SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA CLARITA, AMENDING THE MUNICIPAL CODE
RELATING TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND PARKS,
RECREATION AND COMMUNITY SERVICES COMMISSION
COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES
DEPARTMENT: Administrative Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council introduce and pass to second reading an Ordinance entitled, An Ordinance of the
City Council of the City of Santa Clarita, Amending the Municipal Code Relating to the Planning
Commission and Parks, Recreation and Community Services Commission Compensation and
Expenses.
BACKGROUND
Since 1988, various ordinances have amended Sections 2.26.080 and 2.28.090 of the Municipal
Code to adjust the rate of compensation for the City's Planning Commission and Parks,
Recreation and Community Services Commission. Historically, since the City's incorporation in
1987, compensation for each individual member of the City's Planning Commission and Parks,
Recreation and Community Services Commission have been concurrently adjusted in year 1989,
1991, and 1996.
At this time, staff recommends amending the Municipal Code to reflect language that enables the
City Council to adjust Commission compensation rates by resolution, from time to time, as
appropriate. hi the event that the Council concurs with this recommended action and passes this
proposed ordinance to second reading and adoption, it is staffs intention to prepare a resolution
that will allow the City Council to consider a potential adjustment in compensation for both
Commissions. Staff anticipates that this recommended adjustment in compensation would
()(-Cl1,Ka0CC--26F -S-SCd 4x-'C')vt4'- re&J"I'67y
reflect Consumer Price Index inflation since the City's last Commission compensation
adjustment in 1996, and would be effective July 1, 2004.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the approval of this item.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
1. Do not approve this Ordinance.
2. Other action as determined by Council.
