Hopkins, Assistant City Manager Subject: Filling an unscheduled vacancy on the City Council (continued from July 19, 2021) Statement of Issue: On June 1, 2021, Mayor Pro Tem Jacob “Tito” Ortiz abandoned and resigned his City Council seat. Pursuant to Section 312 of the Huntington Beach Charter, unscheduled vacancies on the City Council are to be filled by an appointment of the City Council within 60 days. Further, the Charter stipulates that if the City Council fails to fill the vacancy within that specified timeframe, a special election must then be held to fill the vacated role. After coordinating an overall application and assessment process, a total of 105 final candidates were identified for possible appointment to the vacant seat. On July 19, the City Council held a Special City Council Meeting to consider making an appointment, and following considerable discussion, the City Council voted to adjourn and continue the conversation at a subsequent Special City Council meeting, which was coordinated to occur on July 26. Financial Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with appointing a candidate to fill the current vacant City Council seat. However, if the City Council fails to reach consensus on an individual to appoint to the abandoned City Council seat, the subsequent Special Election will cost an estimated $885K - $1M . Recommended Action: Select a candidate for appointment to the vacated City Council seat. Alternative Action(s): Provide direction to hold a Special Election to fill the vacant City Council seat. Analysis: A Special Meeting of the City Council was held on June 10, 2021 to consider the vacancy, at which time the City Council directed that an appointment process be coordinated to include an application period, introductory interviews with eligible applicants, and a final deliberation to identify an individual City of Huntington Beach Printed on 7/23/2021Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™6 File #:21-564 MEETING DATE:7/26/2021 to fill the vacant City Council seat. Pursuant to that direction, applications were accepted from June 11, 2021, through June 18, 2021. Subsequently, a Special City Council Meeting was held on July 9 - 10, 2021, for the introductory candidate interviews. During the overall assessment process, applications received were as follows: ·190 applications were received prior to the close of the application process on June 18, 2021. ·131 applicants accepted an interview time slot with the City Council on either July 9 - 10, 2021. ·A total of 105 applicants participated in the introductory interviews that were held July 9 - 10, 2021. On July 10, as part of the Special City Council meeting, the appointment process was further defined to include the following parameters: ·A Special City Council meeting would be held on July 19, 2021, at which time the City Council would deliberate and attempt to identify an applicant to fill the vacant City Council seat. ·To facilitate the assessment process, each City Council member will be able to initially nominate up to 3 candidates for consideration of appointment to the vacated role. ·Once the finalist candidates are identified by the City Council, a process consisting of selection rounds will be engaged in an attempt to identify an individual for appointment to the vacant seat. o During each assessment round, Council Members would identify their top candidate for filling the vacancy. o After each round, the candidate that receives the least amount of support would be removed for consideration during the future rounds. o The assessment process would be continued until one candidate receives support of at least 4 Council Members. o Ultimately, if no candidate received support from a majority of the City Council by the July 30, 2021 deadline, then a special election would then be required. On July 19, a Special Meeting was held to consider appointment of one of the 105 final applicants to the vacant seat. After discussing potential candidates, and after considering a special election to fill the seat, the City Council voted to adjourned and continue the meeting at a future date.

