Subject:
Submitted by Councilmember Burns - Appointments to Boards and Commissions
Recommended Action:
Any Councilmember with more than one appointee to a Board or Commission will need to select a
single appointee moving forward. Anyone Board Member or Commissioner who is not selected by the
Council Member, will be excused. This is intended to provide a more efficient Board and Commission
to operate as the Commissions are designed.
Direct the City Manager to facilitate the adjusting of Boards and Commissions such that those with
direct Councilmember appointments be reduced or limited to a 7-member Board or Commission -
one appointee for each Councilmember and no more. If any Resolutions or other Council action is
required to make this modification, return to Council at the next regular meeting with whatever
approvals are necessary from Council.

Subject: City Commissions and Boards Item 23-045
Last year there was controversy over nominees to the Historic Resources Board. Candidates were on an agenda
and then the item was pulled.
That prompted me to look at the bylaws of the Historic Resources Board and other commissions. Despite a
revamp of the City's boards and commissions under Mr. Chi there seems to be no standardization of bylaws and
authorities. For example the Historic Resource Board has a role in the nomination process of its members. In
that you are currently looking at the composition of commissions, please take a look at their bylaws and
authorities and intended role.
Thank you.
