by appointment by the member of the City Council who appointed said Commissioner for the unexpired portion of such term.

SECTION 7: Quorum.

A majority of the total number of members of the Commission shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a lesser number may adjourn from time to time for want of quorum and until a quorum can be obtained. -2-
