Summary
Farmington City Council approved reappointments to the Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency (MRA) and Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs (PRCA) commissions and the mayor asked for additional commissioner recommendations for planning and zoning and PRCA vacancies.
The council approved reappointments to two citizen advisory commissions and asked the public for recommendations to fill other vacancies. The mayor asked the council to approve reappointments of Doug Dykeman and Tara Taylor to the Metropolitan Redevelopment Agency Commission and Evan Noel, Jordan Richards and Kenneth LeCas to the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs Commission.
Councilor Giacchino moved to accept the appointments; the motion was seconded and the council approved the appointments on a unanimous voice vote. Later, the mayor asked the public to submit recommendations for additional openings on the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs Commission; council members confirmed the vacancies are at-large seats.
Why it matters: commission appointments affect citizen representation on land-use and recreation policy advisory bodies and determine who reviews applications and provides recommendations to the council. The council did not discuss any specific commission business or policy changes during the reappointment vote.
