CITY OF DUBLIN AGENDA STATEMENT CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: December 12, 1994 SUBJECT: Appointment of city council Representatives to the Dougherty Regional Fire Authority Board of Directors (Report Prepared by: Lou Ann Riera-Texeira, Assistant to the city Manager) EXHIBITS: None RECOMMENDATION~ 2) Discuss appointments. Mayor should announce appointments and a motion would be in order to confirm the appointments. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None DESCRIPTION: Government Code Section 40605 requires that the Mayor make all appointments to boards, commissions and committees with the approval of the city council "unless otherwise specifically provided by statute." Members of the Dublin city Council participate in a number of commissions, committees and boards. Appointments to most of these boards and commissions will be made in January of 1995. In addition, the city is party to several joint powers agreements which require appointment of one or more council member(s) to represent the city of Dublin. Included among these is representation on the Board of Directors of the Dougherty Regional Fire Authority (DRFA). The DRFA is a joint powers agency providing fire services to the city of Dublin and to a portion of the City of San Ramon. The DRFA is a separate legal entity with a Board of Directors comprised of three representatives from each member city council (i.e., Dublin and San Ramon). The DRFA Board of Directors meets regularly to discuss issues relating to fire service. The Authority is currently involved in a number of significant issues which will require Board action at its regular meeting of December 19, 1994. As a result of the recent election, only councilmember Moffatt remains as a DRFA Board member. consequently, the Board lacks a quorum to conduct DRFA business. Pursuant to Section 2.7 of the joint powers agreement creating the DRFA, three members of the Dublin City council and two alternates should be appointed to the DRFA Board. It is recommended at this time that the Mayor, with the confirmation of the city Council, appoint three members of the City Council and two alternates to the DR FA Board of Directors. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COPIES TO: ITEM NO. 8.1 CITY CLERK FILE ~ -_.~--~
