A motion was made by Delgleize, second Posey to, after the City Clerk reads by title, approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4171, "An Ordinance of the City of Huntington Beach Amending Chapter 17.56.200 of the Huntington Beach Municipal Code Regarding Security Gates." The motion carried by the following vote: AYES: Brenden, Carr, Semeta, Peterson, Posey, Delgleize, and Hardy NOES: None COUNCILMEMBER ITEMS 34. 19-097 Approved City Councilmember Item submitted by Councilmember Posey for the January 22, 2019 City Council meeting — Formation of a Charter Review Commission Councilmember Posey explained that in his review of the City Charter, Section 804, Charter Review, stipulates that the City Council shall determine if there is a need to convene a citizen's Charter Review Commission to conduct a review of the City Charter no less frequently than every ten years. The last Charter Review was completed in 2009. Councilmember Posey further stated he believes it would be prudent for the Council to convene a Commission of experts to review the Charter to determine if changes are needed to preserve the City's autonomy as a Charter City. Councilmember Delgleize and Councilmember Posey discussed details related to the composition of the Commission and process. Councilmember Carr stated her support for conducting a Charter Review every ten (10) years City Council/PFA Regular Meeting Successor Agency Special Meeting Minutes January 22, 2019 Page 14 of 15 Councilmember Brenden confirmed that he served on the Charter Review Commission in 2009, and stated his support for this item. Councilmember Hardy expressed her recollection that in 2009 it had been nearly twenty (20) years since there had been a Charter review and there were specific issues that needed attention. She does not think there are currently Charter issues that need to be addressed, and therefore will not support this item. Mayor Pro Tem Semeta and City Manager Wilson discussed details related to the process and costs in 2009. Councilmember Carr suggested it would be beneficial to look at three experts in selecting a Charter Review Consultant. Mayor Peterson stated that he agrees with Councilmember Hardy's comments, and doesn't see any specific needs that should be addressed, and therefore he will not support this item. Mayor Pro Tem Semeta and Councilmember Hardy both stated that if the scope of the proposed Charter Review included some specific issues to be addressed they could be more supportive. City Attorney Gates stated that the City Charter is currently as broad as it can be to invoke every authority the California Constitution affords, and in his opinion there is nothing more to do to strengthen the City Charter. A motion was made by Posey, second Brenden to direct the City Manager to convene the Charter Review Commission to be made up of 15 members — 7 appointed individually by each of the City Council Members and 8 to be appointed by the City Council as a whole; and retain the services of a Charter Review Consultant to assist the Commission and staff in the review of the Charter.