Having secured our dinner reservation well beforetonight's meeting was announced, I will attempt to join the meeting (via zoom) from the restaurant at PacificCity on PCH.Last night, I worked on the front lines ofHB Beach Operations. This being 'Surf City,' I choose to do my partin maintaining the core tourist infrastructure of our community. Sadly, attached are images that the public willview of our fair city when they arrive at the oceanfront today, in full view from the Pacific City balconies andother hotels in the area. . .not to mention the beach goers.Securing the intellectual property asset of our 'Surf City' community image might need to be an unexpectedpriority in these complicated times. The work at the beach is grueling and our staff does a remarkable job withthe process that is in place. This and many other infrastructure processes need constant reevaluation.The nostalgia of the "Hay Day" of Jan and Dean deserves a spotlight, but a focused nostalgic light can blind usall from the true issues regarding drugs, violence, homeless numbers and a paradigm shift towards the 21stcentury in addressing and solving these important needs to be the true focus of the spotlight, or else theblindness of searching for nostalgia will truly become the insanity that consumes our businesses and propertyvalues in the days and weeks following this meeting.During my "interview" for the city council position last week....I entered the chambers and was met with tiredeyes and a glazed stare from council members. I was prepared to answer questions, but none were asked in my"5 minute interview." I put forward that I have experience as a global project manager and instructor. I get myhands dirty at our beaches. We have issues that need teamwork and real world, 21st century problem solving.Data and action will provide the temperance to guide us through the next 20 years of redesigning a workingCity of Huntington Beach. I don't want to see our 'Surf City' erode away into the nostalgia of the past like re-119 runs of "The Life OfReilly" or "I Love Lucy." We need real people with real world experience and realanswers to push through the obstacles into our mutually beneficial future.Lucille Ball was quoted saying:I m not funny. The writers are funny. I am BRAVE."The fact that I am not a politician should stand apart.. ..with my engineering, client service, instructional andproject management background.. .and courage. Courage to want to be part of the infrastructure solution andhelp our community for very little remuneration or thanks. I am moved to be of service to my homecommunity. Please break your glassed over stare and look at my C.V. information and background. I havedone some amazing work with amazing teams. I believe Wait Disney said it best:"It's FUN to do the IMPOSSIBLE !"I see this as a mantra to open a new level of teamwork and collaboration with business developmentpartnerships that will not only break the old worn out molds, but cast new data based processes that will alterthe algorithms and design progress to our community goals further than the Oakland Athletics performed inStory ofMoneyball.Surf City is a sleeping data asset giant...waiting to be awakened and step into the sunlight of destiny, not towait for the sun to set and its light to be consumed by the product of our problems. A new sunrise awaits us allthrough collaboration and teamwork. My commitment will hold steady in support of our destiny which requiresus all to create, develop and nurture through new ways of progress.HB is as much a data technology company as Goldman Sachs and General Electric. As much as McDonaldswas a real estate company disguised as a hamburger restaurant, the true potential ofHuntington Beach has yetto be designed. Let me help cultivate the team and process to realize this future and manifest this destiny as aself-fulfilling prophecy of data management. The forecast calls for beautiful weather on the horizon.Bob Sullivanhttps://www.bizbash.com/home/media-sallery/13323306/blu-laser-digital-llc818-857-6504Preview attachment 6-2021 Sullivan Resume-cover-reference.pdfHB Beach Facilities - 7/19/202120 photo by BobSullivan21 22 818-857-6504SypplementalComm(a)/Surfcitv-hb,orgCity.

But, last night you seemto be determined to make sure that no one else will have that opportunity. We have a representative form ofgovernment in which the citizens vote to select their representative. We now have a vacancy, so let the voterschoose their representative. Yes there is going to be some costs involved in a special election, but those fundsbelong to the citizens and would be correctly spent for a special election. Besides/ the City ofHuntington Beach is setting on a budget surplus.If you truly believe that we can not afford a special election/ then there is no costs involved in appointingGrade to fill that vacancy. She has already been approved by the voters to be become one of our leaders. Noone else has been approved by the voters to fill the existing vacancy. If you vote to deny the voters their rightto choose their representative/1 can assure you that there is a strong movement in our community that isgoing to make your position on the council as uncomfortable as they possibly can.Do the right thing.Dennis Davenport52 Switzer, DonnaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Tuesday, July 20, 2021 11:48 AMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW; About last night...From: Shayna Kamlet <Jdshayshayl@gmail.com>Sent: Tuesday/ July 20, 2021 7:38 AMTo: Carr, Kim <Kim.Carr@surfcity-hb.org>Cc: Fikes, Cathy <CFikes@5Lirfdty-hb.org>Subject: About last night...Just gave up on the illusion of trying to seem impartial or representing your constituents at all?

