Over time changes occur, which may necessitate the Council to make amendments to the Municipal Code to properly reflect the status of certain matters. In the present case, the City's provision of law enforcement is provided by a contract approved by the City Council with the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department and not by an internal City Police Department with a City employed Chief of Police. The draft Ordinance would amend the Municipal Code to remove reference to the position of Chief of Police as falling under the City Manager as stated in Section 2.08.070(B) to further clarify the current status. Recommendation: That the City Council introduce and read by title only, Ordinance No. 1007, entitled: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 2.08.070(B) OF THE ROSEMEAD MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE CHIEF OF POLICE 5.
