Northwest San Pedro Neighborhood Council

DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY TO THE
NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE

WHEREAS, there are numerous Certified Neighborhood Councils (Neighborhood Councils) and it is more efficient for Neighborhood Councils to have a single point of contact with the Department of Water and Power (LADWP) relative to modifications to the Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) it has entered into with Neighborhood Councils; and

WHEREAS, the single point of contact designated by each Neighborhood Council shall be referred to as the Neighborhood Council Oversight Committee (OversightCommittee); and

WHEREAS, each Neighborhood Council may elect to delegate its authority to make modifications to the MOU to the Oversight Committee; and

WHEREAS, DWP recognizes that some Neighborhood Councils may choose not to sign the MOU and would rather interact directly with LADWP;

THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
1. Each Neighborhood Council that agrees to delegate its authority to the Oversight Committee may designate one representative to serve on such Oversight Committee (Oversight Committee Representative).
2. The Oversight Committee Representative shall have the delegated authority from its Neighborhood Council to vote at Oversight Committee meetings on its behalf on any matter that relates to such Neighborhood Council, including but not limited to amendments to the MOU. The Oversight Committee Representative shall be designated in writing to LADWP, and may be changed at any time pursuant to the bylaws of the Neighborhood Council.
3. Each Neighborhood Council signing this delegation of authority shall be bound by a majority vote of the Oversight Committee.
4. Neighborhood Councils that choose not to sign this delegation of authority shall not be bound by any actions of the Oversight Committee.
5. This delegation of authority shall remain in effect until terminated on 30 days written notice by the Neighborhood Council to the Oversight Committee and LADWP.
