Summary

The committee placed advising-consent items on the next regular council agenda: Cathy Williams (Economic Development Commission), Richard Hopeful (Liquor Commission) and Hannah Meese (Historic Preservation Commission).

The Committee of the Whole voted to place three advising-consent items on the council’s regular agenda for formal confirmation, the committee was told Aug. 26.

Those items are the mayoral appointments of Cathy Williams to the Economic Development Commission and Richard Hopeful to the Liquor Commission. A committee member also asked to add the mayoral appointment of Hannah Meese to the Historic Preservation Commission; the member noted the Historic Preservation Commission currently has two members out of seven and said she met with Meese and supported her appointment. Committee members placed all three appointments on the regular council agenda for formal consideration.

No council confirmations took place at the committee meeting. The committee did not record a vote on the appointments beyond placing them on the regular agenda. The mayor or staff will forward materials to council for the next meeting, where final advising-consent votes will occur.
