RECOMMENDATION:
Staff requests that the City Council consider the following recommendations:
1. Make appointments and reappointments to fill vacancies on the following
committees and board:
• Cultural Arts Committee
4 regular member vacancies (2 two-year terms and 2 one-year terms) and 2
alternate member vacancies (1 two-year term and 1 one-year term); and
• Historical Preservation Committee
6 regular member vacancies (5 two-year terms and 1 one-year term) and 2
alternates (2 two-year terms); and
• Housing and Public Service Grant Committee
3 regular member vacancies — this reduces the committee membership to 9
regular members (3 two-year terms); and
• Costa Mesa Senior Corporation Board of Directors
2 representative vacancies (2 one-year terms).
BACKGROUND:
Council Policy 000-2 (Attachment 3) pertaining to Council appointed committees, notes
that the expiration of all committee terms shall be held annually in April. Also, Council
appointed committees would be reduced to nine regular members and two alternates
through attrition.
Currently, there are vacancies on the above referenced committees and board due either
to term expirations or resignations. New members have been solicited through press
releases and news releases on the City website.
For this spring recruitment period, there are a total of 19 vacancies, consisting of regular
and alternate positions and 22 applications were received.

Subject: RE: Committee Appointments
Dear Michelle Bruce,
With regrets, I must withdraw my name from candidacy for the Cultural Arts committee.
Other family commitments have surfaced which I find take precedence over this service at this time.
Please relay my regrets to the City and the City Clerk for the opportunity to engage in serving the city.
I'm sure there are more citizens willing to step up.
With regards,
Corinne Stover
