A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH OPPOSING AB 202
WHEREAS, the Senate Committee on Governmental Efficiency
has approved AB 202, and has sent such bill to the floor of the
Senate with a "do pass" recommendation; and
Such bill would extend the Brown Act to apply to any ad-
visory committee whether composed solely of public officials or
solely of citizens, or a combination of public officials and
citizens, and would apply to either elected or appointed public
officers or employees; and
The City of Huntington Beach and other local governmental
agencies appoint a wide variety of advisory committees to study
and investigate specific projects and report back to the public
body, and most of these advisory committees meet only once or
twice and their work is completed; and
AB 202 would require a regular meeting time and place, and
notice of any special meeting, and such meetings would have to
be held in a place accessible to the public rather than in one
of the member's homes or some other convenient location; and
To require publication of the time and place of such meet-
ings would cause an undue burden upon the city, as well as impose
a burden upon the committees attempting to provide a needed public
service,
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Huntington
Beach does hereby declare that it is opposed to AB 202 and does
hereby recommend that the Senate defeat AB 202 for the reasons
set forth hereinabove.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Hunting-
ton Beach at a regular meeting thereof held on the day
1.
of July, 1968.
