MEMBERS
DEPARTMENT: Planning and Economic Development
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Redevelopment Agency to appoint no less than 13 and no more than 15 Newhall Redevelopment
Committee members for two or four year terms.
BACKGROUND
On May 11, 2004 the Redevelopment Agency voted to establish Committee norms for the
Newhall Redevelopment Committee. Within these norms the Agency established four-year terms
with no term limits for the Newhall Redevelopment Committee commencing in January 2005. At
the same time, the Agency made the decision to re-evaluate all members of the committee, and
open the process for new member consideration.
Fifteen of the current sixteen Newhall Redevelopment Committee members submitted their
names for re -appointment to the Committee. In addition, in the open process for new member
consideration, four new applications for appointment were received.
The Redevelopment Agency members will evaluate the current members based on answers to a
questionnaire submitted by the committee members. The criteria for re -appointment is based on
length of time served on the Committee, sub -committee involvement and vision for the
redevelopment project area.
New applicants for the Committee submitted the standard application form with three letters of
recommendation attached. The criteria for appointment is based on the information in this
application which includes the applicants involvement in the community and their vision for the
project area.

As established by the Committee Norms, the Agency will appoint new members every two years
for reappointment. At the February 8, 2005 meeting a lottery will establish which of the newly
designated committee members will be serving two-year or four-year terms. This one time
random designation of two or four year terms is necessary to install staggered terms for the
committee members insuring continuity within the Committee structure.
