RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Equity and Human Relations Advisory Committee (EHRAC) (1) discuss changing the Labor Representative seat from a one-year term to a two-year term; (2) determine next steps; and (3) provide direction to staff as deemed appropriate.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
During the January 25, 2022 regular meeting, Chair Rebecca Rona achieved consensus to agendize this item at the February 25, 2022 regular meeting. The EHRAC is comprised of seven members at large, one labor representative, and one youth representative, for a total of nine members on the Committee.
The Labor Representative is a member of one of the City’s six employee bargaining units. Any employee who is a member of the Culver City Employee’s Association (CCEA), the Culver City Management Group (CCMG), the Culver City Firefighter’s Association, the Culver City Fire Management Group, the Culver City’s Police Officer’s Association (POA), or the Culver City Police Management Group (PMG), may apply directly to the City Clerk’s Office to be considered for the one designated Labor seat.
Per the EHRAC bylaws, the Labor Representative shall serve a one-year term and shall serve a maximum of two consecutive terms. If a member serves a partial term of more than six months, it shall be considered a full term for the purpose of the Bylaws.
Chair Rebecca Rona achieved consensus to agenize this action item for the entire committee to discuss changing the Labor Representative seat from a one-year to a two-year term. If the EHRAC determines it wishes to do so, a recommended change to the Bylaws would need to go to City Council for approval.
