The City Manager stated two items would be presented at the workshop: 1) Review and discussion of the City's current Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Unfunded List and 2) Commission appointment and re-appointment process. The Assistant to the City Manager stated there are 13 projects that appear on the CIP unfunded list. Staff has determined that two or three of the projects have appeared on the list for as many as three to four years with no additional funding appropriated. At the March 12, 2001 workshop, staff had outlined an allocation of Prop 12 money in the amount of $587,816 for the Boys and Girls Club, which the City has not received yet. The Assistant to the City Manager stated there is a request, outside of the budgetary process, from Acacia Adult Day Care Services for funding to assist in the development of a facility in Cypress. Council Member Keenan requested some deletions to the list based upon the Wicker Drive project. Mayor Pro Tem Sondhi stated the items removed from the CIP unfunded list should be given to the consultant for the Wicker Drive project. It was the consensus of the City Council to remove the following line items from the CIP unfunded list and add to the Wicker Drive project: tennis court upgrade, enclosure under the Council Chambers, and restrooms under the Council Chambers. Council Member Keenan suggested waiving the development fees for the Acacia Adult Day Care facility. Council Member McCoy stated he would like to see what the other participating cities will be contributing toward the construction of the facility. The City Manager stated staff will obtain additional information that will be brought back to the Council to allow for a more informed decision. The Assistant to the City Manager stated staff has made contact with representatives from the Boys and Girls Club in order to provide a more specific proposal. CiTY COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 25, 2001 It was the consensus of the City Council to have the Boys and Girls Club remain on the CIP unfunded list. The City Manager stated, per Council request, staff surveyed other cities on how they appoint/re-appoint commissioners, types of commissions, and if commissioners receive a stipend. A synopsis of the information gathered was prepared for the Council. The City Manager stated the City of Cypress has six commissions and six separate ordinances, and that it may be more beneficial to consolidate and have one comprehensive ordinance that deals uniformly with all commissions. The Assistant to the City Manager stated 23 of the 33 cities responded to the survey, which was provided to the Council. Council Member Piercy asked for clarification on the past practices of the re- appointment process. The Assistant to the City Manager stated that in the past, the Council has not automatically re-appointed commissioners seeking a second term. Currently, if a commissioner would like to serve a second term, a letter from the commissioner is submitted to the City Clerk. The City Council then reviews the request and makes a decision. Discussion was held on the reviewing process for commissioners seeking re- appointment. The City Manager stated staff will bring back a draft ordinance for Council consideration. At 6:25 p.m., the Mayor recessed the meeting. 7:00 P.M. SESSION: The 7:00 p.m. session of the City Council meeting was called to order at 7:03 p.m. by Mayor McGill.
