Summary

Existing law creates a city selection committee in each county that consists of 2 or more incorporated cities for the purpose of appointing city representatives to boards, commissions, and agencies. Under existing law, a quorum for a city selection committee requires a majority of the number of the incorporated cities within the county entitled to representation on the city selection committee. Existing law requires a city selection committee meeting to be postponed or adjourned to a subsequent time and place whenever a quorum is not present at the meeting. This bill, for the city selection committee in the County of Los Angeles, would reduce the quorum requirement to 13 of all member cities within the county for a meeting that was postponed to a subsequent time and place because a quorum was not present, as long as the agenda is limited to items that appeared on the immediately preceding agenda where a quorum was not established. Existing law requires a city selection committee to conduct regular meetings at the times specified by the committee in its rules and regulations, and to meet upon the call of its chairperson. Existing law authorizes the chairperson of the committee to call a special meeting of the committee at any time and requires the chairperson to call a special meeting upon the written request of 50% of the members of the city selection committee. This bill, for the city selection committee in the County of Los Angeles, would authorize a city selection committee meeting to be conducted by teleconferencing and electronic means. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Los Angeles.
