Summary

The council unanimously approved three resolutions confirming appointments to the Planning, Parks & Recreation, and Transportation & Public Safety commissions (terms through June 30, 2028) and invited the appointees to take the oath of office.

The Temple City City Council unanimously approved a slate of commission appointments and administered oaths to the newly appointed members.

A motion to adopt Resolution No. 25-5822 (confirming John Cordis, Kevin Chang, and Jeff Sue to the Planning Commission, terms ending June 30, 2028), Resolution No. 25-5823 (confirming Lance Waldi, Kathy Burroughs, and Joanne Russo to the Parks & Recreation Commission, terms ending June 30, 2028), and Resolution No. 25-5824 (confirming Joe Catalan, Michael Stole, and Jeffrey Zoo to the Transportation & Public Safety Commission, terms ending June 30, 2028) carried on a roll-call vote. Council members Chavez, Chen, Yu, Mayor Pro Tem Man, and Mayor Sternquist each voted yes.

Following the votes, the city clerk administered the oath of office and the new commissioners posed for photographs; the meeting record shows applause and brief remarks of thanks. Council did not record separate discussion or conditions attached to the appointments during the public meeting.

Why this matters: The confirmed appointees will serve three-year terms on advisory commissions that shape planning, parks and recreation, and transportation/public safety advice to the council. The appointments were approved by unanimous vote at the meeting.

What the transcript shows: The resolutions were moved and seconded; a roll-call vote followed with all voting yes. The oath text was read aloud before the council presented certificates and photographs to the appointees.

Next steps: The city clerk was directed to administer the official oath of office; no further council action on these appointments was recorded at the meeting.
