Request for Reconsideration of a Portion of Item 3 from the May 5, 2021 City Council Formal Meeting
Description
Request for reconsideration for a portion of Item 3 from the May 5, 2021 City Council Formal Meeting pertaining to the Ethics Commission appointments.
Report
Summary
At the May 5, 2021 Formal City Council meeting, the City Council adopted a portion of Item 3 - Mayor and Council Appointments to Boards and Commissions. However, the vote of the City Council on Ethics Commission appointments was 5-3, with Councilmembers DiCiccio, Guardado and Stark dissenting. Therefore, the motion relating to Ethics Commission appointments failed to pass because pursuant to City Code 2-53(C), seven affirmative votes were required to appoint members to the Ethics Commission.
Pursuant to the Rules of Council Proceedings Rule 7(l), the portion of Item 3 from the May 5, 2021 Formal Council Meeting regarding Ethics Commission appointments is being placed on the May 19, 2021 agenda in accordance with a written request from Councilwoman Debra Stark filed with the City Clerk on May 5, 2021 (Attachment A).
If this request is approved, the City Council will reconsider the Ethics Commission appointments. If this request is not approved, the City Council will not reconsider the item and the original action on the item will stand.
