SUBMITTED BY: City Clerk on behalf of Mayor Robert A. Spiegei DATE: August 27, 2009 CONTENTS: I. Staff Report II. Application of Rolf Hoehn III. Letter of Original Appointment from City of Palm Springs and City of Palm Springs Ordinance No. 1724 Recommendation: By Minute Motion, recommend Rolf Hoehn be reappointed as the City of Palm Desert's Representative to the Palm Springs International Airport Commission for a three-yearterm, July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2012. Background: In November 2007, the City of Palm Springs adopted an ordinance amending the manner in which the Cities of Cathedral City, Coachella, Desert Hot Springs, indian Wells, Indio, La Quinta, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and the Riverside County Board of Supervisors are represented on the Palm Springs International Airport Commission. Commissioners who were in place at the time continued to serve out their terms as appointed by their respective agencies. After that time, the aforementioned agencies would nominate a representative from their jurisdiction for selection and final appointment by the Palm Springs City Council. Mr. Bill Bizzell served as the City of Palm Desert's appointed representative from February 1999 until his passing in 2007. At that time, his three-year term was set to expire June 30, 2009. Subsequently, Palm Desert accepted an application from and recommended Rolf Hoehn to be its representative to the Palm Springs International Airport Commission to fill Mr. Bizzell's vacancy. Mr. Hoehn was recommended on February 14, 2008, and appointed by the City of Palm Springs shortly thereafter. Staff Report - Reappointment to Pa/m Springs International Airport Commission -August 27, 2009 After Mr. Hoehn inquired earlier this summer, the City Clerk's Office communicated with Palm Springs' City Clerk's Office to ask how the term expiration would be handled. The response given was that if it was the City of Palm Desert's desire, it would be appropriate for the City to forward a recommendation for Mr. Hoehn's reappointment and continued service on the Palm Springs International Airport Commission. It is our understanding that Mr. Hoehn has been representing the City very well and provides valuable input to the Airport Commission. Therefore, approval of the recommendation for reappointment is appropriate. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed and concur: � � MAYOR ROBERTA. PI JO N .

Ordinance No. 1724 modified the appointment process, whereby a representative city nominates a member for appointment by the Palm Springs City Council. Such amendment was required for compliance with the City Charter. Based upon input from cities, the City Council modified the ordinance and eliminated the requirement for representative cities to nominate two-members to the Palm Springs City Council for selection and final appointment. Representative cities m�y provide o�ly one nomination to the Palm Springs City Council for possible interview, ratification and appointment. The nomination process is effective upon the expiration of the term of office for the current representative city. Our records indicate the term for ends June 30, 2009 we are sorry to hear of the passinq of Commissioner Bizzell. City Staff recommends for future nominees, representative cities submit the name of the nominee along with background information to the Palm Springs City Clerk, to place the appointment on the City Council agenda. Additionally, effective December 14, 2007, no person shall be eligible to serve or continue to serve as a member of the Commission who has served as a member of certain airport land use commissions or other airport boards or commissions. City Staff Post Office Box 2743 • Palm Springs, California 92263-2743 Representative Cities December 18, 2007 Page 2 recommends representative City Clerks refer to the ordinance and screen potential nominees prior to submitting such nominee for final appointment. On behalf of the City Council and staff, we appreciate the contributions of the representative cities to the Palm Springs International Airport Commission; and to that end, look forward to working with you toward its continued success. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions. Respectfully, CITY OF PALM SPRINGS mes Thompso� City Clerk Enclosures: Ordinance No. 1724 copy: David H.
