The city manager, the city recorder and the court clerk/secretary are designated as authorized to attest to the mayor’s signature. (Ord. 1969 §1(part), 2013; Ord. 1838 §1, 2003; Ord. 1484 §1, 1983).

2.02.020 Appointment of liaisons.

For each commission or committee established by ordinance or resolution, the mayor, with approval by the council, shall appoint a council member as liaison. Council members may serve as liaison on more than one commission or committee.

A. Liaisons shall be appointed at the first meeting of each calendar year, or as soon thereafter as practicable, and shall serve until the first meeting of the next calendar year; provided, however, that liaisons may be removed or reassigned at any time by the mayor upon approval of the council. In addition, a council liaison can only be a sitting council member and upon expiration of any council member’s term, or upon resignation, removal, or death, the liaison’s seat shall be immediately declared vacant, and a sitting council member appointed as a replacement.

B. Liaisons shall not have the right to vote and shall report periodically to the council on the activities of the commission or committee.

C. Unless otherwise specified, a majority of the members of a commission or committee shall constitute a quorum. The liaison shall not be considered a member of a commission or committee. For purposes of determining whether a quorum exists in a meeting of a commission or committee, however, the liaison may be counted.

D. Where a liaison is counted to reach a quorum, a unanimous vote of the members present is necessary for any commission or committee decision. (Ord. 1954 §2, 2012).
