CC - Item 6B - Proposed 2021 State and Federal Legislative PlatformTO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GLORIA MOLLEDA, CITY MANAGER ,
0
DATE: JULY 27, 2021
SUBJECT: PROPOSED 2021 STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE PLATFORM
SUMMARY
In recent years, a Legislative Platform ("Platform") was developed to provide a streamlined process for
responding to legislative proposals that may impact the City. The proposed Platform identifies the
fundamental legislative issues deemed critical to the City, and upon Council approval, would allow Staff
to efficiently respond to legislative items.
Staff will utilize the Platform as a guideline for requests in support, against, or neutral positions of a
legislative proposal. However, legislative support requiring Resolutions or important and unique issues
would continue to be taken to the Council for formal consideration and adoption. The content in the
proposed Platform has remained relatively unchanged with minor revisions from previous years and uses
the City's Strategic Plan for guidance. Since the City is in the process of developing a new strategic plan,
we want to ensure that the City Council agrees to maintain the same legislative positions. Once adopted,
the Platform would remain in effect for the calendar year. The City Council may add, remove, or modify
items within the adopted Platform throughout the year. The Legislative Platform will also provide staff
with the ability to proactively manage the City's legislative positions and respond to issues that may
significantly impact the City and are within the City's purview.
DISCUSSION
The City Manager's Office will continue to exercise day-to-day oversight of legislative matters as in the
past. In addition to coordinating formal action through the City Council, the City Manager will administer
the Platform as outlined in the document. In summary, staff will work with and review the positions and
analysis done by outside professional associations and our legislative advocates, track bills through the
legislative process, communicate our positions to the appropriate author(s), and meet with all levels of
government to discuss the City's interests, requests, and issues.
