PRESENT:
Mayor Horton .I ,Deputy Mayor Moot-.L

2. ACTION:
a. CONSIDERATION OF BILLY L. KELLEY'S REQUEST FOR A LEAVE OF
ABSENCE, FOR A PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED NINE MONTHS, FROM THE
BOARD OF ETHICS.
Armando Buelna, Assistant to the Mayor and Council, gave a verbal report relating to
Board of Ethics member Billy Kelley's request He noted that this was the second time the
Mayor and Council had received a request for a leave of absence. In the previous instance,
the subcommittee felt a six-month leave of absence would create problems and could lead
to the inability of Board of Ethics to function effectively. However, in recognizing the
other member's service to his community, the subcommittee, while not approving his
request for a leave of absence, did offer that Board member the first available seat on the
Board of Ethics upon his return.
Mayor Horton questioned whether we could add a name to the list provided by the
Presiding Judge of the South Bay Municipal Court. Mr. Buelna stated that the Presiding
Judge provides a list of qualified applicants. However, the mayor nominates from those
qualified applicants and the council confirms that nomination. Mr. Kelley would be a
qualified applicant having been interviewed and recommended by the Presiding Judge in
the past Furthermore, the subcommittee had set this precedent with the previous request
from the Board of Ethics member.
Deputy Mayor Moot moved staff recommendation.
MOTION: Approved unanimously.
