Cost Center: 1021
For Agenda of: January 14, 2020
Placement: Appointment
Estimated Time: 5 Minutes
FROM: Greg Hermann, Deputy City Manager
Prepared By: Teresa Purrington, City Clerk
SUBJECT: COUNCIL LIAISON SUBCOMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS 2020
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Council Liaison Subcommittee assignments for the calendar year of 2020. (Attachment
A)
DISCUSSION
Every year Council Members submit their list of requested Subcommittee assignments. Mayor
Harmon and Vice Mayor Gomez reviewed the past several years’ appointments and recommend
the Council Liaison Subcommittee assignments in Attachment A.
As in past years, automatic rotation for all technical and regional committees is not being
recommended. The recommended appointments allow for continuity where appropriate as well
as permitting Council Members to develop a higher level of expertise for some of the more
complex committees.
Policy Context
Council Policies and Procedures and the Advisory Body Handbook prescribe the method of
Council Liaison Subcommittee assignments:
The Mayor and Vice Mayor shall submit recommendations to the full
Council rotating nominations for Council Member Subcommittees, thereby
ensuring an opportunity for each member to serve as liaison at least once on
each advisory body when possible. When terms of office do not allow each
member to serve once, members with greatest seniority shall have first right
of selection (CP&P 6.5.2, ABH III, C, 6).
Council Policies and Procedures defines the role, purpose and attendance of the Council Liaison
as:
Council liaisons do not serve as ex-officio members of the advisory bodies,
but rather as a conduit to express the position of the Council and to gain a
better understanding of the issues considered by the advisory body. (CP&P
6.1.2) The purpose of the liaison assignment is to facilitate communication

Item #2
between the Council and advisory body. (CP&P 6.1.3) From time to time,
attend advisory body meetings for observation purposes only. Liaison
members should be sensitive to the fact that they are not participating
members of the advisory body but are there rather to create a linkage
between the City Council and advisory body. (CP&P 6.1.6)
Public Engagement
This is an administrative item to implement existing adopted policies and thus no outside public
engagement was completed on these appointments. Public comment can be provided to the City
Council through written correspondence prior to the meeting and through public testimony at the
meeting.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this
report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378.
