RESOLUTION NO. 18-7154
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HERMOSA
BEACH, CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING A POLICY AND VOTING
PROCEDURES FOR BOARD AND COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS
WHEREAS, members of the Boards and Commissions of the City of Hermosa Beach are
appointed by the Hermosa Beach City Council to four-year terms (with the exception of the Board
of Appeals, or unless otherwise specified); and
WHEREAS, the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code specifies the qualifications for each of
the City's Boards and Commissions, including whether members must be qualified electors of the
City or bona fide residents, and appointees serve in a voluntary capacity, without compensation,
providing a valuable service to the entire community; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with established procedure, upcoming term expirations and
unscheduled vacancies are brought to the City Council's attention by the City Clerk for direction
on advertising to fill the seats. Unless otherwise directed, a notice inviting applications is placed
on the City's website, posted in the usual Civic Center locations, sent to residents who signed up
for e-notifications, and published twice in the Easy Reader newspaper, with a specified application
filing deadline, after which the City Clerk reports back to the Council for the scheduling of
applicant interviews and appointment; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires a consistent voting policy for making Board and
Commission appointments to eliminate the confusion created over the years by employing
different voting systems at different meetings (voice voting by consensus or formal motion, paper
voting with or without ranking).
