DATE: August 20, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Dominic Lazzaretto, City Manager
By: Linda Rodriguez, City Clerk
SUBJECT: MAYOR’S APPOINTMENTS OF CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS TO CITY
BOARDS, COMMISSIONS, AND OUTSIDE AGENCIES
CEQA: Not a Project
Recommendation: Receive and File
SUMMARY
According to the Arcadia City Charter, every nine and one-half months (9 ½), the City
Council reorganizes, and a new Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem are appointed. Following the
City Council Reorganization, the Mayor has the option to make new appointments to City
boards, commissions, and outside agencies. The City Council reorganization occurred on
July 16, 2024.
The attached Council Member Liaison List reflects the various City boards, commissions,
and outside agencies that City Council Members serve on. Mayor Cao has appointed
each City Council Member to serve as either the Delegate or the Alternate (when
applicable) for seven City boards and commissions and 11 outside governmental
agencies, beginning on August 21, 2024.
Based on the recent City Council Reorganization and due to the General Municipal
Election to be held on November 5, 2024, for the election of members of the City Council
in Districts 1 and 4, the next liaison appointments and/or re-appointments are projected
to occur in December 2024. It is recommended that the City Council receive and file the
Mayor’s appointments of City Council Members to City boards, commissions, and outside
agencies, beginning August 21, 2024.
