DISCUSSION
All appointments to the Teen Council shall be made by the Mayor of the City of Moorpark,
with approval of the City Council, consistent with the adopted Council policy on procedure
for appointments (Policy 2.2). Consistent with Policy 2.2, the Teen Council shall consist of
no less than seven (7) and no more than fifteen (15) members, with a goal of having a
minimum of one (1) representative from each grade level from 7th grade to 12th grade. In
the event there are sixteen (16) applications, Policy 2.2 states that the Council may
appoint sixteen (16) members if it determines doing so would help meet the goal of having
at least one (1) representative from each grade level from 7th grade to 12th grade.
All representatives must be City of Moorpark residents and must be enrolled in school.
Special attention should be given to ensure that all middle schools and high schools in
Moorpark have some representation on the Teen Council. Representatives would typically
be limited to not serving more than a total of three years on the Teen Council to allow more
teens the opportunity to serve as a Teen Council representative.
The City Council’s adopted procedure for appointments (Policy 2.2 [9.]) in Resolution
(2017-3610) is as follows:
A. The Mayor shall solicit suggested nominees from members of the Council.
B. Prior to making a motion for appointment, the Mayor shall announce the
names of all persons he/she intends to nominate, and in the order to be
nominated, for a board, commission, or committee.
C. The Mayor shall then make a motion putting forth each individual name to be
approved for appointment.
D. A second shall be required.
E. The Council shall vote on each appointment individually.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Make 15 appointments to the Teen Council for a one-year term beginning July 1, 2018 and
ending June 30, 2019.
