RECOMMENDATION:
1. Consider waiving the procedures in Resolution No. 18804 Section 7(b), to allow for the
City Council as a whole, to participate in the screening and interview of applicants for the
Historic Site Preservation Board, Measure "J" Oversight Commission and the Planning
Commission.
2. Waive the procedures in Resolution No. 18804 Section 7(b), that provides for the Mayor
to select and participate in all subcommittees.

applicants for the following Commissions and Boards:
Administrative Appeals Board Personnel Board
Airport Commission Public Arts Commission
Board of Appeals Rent Review Commission
Board of Library Trustees Sustainability Commission
Human Rights Commission VillageFest Board
Parks and Recreation Commission
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
Each year the City Council selects two-member ad hoc City Council Subcommittees to interview
and screen candidates for the City's Commissions and Boards, with the exception of the
Measure "J" Oversight Commission, Historic Site Preservation Board and the Planning
Commission, which the City Council has interviewed candidates as a whole at an open and
public meeting.
The ad hoc City Council Subcommittees interview and screen applicants, and make
recommendations to the entire City Council; and members of Commissions and Boards are
appointed by three affirmative votes of the City Council.
