DATE: November 26, 2019
SUBJECT: LOCAL APPOINTMENTS LIST
DEPARTMENT: Administrative Services
PRESENTER: Mary Cusick
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council approve the Local Appointments List and designate all branches of the Santa
Clarita Public Library to receive a copy of the list.
BACKGROUND
Section 54970 et seq. of the Government Code, also known as "The Maddy Act," takes into
consideration a vast and largely untapped reservoir of talent which exists among the citizenry
that frequently is not aware of the opportunities for participation on local regulatory and advisory
boards and commissions. For that reason, the Maddy Act was enacted for maximum public
awareness of appointments to be made by the Governor, the City Council, or other legislative
bodies.
Government Code Section 54972 requires that, on or before December 31 of each year, the
legislative body, or City Council, must cause to be prepared a list of appointments of all ongoing
boards, commissions, and committees which are appointed by the City Council. The list must
include which terms will expire during the next calendar year, with the name of the incumbent
appointee, the date of appointment, the date the term expires, and the necessary qualifications for
the position. Section 54973 requires that the legislative bodies designate the public library with
the largest service population within the jurisdiction to receive a copy of the list.
In accordance with these provisions, and to make the information more readily available to the
public, the City Clerk will cause to be posted at all branches of the Santa Clarita Public Library
the attached Local Appointments List before December 31, 2019.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
