cant <br />2019 Charter Review Committee — Conce <br />0 U <br />VI 9.1 <br />W 4 <br />Substantive <br />/Non - <br />Substantive <br />Change <br />z <br />v) <br />Issues and Proposed Changes <br />Issue: Language currently does not clarify that Councilmembers are elected and nominated by registered <br />voters from his/her ward. <br />Positions: <br />• Language should be clarified. <br />Recommendation: Amend language to clarify that members of the City Council are nominated and <br />elected from voters of the Ward. <br />Proposed Language: <br />"(b) The members of the City Council shall be nominated and elected by wards by the registered voters <br />of the respective wards only. [...]" <br />Vote: 14 Affirmative, 1 Negative (July 8, 2019) <br />Issue: A language change to reference consolidation of Mayor and City Council runoff elections with <br />the "statewide general election" brings the Charter into compliance with State law and accommodates <br />any future change in statewide general election dates. An exception is needed to allow Wards 2, 4, and <br />6 runoff election of November 2, 2021, to occur in an odd -number year. All City Council elections <br />thereafter are transitioning to even -numbered years. Current paragraphs (f), (g), and (h) are outdated and <br />proposed for deletion. <br />Positions: <br />• Amend Charter to comply with State law. <br />• Wait until outcome of Redondo Beach case vs. State regarding applicability of State law to charter <br />cities. <br />Recommendation: Amend runoff election language to comply with State law. <br />H <br />�y10 <br />E-0E� <br />w o ct 0 3 <br />�y12 <br />E-0E� <br />w <br />o <br />vs <br />0 <br />4,1 <br />ct <br />3 <br />o <br />1 <br />rn <br />^ <br />.-. <br />Page 112 <br />
