HISTORIC RESOURCES COMMISSION ACTION
At a special meeting on April 26, 2018, the Historic Resources by a vote of 8:0 received and filed
the Ordinance Amendment to revise the frequency of meetings of the Historic Resources
Commission.

The Historic Resources Commission updated its bylaws on January 28, 2016 establishing quarterly
meetings to be held in January, April, July and October of each year. Currently, Santa Ana
Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 2-372 pertaining to meeting frequency of the Historic Resources
Commission indicates that meetings will be held monthly. In order to establish consistency with the
revised bylaws, Section 2-372 of the SAMC will be amended as follows: "The Historic Resources
Commission shall meet quarterly at dates and times specifically set out and established in the
rules of the commission."
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #5 — Community Health, Livability,
Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #1 (Establish a comprehensive community engagement
initiative to expand access to information and create opportunities for stakeholders to play an
active role in discussing public policy and setting priorities).
