FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 1492 ESTABLISHING
COMPENSATION AND TERMS OF OFFICE FOR THE BUILDING
BOARD OF APPEALS
Staff recommends that the City Council approve compensation for the Building Board of
Appeals in the amount of $150 per Board Member per meeting attended and establish
staggered terms for the members of that Board.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council have first reading by title only of Ordinance No. 1492.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no significant budget impact related to these increases.
BACKGROUND:
On February 6, 2018, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1486 establishing the
Building Board of Appeals. Prior to the establishment of the independent Building Board of
Appeals (the "Board"), the members of the Planning Commission served as the Board. The
proposed meeting stipend of $150 is consistent with the current per meeting stipend for the
members of the Planning Commission.
Pursuant to section 1573 of the Tustin City Code, the term for each Board Members is four
(4) years commencing on the date of appointment for each office. So that the terms of all
members do not all expire on the same year, staff recommends that the initial appointments
of the Board members be as follows: three (3) members will be appointed to serve four (4)
year terms and two (2) members will serve an initial two year term. Thereafter, all members
would be appointed to serve staggered four (4) year terms.
This structure of staggered terms is consistent with the staggered terms served by the City's
other commissioners.
