Summary

The Baker City Council appointed Jeremy Jackson, a licensed electrician, and Denise Williams, a local community activist, to the Fire and Police Civil Service Board; both appointments were approved unanimously.

The City of Baker appointed two members to the Fire and Police Civil Service Board after President Pastor Murphy submitted the nominations and the council voted to confirm them. Jeremy Jackson, introduced as a licensed electrician who works in the city, and Denise Williams, described by the nominating councilmember as an active community member, were appointed after motions and unanimous roll-call votes.

President Murphy said he had consulted with colleagues before making the appointments and described Williams as a community leader who had raised drainage and crime concerns and who had met with city leadership. Dr. Vincent offered supporting remarks about Williams' community engagement. Council members voted by district and recorded unanimous support for both appointments. The appointments will be forwarded for whatever administrative processing the board requires.

No additional debate or amendments were recorded; the council handled the nominations as part of the boards-and-commissions portion of the agenda.
