Background:
On October 3, 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 17-056 adopting the City Council Policy and Procedure Manual (Manual) which created a centralized and comprehensive set of rules, policies and procedures governing the conduct of City Council meetings and the carrying out of the day-to-day business of the City of Victorville.
Chapter 1, Section II B of the Manual provides that the Manual be reviewed at least biennially and may be revised by resolution of the City Council. To date, revisions to the Manual have occurred annually with the latest revision, Resolution No. 21-111 adopted on October 4, 2022.
Discussion:
As part of the Manual, Chapter 2, Section II Council Election and Governance, spells out the process for the appointment of the offices of Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem as follows:
2 3
3 7
“The City of Victorville is governed by a five-member City Council elected to four-year terms on a staggered basis. Councilmembers are elected in the general election in November of even-numbered years. The Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem will be appointed by a majority vote of the entire membership of the City Council. The City Council shall appoint the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem for one-year terms at the first regular meeting in December of every year or as soon thereafter as feasible and, when applicable, following the certification of election results and seating of new City Councilmembers. The newly-appointed Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem assume their positions immediately following the majority vote.
The nomination and appointment procedure for the offices of Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem shall be conducted in successive order and as shown below.
1. The City Clerk receives up to one nomination per Councilmember until no further nominations are forthcoming. Seconds are not required.
2. The City Clerk closes nominations.
3. The City Clerk calls on each Councilmember to cast by verbal vote the name of his/her nominee of choice.
4. The City Clerk announces the outcome of the vote and declares the appointment upon a majority vote of the full membership.
5. If an appointment is not confirmed, the City Clerk repeats the foregoing procedure once more on the prospect of the City Council reaching agreement.
The newly-appointed Mayor shall preside over the process for the office of Mayor Pro Tem, unless he/she prefers the City Clerk facilitate the appointment.
Should the City Council be unsuccessful in its appointment efforts, whether it be by insufficiency of votes or failed action pursuant to Chapter 5, Section R, Tie Votes, the item shall be reconsidered during the next regular City Council meeting in expectation of securing the requisite consensus of the full body. If such consensus is not gained after the second consecutive Council meeting during which one or more appointments were considered, the sitting Mayor and/or Mayor Pro Tem, as applicable, shall remain in office until the next annual organizational meeting.”
