Council confirms Kawasaki as permanent general manager of CDD
Summary
Los Angeles City Council confirmed Kawasaki as permanent general manager of the Community Development Department and approved a salary adjustment; the appointment passed on an 11-aye roll call, and the appointee said they have 22 years with the city.
The Los Angeles City Council on a roll vote confirmed Kawasaki as the permanent general manager of the Community Development Department (CDD) and approved a related salary adjustment.
The council recorded 11 ayes to confirm the mayor’s appointment. The clerk announced the appointment as the mayor’s permanent selection for the CDD general manager post and that the confirmation includes a salary change. The appointee stated they have worked for the city for 22 years and thanked the council.
Council President called for the confirmation motion and, after no extended discussion, directed the clerk to tabulate the vote. The council’s announcement of an 11-aye tally concluded the matter and the president thanked Kawasaki for returning to serve the city.
The record includes an inconsistency in the appointee’s given first name: the appointment is announced in the transcript first as “William Kawasaki” and later the clerk refers to “Lynn Kawasaki.” The council’s action in the transcript is a confirmation of Kawasaki to the CDD general manager role with an approved salary adjustment.
