STAFF REPORT
DISCUSS AND TAKE ACTION TO APPOINT COMMISSION MEMBERS TO THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE SAN BERNARDINO
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
BACKGROUND:
On Thursday, March 3, 2011, the Mayor and Common Council and the Community Development
Commission of the City of San Bernardino ("Commission") held a Joint Special workshop at the City
of San Bernardino Economic Development Agency ("EDA") Board Room to consider several actions
including the approval of numerous City and EDA projects and to establish contractual relationships
with the San Bernardino Economic Development Corporation ("SBEDC"), and Affordable Housing
Solutions, Inc. (AHS), as a means to assure the continued use of tax increment revenues in furtherance
of City and EDA projects. The issue of appointments of members of the Commission to the SBEDC
Board of Directors was also presented to the Commission at the Joint Special workshop. However, no
appointments were made at that time.
On March 7, 2011, a supplemental agenda item to make the appointments was prepared for the
Commission, at which time the City Attorney opined that the City Charter Section 51 required the
Mayor as Chair of the Commission to make appointments subject to the consent and approval by the
Commission. Due to the fact that the Mayor was out of town on March 7, 2011, such appointments
could not be made at the March 7 Commission meeting and as a result the matter was tabled. This
item is being presented to the Commission to allow the Mayor as Chair of the Commission to make the
appointments as required by the Charter subject to consent and approval of the Commission.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Neither action meets the definition of a"project" under Section 15378 of the California Environmental
Quality Act(CEQA), which states that a"Project" means the whole of an action, which has a potential
for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Community Development Commission approve Motions A and B.
