CityCouncil | 2015-01-21 | 20 | Mayor Spencer inquired if Councilmember Daysog would like to continue as the liaison as opposed to the alternate, to which Councilmember Daysog responded in the affirmative. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated that she attended East Bay Division monthly meetings with former Councilmember Tam; she would be happy to continue as the East Bay Division representative. Mayor Spencer stated she is not sure about the East Bay Division and requested the voting delegate be discussed first. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated the East Bay Division was mentioned; she would support Councilmember Daysog serving as the League voting delegate at the State level; she was indicating that she attends the locals meetings. Mayor Spencer stated an alternate is needed; inquired whether anyone is interested in being the alternate. Councilmember Daysog inquired if the East Bay Division is different than the League of California Cities, to which Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft responded the League of California Cities East Bay Division is informed about pending legislation; she and former Councilmember Tam brought matters back to Council a couple of times; however, it is not the same as going to Statewide meetings and having a vote at the State level, rather it is the local version of the State League. The City Clerk stated former Councilmember Tam served as both; the City has had one League representative; the League is looking for an East Bay Division representative; the City also needs to have a voting delegate for the annual conference; Council has to decide whether to have one person or whether to break it into two different representatives; in the past, the City typically has had one person; former Councilmember Tam served as both. Mayor Spencer requested staff to explain what Council is being asked to do because said information is contrary to what staff told her. The Assistant City Manager stated Council needs to designate a voting delegate to represent the City of Alameda at the annual conference. The City Clerk stated the Annual Conference is in September. Councilmember Daysog stated Council should iron out the East Bay matter when needed; the voting delegate is the question on the floor. Mayor Spencer stated staff discussed a representative being needed with her; she wants to make sure the City is doing what needs to get done; she was told the East Bay Division is separate.
