CtTY.OF SAN BEI()ARDINO - REQUES100R COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Since the adoption of S2.17.035, the various boards, bureaus
and commissions have been provided two alternate members to vote
only if a quorum was not otherwise present. The result has been
even if several of the members of the body were not present and the
alternates attended faithfully meeting after meeting, they could
not vote on matters coming before them.
This proposed amendment would allow the most senior alternate
to vote even if only one regular member was absent and if 2 or more
were absent then both alternates could vote.
