Committee reviews board vacancy list, prioritizes economic-development and planning openings
Summary
Appointments staff told the committee that the city will prioritize filling seats on the economic development/Brownfield authorities and the Planning Commission, with the Housing Commission and engineering-related positions to follow.
Appointments staff told the committee the mayor’s office and staff are prioritizing open seats on the economic development / Brownfield redevelopment authority and the Planning Commission and that the Housing Commission vacancy is slated to be filled next week. Several committee members said they are working with the mayor to identify candidates for those boards.
Staff also said they are following up to clarify term lengths for some authorities and encouraged current commissioners and community members to reapply where appropriate so the mayor can review a batch of nominees.
The committee did not take separate formal action on vacancies at the meeting; staff said they will continue outreach to populate the prioritized lists for mayoral consideration.
