Existing law creates the Pasadena Metro Blue Line Construction Authority for purposes relating to the development of a light rail project extending from the City of Los Angeles to the Cities of Pasadena and Claremont. Existing law provides that the authority shall be governed by a board consisting of 5 voting members and one nonvoting member and requires the authority to adopt a code of conduct for officers and board members of the authority that, among other things, specifies circumstances under which a board member shall be deemed to have a financial interest in a decision. This bill would redefine the authority as the Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority for purposes of these provisions. The bill would provide that the board shall consist of 5 voting members and 3 nonvoting members, would require the additional 2 nonvoting members to be appointed by the City Councils of the Cities of Pasadena and South Pasadena, as specified, and would require each appointing authority to also appoint an alternate member, as specified. The bill would also specify circumstances under which board members and alternate members of the authority shall not be considered financially interested and may participate in decisions and agreements regarding the authority, any appointing authority, and any extension city, as defined. The bill would provide that a board member may simultaneously hold specified governmental positions without the holding of those positions constituting an incompatible office or activity, as specified. Because the bill would impose new duties on local agencies, the bill would create a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
