Dear Commission Secretaries:
Happy New Year! This is a reminder to agendize Commission Officer elections for your
February meetings.
Please refer to pages 24 -26 of your Commissioners' Manual for more details.
Please let us know as soon as possible after your elections take place, so that we may
inform your officers of their training requirement in a timely manner. Annual training is
required of all officers. The training video must be viewed and the Affirmation of
Completion must be filed with the City Clerk no later than 60 calendar days from the
date of election. Officers who do not meet this deadline will forfeit their office.
Pgs 24-26:
C. COMMISSION ORGANIZATION
1) Election of Officers and Term of Office
Unless otherwise provided by ordinance3, the chairperson and vice chairperson are elected by the majority of the commission for a one-year term and hold office until their successors are elected or until their terms as members of the commission expire. No commissioner shall serve as chairperson for more than two consecutive years. There is no term limit for Vice-Chair. The annual election of commission officers should occur during the month of February. The results of the vote should be publicly announced and the vote recorded in the minutes.
If an established election schedule has been set for the election of officers, any variation from that schedule results in a vacancy or interim period, not an extended
term for the officer. Terms of office for officers are determined by the date the election regularly occurs, not by the date it may have actually occurred.
Example: The Chair is elected in February 2012. The Chair resigns in April 2012. A new Chair is elected in May 2012. The newly elected Chair will serve from May 2012 to February 2013, when the next regular election is held.
2) Mandatory Annual Training for Officers
Chairpersons and vice chairpersons are required to complete mandatory annual training on: a) the parliamentary procedure of conducting and presiding over meetings according to the Brown Act and City policy; b) the role of the commission and its organization; and c) the commission's relationship to the City Council, the City Manager, the secretary, other commissions, outside agencies, and the general public.
Transportation Commission B4 2/15/2018
Page 2 of 3
Resolution No. 63,876–N.S. was adopted by City Council to implement video training for commission officers to satisfy the requirements of Resolution No. 60,531-N.S.
The Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson may view, in its entirety, a training video obtained from the City Clerk Department or the training video for this purpose posted on the City Clerk website. Upon completion, the Chairperson or Vice- Chairperson must file with the City Clerk an Affirmation of Completion.
The training video must be viewed and the Affirmation of Completion must be filed with the City Clerk no later than 60 calendar days from the date of election as Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson. Failure to complete the video training and file the Affirmation of Completion within 60 days of election will result in the immediate forfeiture of the position of Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson.
While not mandatory for commissioners other than the Chair and Vice-Chair, completion of Commissioner training is encouraged for all commissioners.
3) Duties of Officers
The chairperson, or in her/his absence, the vice chairperson, performs the following duties:
Presides at all meetings of the commission and ensures that the work of the commission is accomplished. To this end the chairperson must exert sufficient control of the meeting to eliminate irrelevant, repetitious or otherwise unproductive discussion. At the same time the chairperson must ensure that all viewpoints are heard and are considered in a fair and impartial manner. The Chair cannot make rules related to the conduct of meetings or commission procedure without approval of the full commission. C. Commission Organization
Appoints commission members to temporary subcommittees and informal bodies subject to the approval of the full commission.
Approves the agenda prior to distribution. This is limited to the structure and order of the agenda and does not grant the Chair the authority to remove items submitted by commissioners or staff.
Signs correspondence on behalf of the commission.
Represents the commission before the City Council with the formal approval of the commission by motion and vote.
Approves commission reports to Council.
The Chair or a quorum of the commission may call a special meeting. The Chair may also cancel a regular meeting.
Transportation Commission B4 2/15/2018
Page 3 of 3
Performs other duties necessary or customary to the office. 4) Transfer of Chair
In the absence of the chairperson or his/her inability to act, the vice chairperson presides in place of the chairperson. In the event of the absence or the inability to act of both the chairperson and the vice chairperson, the remaining members elect one of their members to act as temporary chairperson.
If a chairperson is terminated for any reason, the office is vacated and the rules for transfer would apply. If a vice chairperson is terminated, the office is vacated and new election would be held to fill the office. If the officer is reappointed she or he shall not resume the office and must be re-elected to the office by the majority of the membership.
