ANALYSIS:
Every two years, the City Council assigns the Mayor or the Members of the Council to represent Azusa
on various outside Agency Boards and Committees. Some appointments are made by Resolution and
require that the Mayor serve in this capacity, and others are established by a majority vote of the Mayor
and City Council. From time to time there are changes that must be made, as some agencies require
regional representation for which appointments are made by several cities. This year, there have been
no changes in the number of agency boards and committees which require City representation and
Council appointment.
Appointments to outside Agency Boards and Committees are generally done every two years in March
following an election. City Council approved moving the municipal election to November in order to
remain consistent with state law and the state’s general election. Council appointments are now to be
made in February following a November Municipal Election and Mayor Pro-Tem rotation in January.
The following Sub-Committee and Ad-Hoc Committees are currently established:
