City of Sonoma CSEC Agenda Item Summary CSEC Agenda Item: Meeting Date: 2 11/08/2017 Agenda Item Title Selection of CSEC Chair and Vice Chair Summary Each year, the Community Services and Environment Commission (CSEC) will conduct reorganization by selecting from among its members a Chair and Vice Chair to serve for the upcoming year. The Chair presides at CSEC meetings. The Vice Chair performs the duties of the Chair during the Chair s absence. This reorganization usually takes place at the first regular meeting in December. However, it can occur earlier depending on the circumstances. The selection process proceeds as follows: Chair Brown will ask for nominations for the position of Chair. To make a nomination, CSEC members need only state I nominate. Nominations do not require seconds; however, other members may express support of a nomination by making a seconding speech. When there are no more nominations, Chair Brown will declare nominations for the position of Chair closed and will allow public comments, if any. A roll call vote will then be taken beginning with the first nominee. If that nominee receives a majority vote, they are declared the winner and no additional votes are taken on the remaining nominees. If a majority vote is not achieved for any of the nominees, the nomination and voting process will be repeated, voting on the nominees in the order of their nomination, until a candidate has received a majority vote. The same process will be followed in selecting the Vice Chair. 3

Agenda Item #6.b Model Solar PV Ordinance for Your City The California Energy Commission has developed a Model Solar PV Ordinance to make it easy for cities to require solar PV on new, small scale residential construction. 350 Bay Area is partnering with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District to get the word out and help Bay Area residents work with their cities to adopt the ordinance. We've found seven Bay Area cities currently have some form of Solar PV ordinance (San Francisco, San Mateo, Palo Alto, Fremont, Brisbane, Tiburon and Sebastopol). That leaves about 93 cities to go! 79
