Executive Summary
Appointment of Angelique Weathersby to the Elected Official Compensation Advisory Commission representing Ward 5 with the term ending December 2028.
Background
Section 305 of the City Charter provides that compensation for the Mayor and Council Members shall be established by ordinance following a public hearing, giving due consideration to the recommendations of an advisory commission charged with the periodic review of compensation for city-elected officials. Compensation for the Mayor shall be commensurate with that for a full-time position. No ordinance to increasing such salaries shall be effective until the date of commencement of the terms of council members elected at the next regular election.
Thereafter, the Mayor and City Council adopted San Bernardino Municipal Code Chapter 2.19 which establishes the Elected Official Compensation Advisory Commission and provides that the commission shall consist of nine members who shall serve at the pleasure of the Mayor and City Council. Pursuant to the Municipal Code, each City Council Member shall nominate one (1) member who shall serve during and for the term of the nominating Council Member, and the Mayor shall nominate two (2) members who shall serve during and for the term of the Mayor.
