Report to City Council
To:Honorable Mayor
and Members of the City Council
From:Susan M. Domen, City Clerk
Date:December 13, 2016
Subject:Annual Reorganization of the City Council to Select the Mayor and Mayor Pro
Tem
Recommendation
Select and appoint a Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem per City Council Policy No. 200-4.
Background
City Council Policy No. 200-4 provides direction regarding the selection of the Mayor and Mayor Pro
Tem for the City Council. The Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem are selected annually by the City Council to
serve a one-year term. The selection of the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem is to occur during the first
regular City Council meeting in December each year. The Mayor also serves as Chair of the
Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Lake Elsinore, the Lake Elsinore
Recreation Authority, the Lake Elsinore Public Facility Financing Authority and the Lake Elsinore
Parking Authority. The Lake Elsinore Public Financing Authority is elected by the Members
separately.
Discussion
The procedural format for the selection of the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem is for the current Mayor to
yield the chair to the City Clerk who will open the floor to nominations. Upon closing the nominations
and taking a roll call vote, the City Clerk will declare the Council Member selected to serve as Mayor
by majority vote. The newly selected Mayor will assume the chair and will preside over the selection
of a Mayor Pro Tem.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact to the City.
