Full summary

The City Administrative Officer initiated this file on May 21, 2026, to fill a vacancy on the Board of Directors of the Municipal Improvement Corporation of Los Angeles (MICLA), the city's public financing entity for infrastructure improvements. The vacancy opened after the resignation of former board member Neil M. Guglielmo. The MICLA Board of Directors nominated Scott Goldstein as his replacement during its annual meeting on May 19, 2026. The CAO report accompanying the nomination asks the Council to adopt a resolution formally approving Goldstein as a new MICLA director and authorizing any related actions. No fiscal impact statement was submitted, and no community impact statements have been filed. The Budget and Finance Committee took up the matter at a special meeting on June 4, 2026. After allowing an opportunity for public comment, the committee voted 4-0 (with Blumenfield absent) to approve the CAO's recommendation and the authorizing resolution, forwarding the matter to the full Council. The Council must act by July 1, 2026, under a time-limit deadline of July 5, 2026. As of the latest activity on June 4, the appointment awaits a final Council vote.
