Summary

The Joint Exercise of Powers Act authorizes 2 or more public agencies, by agreement, to form a joint powers authority to exercise any power common to the contracting parties, as specified. Existing law authorizes the agreement to set forth the manner by which the joint powers authority will be governed. Existing law authorizes the creation of the San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust, a joint powers authority, by the County of Los Angeles and any or all of the cities within the jurisdiction of the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, with the stated purpose of funding housing to assist the homeless population and persons and families of extremely low, very low, and low income within the San Gabriel Valley. Existing law requires the San Gabriel Valley Regional Housing Trust to be governed by a board of directors that serve 2-year terms, and requires 7 of the 9 members to also be a member of the governing board of the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments that represents either a city that is a party to the joint powers agreement or a specified County of Los Angeles board of supervisors district that is a party to the joint powers agreement. This bill would instead require 7 of the 9 board members to be either a local elected official from the County of Los Angeles or a member of a city council from a city that is a member the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, and to represent either a city that is a party to the joint powers agreement or a specified County of Los Angeles board of supervisors district that is a party to the joint powers agreement. The bill would require each member of the board of directors that represents a city that is a party to the joint powers agreement be a resident of a different city. The bill would require that staggered terms for the board of directors be established, as specified. Existing law requires that 2 of the members be experts in homeless or housing policy. This bill would set forth eligibility criteria for these experts, including that they have at least 5 years of experience in homeless or housing policy.
