Staff Report
REPORT 19-0786
Authority in Health and Safety Code Section 4730. The presiding officer of the governing body
of each city within the district is a member of the Board of Directors, and another
councilmember shall be appointed as an alternate director to act as a member of the district
board in place of the presiding officer during such person’s absence, inability, or refusal to act.
Background:
At the mayor/council reorganization on December 7, 2017, the Council acted to temporarily suspend
the long-time policy of a 9½-month mayoral term and increase those terms to approximately one year
to correspond with the five-year terms of office for those elected in 2017 and 2019. The Council
action to extend the terms of elected officials was taken to accommodate the City’s election date
change from November of odd-numbered years to November of even-numbered years to coincide
with statewide general elections starting in 2022 (ordinance adopted 12/13/16).
Re-assigning committee delegates/alternates to the remaining committees (consistent with the
Council policy to maintain permanent representatives whenever possible) or re-affirming current
committee assignments, along with adding or deleting committees as appropriate, may be either
handled this evening or postponed to a future meeting.
The attached list of current committee assignments has been updated as needed to reflect changes
made throughout the year. The City Clerk will revise the list to reflect the Mayor, Mayor pro tem and
all committee changes made this evening if any, including the Public Communications subcommittee,
which automatically consists of the Mayor and Mayor pro tempore.
Please note that any delegate/alternate change to the South Bay Cities Council of Governments
(SBCCOG) requires the adoption of a resolution, which would be presented as a consent calendar
item at the next meeting.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact.

The Down The Downtown Subcommittee was established after a high profile incident occurred on the plaza that

brought in to supplement the police presence on the plaza. The incident highlighted the finite number of
City employees available to interact with and control the often rowdy and intoxicated patrons regularly
found in the downtown area during late night hours. A more comprehensive solution needed to be
developed, so the Subcommittee has embarked on a review of prior strategies employed downtown and is
tasked with identifying and expanding what works, developing new ideas and strategies to enhance the
environment and leveraging technology where appropriate to assist with enhancing safety and security.
