City Council Meeting 12 16 25 Agenda Item I1

The City Council of Oxnard convened to discuss the selection process for the mayor pro tem, a role that presides over city council meetings in the mayor's absence and holds equal voting power as other council members. The council considered two common methods for selection, including an open nomination and voting process, as state law does not specify a procedure. The discussion aimed to establish a clear and lawful approach to appointing the mayor pro tem, with the city attorney and clerk available to address any questions during the upcoming council meeting.
