--- (8) ---

Editor's note— Ord. No. 3029 N.S., § 1, adopted April 5, 2011, amended 2-13 in its entirety and enacted new provisions as herein set out. The former 2-13 pertained to Cable Television Advisory Committee and derived from Ord. No. 2240 N.S.; and Ord. No. 2631 N.S., § 1.

Section 2 of Ordinance No. 1696 N.S. provides that the provisions of Section 2-9 of this Code shall take precedence and be controlling, over any provisions contained in Section 2-7 of this Code, which establishes and sets forth the duties of the Recreation and Park Commission, insofar as the latter conflict with Section 2-9.

(At the time Ordinance No. 1696 was adopted, Section 2-7 pertained to the City Recreation and Park Commission; 2-9 pertained to the City Golf Commission.)

There is hereby established a Commission which shall be known as the Golf Commission.

(Ord. No. 3029 N.S., § 1, 4-5-2011)

a. The Commission shall consist of five (5) members, all of whom shall, at the time of their appointment and during their incumbency, be residents of the City.

b. Upon nomination of the Mayor, the City Council shall appoint, between May 1 and July 1 of each year, such members as are necessary to maintain a full Commission, for terms commencing on the first day of July following such appointment and continuing for four (4) years thereafter until the successor of such member is appointed and qualified.

c. No person shall be eligible for the office held by that person for two (2) consecutive terms immediately prior to the term for which the person seeks appointment.

d. A member of the Commission may be removed by the vote of a majority of the City Council. A vacancy in the office of a member shall be filled for the unexpired term by nomination and appointment by the Mayor and the City Council, respectively, for the duration of the unexpired term of office.

(Ord. No. 3029 N.S., § 1, 4-5-2011; Ord. No. 3046 N.S., § 2, 6-6-2012)

a. The Commission shall meet as necessary to perform the duties outlined in subsection 2-13.4. Meetings shall be held on a fiscal year schedule, running July 1 through June 30. The Commission shall have the power to establish rules for its proceedings. The Commission shall select from its regular membership a Chairperson and a Vice-Chairperson, each of whom shall serve in such offices for a term of one (1) year, or until their successors are selected.

b. The votes of a majority of the entire membership of the Commission shall be necessary to take any action thereof.

(Ord. No. 3029 N.S., § 1, 4-5-2011)

It shall be the duty of the Golf Commission to:

a. Advise the City Council on all matters concerning operational policies of the Alameda Municipal Golf Courses and such other golf facilities as may be established by or under control of the City, and to hold hearings, investigate, and do all other things necessary to inform itself with respect to the promotion and successful operation of the courses or facilities. In this connection, the Commission may consult and discuss with, and advise, the Golf Course General Manager respecting course operations and operational policies, subject to administrative duties of the City Manager as set forth in Charter Section 7-2(I).

b. Make recommendations and advise the City Council and other affected City Departments in writing with respect to the matters designated above.

c. Establish necessary regulations and rules to carry out the provisions of this section, and for the proper administration of the affairs of the Commission; provided, however, that fees for play upon the Courses shall be established by action of the City Council.