The Mayor and 2 others do not believe in democracy, they are working so hard behind the scenes to get the oneperson they want to sit on the throne with them. Take the vote to the citizens, THAT IS WHERE IT BELONGS"!! Howmany votes do you need to take, what kind of strong arm tactics to you intend on using in the next 7 days before youtake more votes. I pray that Barbara and Posey do not bend to your pressure.2. Barbara and Posey both wanted a special election but when it came to the final vote they folded/1 hope they showtheir constituents that they have more backbone and ethics and stick to what is right and let the citizens choose whothey want to represent them.3. Kalmickis unprofessional and out of control/ if he cannot stand the heat he should get out of the kitchen. He alsoneeds to learn what the meaning of volunteer means. Kalmick you are not a volunteer you are paid/ read the dictionary!Also, no more petty break!! Did you need that break to text with Natalie or with your puppet masters?? THis kind ofcorrupt behind the closed door activity is disgusting!4. Natalie need to put her phone down/ she is another one that is out of control and unprofessional. She needs toreveal her texts that she was making during city business. There should not be allowed any phones during the meetings,more corruption and more direction from her puppet master.5. Kalmick is insulting to those he considers /old' or "sick". Stating that anyone who is old or sick should never be electedto the city council. Who are you to tell the citizens who they should and should not vote for. You need to publiclyapologize for demeaning the older population and those who may have some illness. Disgraceful that those words cameout of a city councils mouth!6. Kalmick needs to understand that the money in the city coffers belongs to the citizens/ not him personally. He actedas though he was writing a check for a special election. When did he become 'fiscally responsible' because his patternshows that he knows nothing about fiscal responsibility.7. The Mayor in an open meeting should not be conferring with the attorney and CM in a secretive manner, ask thequestions out loud, we all deserve to hear it. What are you trying to hide???8. The bottom line is this belongs with the citizens, it does not belong with the city council, we need to choose thosewho represent us/that is what democracy is all about, learn it!!!I have never witnessed such a dog and pony show, the stifled grins, the unscheduled recesses, the unprofessional acts ofseveral sitting members. This is seeming to be the most corrupt city council this city has ever seen,run by specialinterests...POA for one...and not for the citizens. How much will a recall election cost?? That is down the pike if you donot start acting in a manner that is for all citizens (Natalie) and not just the few you represent.A very disgusted longtime resident of HB.Janet Bean55 Sent from myiPad56 Switzer, DonnaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Tuesday, July 20, 2021 11:49 AMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW: Honor The VoteFrom: dad2st@aol.com <dad2st@aol.com>Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2021 5:57 AMTo: CITY COUNCIL <dty.council@surfcity-hb.org>Subject: Honor The VoteHold a special election for city council replacement.

But I expect and demandbetter from our elected council members. The unprofessional manner, comments and attitude from several councilmembers is unacceptable.We had to turn it off because it was so painful to watch and not at all how elected officials should act/ especially on suchan important subject.As a tax payer, voter, and member of this city I fully expect those for whom I vote to represent my family and neighborsand fellow residents to actually represent us. What is going on in city hall??At this point the only responsible thing to do is to hold a special election to fill the seat. The city council failed to select areplacement and the people need to fill the seat.Our city has so many huge problems and it seems the council is continually distracted by partisan politics. The citizens ofHuntington Beach deserve far better representation than we are currently experiencing.Thank you to Mr. Peterson for seeming to be the only member to consistently attempt to do right by the people of thiscity.I think the rest of the city council would do well to remember that you work for the people of Huntington Beach, andonly the people of Huntington Beach.Please get your partisanship and your special interests out of our city and start listening to what the citizens are sayingand doing what is best for our city.

Now for the rest on our city council, there is so much to cover, but firstI want to mention the lack of decorum Natalie Moser and Dan Kalmick displayed at this meeting by engaging with the people in thegallery. This meeting was full of passion by the people who are engaged in the city business and yes there were cheers of support andboos on statements, this is part of the process. And Dan Kalmick your statement on the old people in our community will come backand haunt you, and I would hope that that drives a recall for the two of you. I found it appalling that the three of you continued on yourquest for control by denying a Free Election and the Voice of the Community. There was no surprise to me in your actions as it isclear that your only desire is to guard your Four Votes into the 2024 elections and discredit our communities desire for their voicesand votes to decide who will represent them. I am a budget hawk but your statements over your concerns of the cost ring hollow thisafter at every chance you support outside Consultants $$$$$ to do the work that are staff are capable of doing. If One Million is a costof choice and a voice it is a mear pirtance compared to your Faild Efforts with the homeless.

