CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS - AUGUST 1999

Recommendation :

It is recommended that the City Council appoint delegates and alternates to the various committees (see attached updated list), consistent with the policy of maintaining permanent representation whenever possible, and delete any obsolete temporary subcommittees as appropriate.

Background :

At its meeting of June 22, 1999, the City Council acted to appoint the following:

- Mayor (term ending Tuesday, April 11, 2000): Julie Oakes

- Mayor Pro Tempore (same term as Mayor): J.R. Reviczky

- L.A. County City Selection Committee Delegate: Mayor Oakes

- South Bay Cities Sanitation District Delegate: Mayor Oakes

Alternate: Mayor Pro Tempore Reviczky

- Inglewood Fire Training Authority Delegate: Mayor Oakes

Alternate: Mayor Pro Tempore Reviczky

The appointment of delegates and alternates for the remainder of the City Council committee assignments was brought back for Council consideration at its meeting of July 13, but due to the lateness of the hour and the absence of one Council member, was postponed to July 27. Due to the absence of two Council members at the meeting of July 27, the item was postponed to tonight's meeting. The September 1998 committee-assignment list (attached) has been updated to include the changes made at the June 22 meeting and to add to the list the existing Valley Park subcommittee (Oakes and Reviczky), pursuant to direction by the Mayor at the July 27 meeting. Council members are requested to contact Mayor Oakes prior to the August 10 meeting concerning any preferences with regard to committee assignments.

Please note that the appointed delegate and alternate should be the same for both the South Bay Corridor Study Steering Committee and the South Bay Cities Association since their meetings occur back-to-back on the same day and at the same location.

Also, two of the committees require resolutions for the appointments of delegates and alternates. Councilmember Edgerton is the current delegate and Finance Director Viki Copeland the current alternate for the Independent Cities Lease Finance Authority (ICLFA). Councilmember Edgerton is also the current delegate for the Independent Cities Risk Management Association (ICRMA); Personnel/Risk Management Director Michael Earl is the designated alternate, and Finance Director Viki Copeland and is the substitute alternate representative who would serve in the absence of the appointed delegate and alternate. If assignment changes are made this evening with regard to either of those committees, an appropriate resolution will be placed on the consent calendar of the September 14 agenda for Council adoption.

Following the assignments of delegates and alternates, letters will be sent to the appropriate boards and committees, and the list of newly appointed delegates and alternates will be forwarded to Council.
