CITY OF LAGUNA NIGUEL
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
To: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Tamara S. Letourneau, City Manager
DATE: July 18, 2023
SUBJECT: Appointment of City Council Liaisons to Regional Agency Boards and City Commissions, Committees, and Boards
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Appoint Council Representatives to the Regional Agency Boards as identified in Attachment A; and,
2. Appoint Council Liaisons to City Commissions, Committees, and Boards as identified in Attachment B.
BACKGROUND
Following a City Council reorganization, it is customary for the City Council to consider the Mayor's recommendations regarding appointments to applicable Regional Agency Boards and City Commissions, Committees, and Boards. The City Council Policy provides the Mayor with the responsibility to make Council Member assignment nominations and requires approval by the majority of the City Council.
Mayor Jennings is recommending appointments to applicable Regional Boards (Attachment A) and City Commissions, Committees, and Boards (Attachment B).
ANALYSIS
The following are the Regional Agencies, City Commissions, and Committees that require appointed City representatives:
Regional Agencies
• California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA)
• Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD)
Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA)
• Orange County Mosquito and Vector Control District (OCMVD) • Orange County Public Library Advisory Board (OCPLAB)
• San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency (SJHTCA) • South Orange County Watershed Management Area Executive Committee (SOCWMA)
City Commissions and Committees
• Investment, Banking, and Audit Committee
• Military Support Committee
• Parks and Recreation Commission
• Senior Citizens Committee
• Traffic and Transportation Commission
• Youth Committee
• City/CDBG Grants Sub Committee (Ad Hoc)
Additionally, please note that the Planning Commission is not included on the list because the City Council is designated as the appeal board for actions taken by the Planning Commission. Having a City Council member serve on the Planning Commission would therefore be a conflict.
FISCAL REVIEW
There is no fiscal impact as a result of this report.
LEGAL REVIEW
No legal review is required for this report.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Appoint Council Representatives to the Regional Agency Boards as identified in Attachment A; and,
2. Appoint Council Liaisons to City Commissions, Committees, and Boards as identified in Attachment B.
