CC RESOLUTION 4506RESOLUTION NO. 4506
A RESOLUTION OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO
SUPPORTING AB 391 (LIEU)
WHICH ENHANCES MUNICIPAL REPRESENTATION
ON THE SCAQMD BOARD OF DIRECTORS
BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of El Segundo as follows
SECTION 1 The City Council finds as follows
A It is in the interest of all municipal governments that cities be
equitably represented on policy - making regional boards,
B The current number of municipal representatives on the South
Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) does not fully
recognize cities in the South Bay and Westside Sectors of Los
Angeles County and places the cities of Calabasas and Malibu in
what is identified by statute as the Eastern Sector of the SCAQMD
jurisdiction,
C. Providing separate seats for a city within the Western Sector and
the City of Los Angeles will ensure that the population of the City of
Los Angeles and the populations of smaller cities in the Western
and Eastern Sectors are represented on the SCAQMD Board
commensurate with their populations,
D Realigning cities within Los Angeles County into sectors which are
more geographically equitable is significant and important to
regional policy decision - making;
E The current proposal would retain the expertise of the Sacramento
appointees,
F The current proposal has received the support of the South Bay
Cities Council of Governments, the Las Virgenes- Malibu Council of
Governments, the Gateway Council of Governments, Westside
Cities Council of Governments, the League of California Cities, Los
Angeles County Division, the Contract Cities Association, the
Independent Cities Association and the City of Los Angeles;
SECTION 2 The City of El Segundo supports AB 391 by Assemblymember Ted
Lieu which requires a change in membership of the SCAQMD Board to add 1
additional municipal member for the Western Sector of the County of Los
Angeles
SECTION 3; The City Clerk is directed to certify the adoption of this Resolution,
record this Resolution in the book of the City's original resolutions, and make a
minute of the adoption of the Resolution in the City Council's records and the
minutes of this meeting
SECTION 4 This Resolution will become effective immediately upon adoption
and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded
