City Council

B. Discussion to Consider the City in Becoming a Member of the Independent Cities Association Council Member Steven Ly would like to discuss the possibility of the City of Rosemead becoming a member of the Independent Cities Association, a regional organization of nearly 40 Southern California cities that addresses shared issues such as public safety, education, infrastructure, and intergovernmental collaboration. Independent Cities Association hosts two annual seminars that bring together city council members, officials, and business partners to collaborate, network, and exchange knowledge: a Winter Seminar in February focused on public safety, and a Summer Seminar in July that explores current and emerging issues. Recommendation: That the City Council discuss and provide direction to staff. Staff Report