During that time I served on the Board of theFriends of the Children's Library, introduced Meet the Masters Programs to the Ocean View School District,was a Cub Scout Leader, participated in the Meals on Wheels Program and was a PTA Member at both MarineView Middle School and Harbour View Elementary School. I also completed the HB Citizens Academy. Mychildren are now grown but they volunteered at the Lake View School Library in the summer to help shelvebooks and assist that community in need of volunteers.I was deeply distressed to tune in to the City Council Meeting on Monday evening only to hear the audiencemembers comprised mostly of Gracey supporters talking over Council members and shouting profanity.This group of vocal supporters seemed to sway some of our Council Members in their decision to switch theirvote to favor a "special election." I was flabbergasted. This group of people only represent a small fraction ofthe HB voting population. The fact that City Council could not come to a consensus was disturbing. We do notneed to waste taxpayer dollars on a Special Election. This is not "democracy". This is pandering to a crowd ofangry people who in all the years I have attended City Council meetings have not seen many of them. Itappears that the choice is between Rhonda Bolton or JeffMorin. I ask that you do the right thing and appointRhonda Bolton. She would be a welcome change to the makeup of our city council — a woman of color in acity that has struggled with racial divide. She obviously interviewed well. I would like you all to follow theCity Charter and select the person to fill the seat that was vacated by Tito Ortiz. I am shocked by Mr. Peterson'ssummation of Mr. Ordz's tenure and treatment. Mr. Ortiz did not have the courage or the desire to fulfill hiscommitment to the citizens ofHB. This was evident when he didn't bother to read up on the requiredinformation necessary to understand the workings of a local city council. And so Mr. Peterson we "victimize"Mr. Ortiz. Ugh! What a message we send to young people. If things get tough or you don't like what's goingon - just quit, no notice.Again I ask that you please reconvene and fill the seat vacated by Mr. Ortiz who resigned with nonotice. Having a special election will cost approximately $1 million dollars that could be better spent on parks,police and fire, streets, infrastructure Just to name a few of the many improvements that $1 million plus dollarscould achieve. And as the City Clerk indicated time is of the essence. There is a very short window to do thisso what kind of an election (democracy) would this be?? As a homeowner/taxpayer I do not wish to have myhard earned dollars supporting this.Thank you.Julie KilleenHomeowner,75 HR Director/Consultant with over 25 years experience in the field of Human Resources1705 IFriml LaneHuntington Beach, California 9264976 Moore, TaniaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Wednesday, July 21, 2021 10:35 PMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW: City Council SeatFrom: Jean Rowley <mathrocks4jr@yahoo.com>Sent: Wednesday/ July 21, 2021 1:29 PMTo: CITY COUNCIL <city.council@surfcity-hb.org>Subject: City Council SeatGreetings, I am writing to request that the city council follow the charter to fill the empty seat rather than having anexpensive special election.Thank you/Jean RowleyColchester Lane, Huntington Beach resident77 Moore, TaniaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Wednesday, July 21, 2021 10:35 PMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW; No special election to fill the seat vacated by Tito Ortiz-—Original Message-—From: Linda Law <findaktaw@aol.com>Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2021 12:59 PMTo: CITY COUNCIL <city.council@surfdty-hb.org>Subject: No special election to fill the seat vacated by Tito OrtizDear Councilpersons, please follow the City Charter and select a person to fill the seat vacated by Tito Ortiz.

In consultationwith another Southeast Huntington Beach leader, I would like to now recommend the followmgsince neither side of the 3-3 split was prepared to give m to an appointment that would last until2024. A subsidiary goal of my recommendation is to avoid a costly and tumultuous specialelection in the middle of a formidable set of civic challenges that includes a resurgent COVID-19pandemic vims. I would set aside both fmalists (JeffMorm and Rhonda Bolton) and other new anduntested candidates (who all can run on their merits in the 2022 local election), and appoint areplacement Council Member from the ranks of our former mayors. This option was chosen in thewake of Council M'ember Dave Garofalo's resignation in 2001, and former mayor Grace Winchellwas appointed for the remainder of the term in 2002. Wmchell had no intention ofrunnmg foroffice again. Naturally, the Council should consider a replacement that is up on current issues andpossesses the leadership skills and drive to guide the Council forward. Ideally, the Council maychoose to consider a former mayor who actually applied to be the appomted replacement for TitoOrtiz and a former mayor whose constructive reputation and community ties would be a hugeplus.I would like to propose that former mayor and longtime Council member Jill Hardy be selectedas an interim appointment. The term could either be the remainder of the Tito Ortiz term (until2024) or the balance of a term ending with the 2022 election. Since Jill Hardy was expected toseek a new Council term in 2022, and since she is eminently qualified (having worked with four ofthe current Council previously), it would be a perfect fit that would save over a million dollars for aspecial election so close to 2022. Jill Hardy is well known to the citizenry and is respected by85 almost all residents. She is fair and honest and has shown she can work well with her Councilcolleagues.This decision would not deprive any of the serious former hopefuls who applied to fill theCouncil vacancy from the ability to run and serve in 2022. None of the other finalists (especiallythe balance of the 18 not making the current standoff selection) would have been picked m thisprocess anyway. The City Council owes it to its residents and constituents to select a replacementthat would be a credit to the Council going forward. It also owes it to its residents and constitientsto avoid million dollar expenditures that would detract from the City's finances and fiscalflexibility.Many voters clamored for change in 2020, but even more clamored for competence andstability. That is even more so the case today. After so much drama and turmoil over our last pick,the City is owed a safe selection in whom the Council and the citizenry can have confidence. I urgeyou to follow our recommendation and appoint Jill Hardy.

