Dear City Council,
Why are the Residents of Cupertino missing from Cupertino’s Org Chart in the Budget
document?
According to the new budget document, the City Council no longer officially works for the
Residents of Cupertino.
Why?
The previous org chart had the Residents of Cupertino at the top - - - WHERE THEY
BELONG.
I surveyed a number of other org charts in nearby city budgets and found that the City
Councils consistently report to the Residents.
Please see attached images.
I am dismayed that neither the mayor nor the city manager could explain why this happened at
the Mayor’s monthly meeting on 5/13/2024, and by this time, they were well aware that it had
happened because I reported the issue in oral communications on 5/7/2024. Many residents are
feeling that the omission of residents represents the true sentiments of the City Council and
City Staff. I think that this is a mistake. Please explain how this happened, keep the peace and
fix the org chart.
If you google California City Org Chart, you will find even more California City Org Charts,
overwhelmingly with the residents, citizens, or electorate on top.
