Subject:Amendment to the Kensington Municipal Advisoy Establishing Resolution and Bylaws to Reduce the Residency
Requirement
BACKGROUND:
The Kensington Municipal Advisory Council (KMAC) bylaws, as reflected Resolution No. 2009/386 require a
three year residency in Kensington to be eligible for appointment to the council.
It has been historically challenging to attract eligible candidates to serve on the KMAC, reflected in seat
vacancies. Supervisor Gioia recommends reducing the residency requirement to one year, to broaden the candidate
pool, while requiring familiarity with the community.

assuming office, and who shall be selected and appointed by the Board of Supervisors, upon nomination by the
District I Supervisor. , from lists of nominees submitted by the Kensington Improvement Club, Kensington
Property Owners’ Association, and the Kensington Municipal Advisory Council. Each organization shall only
nominate residents having the above-listed qualifications. ADOPTED the amended Resolution 2015/264 and