We do not like the direction this current CC is taking us.Jeanne ParisHB residentSent from myiPhone94 Moore, TaniaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Friday, July 23, 2021 4:10 PMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW: Code of conduct for attendees of city council meeting and other publicmeetingsFrom: Patricia Smith <patricia.smith@Juno.com>Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2021 12:37 PMTo: CIT^ COUNCIL <city.council@surfcity-hb.org>Subject: Code of conduct for attendees of city council meeting and other public meetingsHello council members,I am writing to ask that you post and enforce a code of conduct for attendees of city council meetings and anyother meetings were the public is allowed.There was far too much uncalled for disturbances created by the audience at Monday's meeting aboutappointing a replacement for the council member who resigned abmptly in June. People are and shouldcontinue to make public comments. Time limits should be enforced.When members of the audience are not at the podium, they should have to adhere to rules.. -you know, behavelike adults. There should be no shouting, loud talking, or any kind of disruptions to the proceedings. Peopleshould be escorted out of the building if, after one warning, they do not stop disrupting the proceedings.Thank you.Patricia Smithpatricia.smith(a)/iuno.com"A society that will give up a little liberty for a little order deserves neither and will lose both."

First trying to remove Mr. Ortiz then making his life so miserable that he quits has been your agenda all along inorder to get another liberal appointed to the City Council. I have never witnessed such a vocal crowd at an HB CityCouncil meeting as 1 did last night. This should be your wake-up call. You do not care what the PEOPLE think. You onlycare what YOU think.We see what's going on. Voting several times for the candidates, breaks during the meeting, saying how you would stayall night to get the appointment done, and now another Special Meeting is all part of the game. This is your attempt totry to change Ms. Delgleize's and/or Mr. Pose/s mind. I have to say that my faith in both Ms. Delgleize and Mr. Poseywas restored last night.I would like an email from all three of you stating the reasons why you have voted against a Special Election. Some ofyou ran on the platform of transparency, didn't you? Ms. Delgleize changed her mind so why are none of you willing to?And do not say money because as we heard from Mr. Posey/ the City has a surplus, and we all know that Democrats lovespending money - well, as long as it's not in pursuit of democracy. If money is such an issue, perhaps we should re-evaluate the additional salary you are all paid for this position. You work for US.t think the final straw for me last night was Ms. Moser's final self-righteous speech that she was furiously editing andhighlighting during the meeting which laid out her opinion on the fraudulent elections/ and smeared Mr. Ortiz's name asif this is all his fault. The speech was inappropriate.One statement in the speech did stand out to me however: Ms. Moser stated that by appointing Rhonda Bolton, allvoices will be heard. Even Ms. Moser's own campaign website states that she will: Ensure all voices are represented inHB. If you truly want all voices represented, then the Special Election must take place. If the Special Election does nottake place, then enjoy your final term.KathyO'Connor-Phelps25-year resident of HBFormer HB Design Review Board Member96 Moore.

Hang in there and continue to push for Grade/ or at least a special election so that the voters candecide the issue. Also, please do not support a charter review committee.

As a citizen of this city who voted in the election, Fm reallystruggling with the council hand picking a candidate and not honoring the vote of the people or allowing the people tovote. I'm not sure how it doesn't seem logical to simply allow the 4th place person to take the place. At the very least,let the people vote. How is hand picking a candidate/ representing the will of the residents of our city who you areelected to represent? It defies all logic and lacks transparency. I did not watch the meeting last night but if there wasmention of age of one of the candidates, that is disgusting and should be publicly censured. It's time to stop acting likeyou run the city at your whim and do the job you were elected to do.In the discussion about the middle income housing, it was mentioned that the property is going to make money. Thereis not a 100 percent sure way to predict that the property will make a profit. It's a terrible location and for the littleamount of profit it's being sold for currently, 1 wonder what the developer knows, that the council doesn't. 1 believe itwas mentioned that no-one would be displaced in the purchase of the property. I would hope that the apartmentswould be turned as they are vacated. I disagree with the city becoming real estate investors. While the council made itseem like a sure money maker/ there are no guarantees.As the city gets into the positive financially, i believe the prudent thing to do would be to put money in reserves andsave for any unfunded pensions that the city has liability for. Not spending money as fast as we make it.I thought the council represented the people who elect the council but it seems that that at this point, the council doeswhatever it wants without consideration of the residents. It's frustrating.100 Moore, TaniaFrom: Fikes, CathySent: Friday, July 23, 2021 4:15 PMTo: Agenda AlertsSubject: FW: open electionFrom: Darrin & Julie Curry <hbcurrys@gmail.com>Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2021 4:11 PMTo: CiT(f COUNCIL <dty.council@surfcity-hb.org>Subject: open electionDear council members,I was out of town and unable to participate in the meeting but I would like to let you know that I expect my voteto be counted by having an open election for the open council seat.Thank You,Julie Williamsresident101
