BACKGROUND
The Maddy Act (Government Code Section 54970) was enacted to promote maximum public awareness of appointments to be made by the Governor, the City Council, or other legislative bodies (Government Code section 54970).
In accordance with the provisions of the Maddy Act, on or before December 31 of each year, the legislative body -- the City Council for the City -- must cause to be prepared and posted a list of appointments to all ongoing boards, commissions and committees that are appointed by the City Council. This list must include which terms will expire during the next calendar year with the name of the incumbent appointee, the date of appointment, the date the term expires, and the necessary qualifications for the position (Government Code Section 54972). Accordingly, the List of Appointments was posted in the Library, City Hall, Senior Center and San Pablo Community Center (see attached).
Historically, the list is also posted at the public library with the largest service population within the City. However, in 2018, Government Code Section 54973 was amended to provide that the list be posted either at such library or on the City’s website. The City Clerk’s Office will ensure that the list is posted prominently on the City’s website.
