BACKGROUND
Per Council Policy 7.4.13, ad hoc advisory committees are created and appointed by the Mayor with a fixed, limited assignment for a particular purpose. No more than three Councilmembers may serve on an ad hoc advisory committee. The policy requires that any action to create or modify the committee must be placed as an item on the Council agenda.

DISCUSSION
With the next phase of the El Camino Real Plan underway, which includes review of the Plan document and possible recommendations to Council, the El Camino Real Plan Advisory Committee (ECRPAC) will reconvene in 2020. The next ECRPAC meeting is scheduled for Thursday, January 23, 2020. Currently, there are two commission nominated vacancies on the ECRPAC: Sustainability and Housing and Human Services.
The Mayor will appoint three Councilmembers to form an ad hoc advisory committee to review and confirm the Commission’s nominations. Mayor Klein announces that Councilmember Russ Melton, Councilmember Mason Fong, and Councilmember Michael Goldman will be the newly formed ad hoc advisory committee. Upon review and confirmation of the two appointments, the term of the ad hoc committee will expire.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Public contact was made by posting the Council agenda on the City's official-notice bulletin board outside City Hall, at the Sunnyvale Senior Center, Community Center and Department of Public Safety; and by making the agenda and report available at the Sunnyvale Public Library, the Office of the City Clerk and on the City's website.
