Public Works Agency <br />www.santa-ana.org/pw <br />Item # 19 <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br />Staff Report <br />November 2, 2021 <br />TOPIC: Revision of the Environmental and Transportation Advisory Commission Bylaws <br />AGENDA TITLE <br />Adopt Resolution Approving Revised Environmental and Transportation Advisory <br />Commission Bylaws <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />Adopt a resolution whereby the City Council declares newly revised bylaws for <br />governance over the business matters of the Environmental and Transportation Advisory <br />Commission. <br />DISCUSSION <br />In 1991, the City Council established the Environmental and Transportation Advisory <br />Committee (ETAC) by adopting Resolution 91-112. After adoption of various <br />administrative amendments in 1999, an ordinance codified the Committee’s duties in <br />Chapter 33 of the Municipal Code. <br />In 2014, the City Attorney’s Office determined that the ETAC may only advise the City <br />Council on matters related to trees and the urban forest. Thereafter, in 2016, the City <br />Council adopted modernized roles and responsibilities that included the study, review, <br />and recommendation of transportation issues, streetscape issues, and general water and <br />wastewater policies. In 2017, the City Council approved a companion set of revised <br />bylaws. <br />On September 1, 2020, the City Council enacted Ordinance NS-2992, making several <br />charter amendments to the City Code for administrative and modernization purposes, <br />including the renaming of ETAC from Committee to Commission. <br />At the request of several ETAC members, the proposed resolution (Exhibit 1) also <br />updates the bylaws (Exhibit 2) by changing the time of regularly scheduled meetings. It <br />is anticipated that the time change of regular meetings from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on the <br />second Tuesday of each month should facilitate public participation. <br />ETAC approved the changes to the ETAC bylaws on October 12, 2021 by a vote of four <br />in favor of the changes to the bylaws, with two absences and one abstention.
