Milford council names Jason James vice mayor, reappoints interim city solicitor and sets committee rosters
Summary
At its April meeting, Milford's City Council appointed Jason James as vice mayor by voice vote, reappointed interim city solicitor David Rutt, and announced committee chairs and members for the year.
The Milford City Council voted to continue Jason James Sr. as vice mayor and reappointed David Rutt to serve as interim city solicitor while the council seeks a permanent replacement.
A councilmember moved to appoint Jason James to continue as vice mayor and the motion was seconded by Katrina Wilson; the chair called for an aye/no voice vote and the motion carried. The council then reappointed David Rutt as interim city solicitor after noting Rutt had previously announced he planned to retire after 14 years of service; Rutt agreed to remain in the interim role "until we find a permanent one," according to the meeting record. A motion to reappoint Rutt was moved and seconded, followed by a voice vote that the chair recorded as in favor.
Councilmembers also announced committee assignments for the year. The economic development and code enforcement committee will be led by Medulla Calisas with Lori (or Laurie) Connor, Daniel Marabello and Danny Perez as members. The public safety committee will be chaired by Katrina Wilson with Michael Stewart, Lori Connor and Jason James Sr. The finance and audit committee will be chaired by Jason James Sr. with Lori Connor, Daniel Marabello and Danny Perez. Public works and utilities will be chaired by Medulla Calisas with Lori Connor, Danny Perez and Nadia Zichel. The charter review subcommittee listed Jason James, Katrina Wilson, Daniel Marabello and Nadia Zichel. The annexation committee will be chaired by Katrina Wilson with Daniel Marabello, Michael Stewart and Nadia Zichel. Katrina Wilson was also named the council representative to the community cemetery group.
The meeting record shows these votes and appointments were made by voice vote with no roll-call tallies recorded in the transcript and that there was no extended debate on the items.
