Committee.(Marian Lee, Assistant City Manager)
RECOMMENDATION

BACKGROUND
A General Plan is the local government’s long-term blueprint for the community’s vision of future growth.Each
city is required by California law to have a General Plan to guide its future land use decisions.
A report regarding the General Plan purpose,scope and approximate two-year planning process was presented
to City Council on August 8,2018.At that meeting,staff was given direction to proceed with this effort and
there was substantive discussion about the General Plan Community Advisory Committee (GPCAC)that would
be newly formed for the General Plan update.The GPCAC would be expected to meet regularly during the
preparation of the General Plan and advise staff and City Council on notable matters related to the General
Plan.
The City Council,at its September 2,2018 meeting,authorized the structure of the GPCAC as a ten-member
committee with two alternates comprised of the following:
·Planning Commission (2 members)
·Parks & Recreation Commission (1 member)
·District Community Resident (5 members, 1 per each City District)
·Business Member (2 members, 1 large and 1 small)
The Planning and the Parks and Recreation commissions were asked to select their representatives.The
Planning Commission appointed Commissioners Julie Ann Murphy and Sam Shihadeh to serve on the GPCAC
with Alan Wong as the alternate.The Parks &Recreation Commission appointed Kristy Camacho to serve on
the GPCAC with Betty Battaglia as the alternate.
For the District Community Resident and Business Members,staff opened the GPCAC recruitment to the
public from September 17,2018 through November 30,2018.Staff received one large business applicant,eight
small business applicants and 19 resident applicants.Review,interviews and appointment of the business and
resident applicants spread over two Special City Council meetings (December 17,2018 and December 18,
2018). Business applications will be reviewed at this meeting.

City Council is being requested to appoint one large and one small business member.
Each applicant is identified by time slot on the agenda for the interview.
