CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: '
DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: CITY DELEGATE AND ALTERNATE REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE
2024 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
GOVERNMENTS' GENERAL ASSEMBLY
DEPARTMENT: City Manager's Office
PRESENTER: Masis Hagobian
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council appoint a Delegate and an Alternate to the 2024 Southern California Association of
Governments' General Assembly.
BACKGROUND
The Southern California Association of Governments (SLAG) region encompasses six counties
(Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura) and 191 cities in an
area covering more than 38,000 square miles. The SCAG develops long-range regional
transportation plans including sustainable communities' strategy and growth forecast
components, regional transportation improvement programs, regional housing needs allocations,
and a portion of the South Coast Air Quality management plans.
The SCAG recently released an update to its long-range vision for transportation and housing
within the six -county region, known as Connect SoCal. The updated programs and policies
included in Connect SoCal will likely be the focal point of discussions and presentations at this
year's General Assembly.
Each year, the City Council appoints a Delegate and an Alternate to SCAG's General Assembly,
which will be held on May 2-3, 2024, in Palm Desert. A municipality's Delegate and Alternate
must be an elected member of that jurisdiction's governing body. Every member jurisdiction
within the SCAG region is requested to appoint a Delegate, who has the opportunity to vote on
any proposed changes to SCAG bylaws or propose and vote upon resolutions to be considered by
SCAG's membership at the General Assembly. In the absence of the Delegate, the Alternate may
represent the jurisdiction's governing body at the General Assembly.
