A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL
BEACH SUPPORTING A CHANGE IN THE VOTING MEMBERS
OF THE GOVERNING BOARD OF THE LOS CERRITOS
WETLANDS AUTHORITY
WHEREAS, The Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority was established in 2005
pursuant to the Joint Exercise of Powers Act, and is comprised of
the following agencies:
^ San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains
Conservancy;
^ State Coastal Conservancy;
^ City of Seal Beach;
^ City of Long Beach.
WHEREAS, It has been the experience of the City of Seal Beach that the
representatives of the RMC and Coastal Conservancy do
experience difficulties in being able to attend meetings, which can
delay important decisions relative to the tasks of the Authority, and
the requested amendment will address that concern; and
WHEREAS, The Executive Officer of the Rivers and Mountains Conservancy
has indicated that over the past several years local elected officials
and/or employees of the member cities have both the interest and
experience critical to the success of the LCWA. Therefore, the
restriction regarding this appointment is not in the best interest in
meeting the objectives established in the agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE:
Section 1. The Seal Beach City Council hereby approves the proposed
amendment to the "Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement" to read as follows.
