Staff recommends that the City Council review and approve by motion the <br /> posting of the 2015 Local Appointments List. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> California Government Code Section 54970 et seq., known as the Maddy Act, is intended to <br /> raise the awareness of members of the community about volunteer opportunities on local <br /> boards, commissions, and committees. The Act requires the City Council, by December 31 of <br /> each year, to prepare and post a list of"...all regular and ongoing boards, commissions, and <br /> committees which are appointed by the legislative body of the local agency...with the name of <br /> the incumbent appointee, the date of appointment, the date the term expires, and the <br /> necessary qualifications for the position." <br /> Analysis <br /> With the creation of the Arts Commission in 2014, the City now has ten (10) regular boards <br /> and commissions whose members serve at the pleasure of the City Council. The terms of <br /> most board and commission members terminate upon the expiration of the regular term of the <br /> Mayor or the Councilmember representing the Council district from which the member was <br /> appointed. <br /> The 2015 Local Appointments List includes the following upcoming vacancies: <br /> • At-large members and members representing Districts 1, 3, and 5, with terms expiring <br /> on December 31, 2014 <br /> • All youth members, with terms expiring on August 31, 2015 <br /> City of San Leandro Page 1 Printed on 12/9/2014 <br />
