The Community Improvement Corporation on Aug. 11 approved a resolution amending Article 4 of its Code of Regulations to update language on board composition, appointed a community trustee to fill a vacancy and established an executive committee and a meeting schedule for the remainder of 2025.

The board passed the amendment to Article 4 to make trustee appointments reflect the city council’s current structure rather than referencing committee titles that have changed. The revised language recognizes the president of council and two council appointments (selected by council as a whole), maintains seats for the Chamber of Commerce and the chair of the planning and zoning body, and retains an EDCOR trustee and two trustees selected by the CIC membership.

During the meeting the board appointed Tina (of HGR 24 Inc.) to one of the two community trustee seats, effective immediately and serving until Dec. 31, 2025. The appointment was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote.

The board also appointed an executive committee under Article 5, naming Kirsten Holzheimer Gale, Christian Jaros and James Smith to serve as the interim executive committee to manage business between full meetings. The board set the remaining 2025 meeting dates for Tuesday, Oct. 14, at 3:30 p.m. and Monday, Dec. 8, at 3:30 p.m., both at Euclid City Hall, and discussed a drafted virtual-meeting policy submitted to the law department for review that could allow limited use of Zoom for board business.

Board members asked clarifying questions about who qualifies as the two membership-elected trustees and staff confirmed the CIC membership (the organization’s membership) selects those trustees; staff clarified that the membership-selected trustees can be community members elected by the membership body. The motion to approve the code amendment and the appointments passed by voice vote.
